Healthy fats
These days, hydrogenated and/or saturated fats are used to some sweets, creams and industrial pastries, which are considered unhealthy. These types of ingredients are also very often found in ultra-processed products. Numerous studies show that regular consumption of these fats contributes to increasing levels of the so-called “bad” cholesterol (LDL), and increases the risk of cardiovascular disease as well as insulin resistance.
As a healthy alternative for consumers and the food industry, Borges has launched the agreena product line, with a healthy nutritional profile. It is made with unsaturated vegetable oils, and its characteristics are perfectly suited to the texture and palatability requirement of the final product.

Origin, sustainability and environment
Borges is strengthening its commitment to the environment with the agreena range of products. The raw materials used in its processing come entirely from traditional European crops, most of which are produced within 300 km from the production centre. This reduces CO₂ emissions and helps in the fight against climate change.
In addition, unlike palm cultivation, which causes the destruction of large tropical forests and risks the survival of fauna and flora, this new product line is also sustainable in terms of cultivation and helps to protect biodiversity.
