Designed for everyday use, Taj Agro Pea Protein 80% can be incorporated into protein shakes, smoothies, breakfast preparations, nutritional beverages and protein-enriched recipes.
Available in convenient 500 g and 1 kg consumer packs, Taj Agro aims to make plant-based protein accessible to individuals looking for practical nutritional solutions.

Understanding the Protein and Amino Acid Profile
Protein plays an essential role in the human body. It contributes to the maintenance and growth of muscle mass and supports normal tissue development and repair.
Taj Agro Pea Protein 80% provides a range of essential amino acids, making it a useful ingredient in plant-based nutrition.
Important amino acids found in pea protein include:
| Amino acid | Nutritional role |
|---|---|
| Leucine | Involved in muscle protein synthesis |
| Isoleucine | Supports normal muscle metabolism |
| Valine | Involved in energy metabolism |
| Lysine | Supports tissue growth and repair |
| Threonine | Required for normal protein formation |
| Methionine | Essential amino acid for normal metabolism |
| Phenylalanine | Building block of proteins |
| Tryptophan | Precursor for serotonin |
| Histidine | Important for protein synthesis |
Pea protein is particularly appreciated for its lysine content. It is relatively lower in sulfur-containing amino acids, making combinations with rice protein useful for developing complementary plant-based protein blends.
How Is Pea Protein Manufactured?
Pea protein production involves several processing stages designed to separate and concentrate the protein naturally present in yellow peas.
A typical wet-extraction process includes:
1. Raw Material Selection
Quality yellow peas are selected according to raw material specifications and suitability for protein processing.
2. Cleaning and Dehulling
The peas are cleaned to remove dust, stones and foreign particles. The outer seed coat is removed.
3. Milling
The cleaned peas are milled into flour to facilitate the separation of protein from other components.
4. Protein Extraction
The pea flour is processed with water under controlled conditions to extract the protein fraction.
5. Separation and Concentration
Separation techniques are used to remove starch, fibre and other non-protein components.
6. Purification
The extracted protein fraction undergoes further processing to achieve the required protein concentration.
7. Spray Drying
The concentrated protein is dried into a fine powder under controlled conditions.
8. Quality Testing and Packaging
The finished powder is tested against approved product specifications before hygienic packaging and batch release.
This is a general description of the industry manufacturing process. The actual process used for the supplied Taj Agro grade should be confirmed against its manufacturing documentation.
