Pea Protein

Merit’s pea proteins are ideal ingredients to give your products a much-needed nutritional boost while staying dairy-free, soy-free, grain-free, and gluten-free.

We’ve solved the pea protein puzzle. Our solution starts with Western Canadian grown peas which are then processed at our state-of-the-art facility in Winnipeg, MB, with our patented extraction process, which significantly reduces the intensity of the pea flavor. The result is a highly soluble protein with a robust amino acid profile, eliminating many of the previous barriers to usage. Higher purity, creamy texture and highly functional pea proteins – without sacrificing taste.
