MUNDELEIN, IL / ACCESSWIRE / June 9, 2015 / Z Trim Holdings, Inc. (ZTH) (PINKSHEETS: ZTHO), an AgriTech company providing value-added ingredients to a variety of industries, today announced that its insoluble fiber ingredient, also called Z Trim, is now in the commercially available products of 4 of the top 25 meat companies. These products are sold at a quick-serve-restaurant chain, convenience stores, warehouse stores and supermarkets.

While we cannot disclose the name of these specific customers for confidentiality reasons, it is very gratifying to see the investments we have made into serving the meat industry begin to bear fruit, said Z Trim CEO Ed Smith. Given the rising costs of meats, our ability to profitably extend the yield of meat products by up to 30% has clearly received the industrys attention. We look forward to continued growth as our existing customers add Z Trim to more of their products. We also have some exciting pilot projects with new potential meat customers that we hope to convert to Z Trim customers this year.

My 40 years of experience in meat R&D tells me that Z Trim is about to take off, said Chandler Horton, an External Consultant to the Company and the former VP of R&D at Keystone Foods. I have seen this before with soy protein where everyone knew it worked but it only became a widely adopted staple when the industry leaders began using it. The dynamic is similar with Z Trim as the feedback from my industry contacts has been outstanding. Now that the Company has this validation, I will enjoy helping them reach the next level.

The Company invites interested parties to watch a demonstration video of Z Trim extending meat products on its home page at www.ztrim.com. Applications range from beef and steak patties to pork, poultry and fish products. Our all-natural ingredients can also provide cost savings in seasonings and blends for meat products. The Companys applications team stands ready to engage additional potential customers of all sizes interested in learning more.

ABOUT Z TRIM

Perhaps most significantly, Z Trim's products can help extend yields, and thereby increase its customers' gross margins.

These industrial ingredients are highly functional in applications for adhesives, binders, viscofiers and emulsifiers.
