Redefining Carbonation Stability
Lock in the Fizz. Optimize Packaging. Reduce Waste.
IMBEVIA CO₂ Stabilizer is a revolutionary liquid additive designed to encapsulate CO₂ bubbles, ensuring your beverage delivers the perfect sensory experience from the bottling line to the consumer’s glass.
The Challenge of Carbonation
In the competitive landscape of Carbonated Soft Drinks (CSD), maintaining CO₂ stability is crucial for consumer satisfaction. Factors such as bottling conditions, transport, and shelf life often lead to carbonation loss, affecting the “fizz” and freshness of the final product.
The IMBEVIA Solution
IMBEVIA addresses these challenges by using an advanced encapsulation process. This liquid additive blends easily into concentrated syrups, stabilizing the CO₂ within the liquid matrix. It is designed to boost production efficiency while meeting modern sustainability goals.
Key Benefits
- Enhanced Carbonation: Delivers a longer-lasting fizz and a superior sensory experience for the consumer by preserving gas levels significantly longer than standard formulations.
- Sustainable Packaging: Enables the use of lightweight PET bottles without compromising product integrity. This directly supports environmental sustainability goals and reduces plastic usage.
- Energy Efficiency & Cost Reduction: Enhanced CO₂ dissolution and dramatically reduced foaming enable filling at higher temperatures, increase filling speed, and significantly reduce product waste in the filler machine. As a result, the entire production process is optimized while energy consumption and operational costs are directly lowered.
- Extended Shelf Life: Maintains beverage freshness for an extended period, minimizing returns and waste across the supply chain.
Technical Specifications & Application
How It Works
IMBEVIA functions by encapsulating carbon dioxide bubbles, preventing them from coalescing and escaping the liquid. This stabilization is effective even under challenging conditions such as vigorous handling or temperature fluctuations.
Usage Instructions
- Format: Liquid additive.
- Integration: Blends directly into concentrated syrups.
- Recommended Dosage: 0.1 grams per kilogram (as per standard testing protocols).
Performance Evaluation
We validate our product performance using rigorous testing methods, including:
- Sensory Tests: Blind evaluations by trained experts and consumers to assess fizziness.
- Gas Measurement:

Questions? You’re covered
Imbevia employs proprietary encapsulation technology to securely trap and retain CO₂ in the liquid phase, delivering up to 40% better carbonation retention during bottling, storage, and transport—even at elevated temperatures. With a very low dosage of only 0.1 grams per kilogram, it integrates easily, simplifies formulation, supports clean-label trends, extends shelf life, and significantly reduces quality losses.
It ensures more uniform CO₂ distribution, providing consistent, pronounced effervescence and a satisfying mouthfeel from the first sip to the last. This results in a noticeably more reliable and enjoyable sensory profile compared to untreated beverages—frequently reflected in customer feedback and blind taste tests showing increased consumer preference.
CO₂ Stabilizer reduces foam generation to approximately one-quarter of standard levels, minimizing splashing, line stoppages, and rework. This enables higher filling temperatures and significantly faster line speeds—leading to smoother operations, increased output, lower energy consumption, and more predictable production runs, as consistently reported by manufacturers.
By maintaining carbonation stability in thinner, lightweight PET bottles without compromising quality, it reduces the need for excessive CO₂ injection and lowers reject rates. These improvements help decrease plastic usage, minimize production waste, and support broader sustainability objectives—a benefit frequently highlighted in reviews by environmentally focused clients.
Imbevia outperforms conventional alternatives through its ultra-low dosing, superior CO₂ retention, dramatic foam and waste reduction, extended marketability, and proven enhancement of consumer appeal. Performance can be easily validated with side-by-side tests such as sensory panels, foam height/collapse measurements, or direct CO₂ analysis—delivering clear, measurable advantages in real-world carbonated soft drink (CSD) applications.
