‘Whole’, the new bottled water product developed by Fonterra utilises Fonterra Ingredients’ ClearProtein™, a whey protein isolate developed at the Fonterra Research Centre in Palmerston North, New Zealand. Due to its milk content, Fonterra have advised the drink is not suitable for anyone with cow's milk allergy.

While ‘Whole’ is only available in New Zealand at the moment, Fonterra are advertising their ClearProteinTM ingredient range to food manufacturers worldwide and claim it can be used in a wide range of applications, such as functional waters, sports beverages, jelly drinks and weight management beverages.
