overview
About our Flaxseed Fibre
Midlands Flaxseed Fibre is a finely milled flax flour produced from premium New Zealand-grown seed. High in natural fibre and plant-based nutrition, it is ideal for health-focused brands and manufacturers seeking clean-label ingredients with full traceability.
Flaxseed Fibre is a co-product of the Flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum) after the oil has been extracted. This fibre originates in a pellet form which is commonly referred to as Flaxseed Meal and is then further milled (Cold Processed) to produce the final flour product. Flaxseed Fibre contains protein necessary for tissue building and repair, which contributes the growth and maintenance of muscle mass and bone normality. Flaxseed Fibre also has high levels of dietary fibre both soluble and insoluble which contributes to regular laxation. In addition, the oil component provides the Essential Fatty Acids (EFA’s) Alpha Linolenic Acid (Omega 3, ALA) and Linoleic Acid (Omega 6, LA). We cannot produce these EFA’s ourselves, and therefore they need to be an essential part of our daily diet, making it an ideal functional food ingredient. Flaxseed Fibre provides nutrients that will ensure optimum health and well being for the whole family, and it can easily be incorporated into the daily diet.

From nutritional benefits to processing tips, we aim to provide clear, practical information to help you make informed decisions - whether you’re a food manufacturer, distributor, or ingredient buyer.
Is flaxseed high in fibre?
Whole flaxseeds and ground flaxseed are high in both soluble and insoluble fibre, supporting digestion and gut health. Flaxseed oil itself contains fats but no fibre. Fibre-rich flax ingredients like flax meal and flax fibre are widely used in bulk for food production and health products.
Is flaxseed a good form of fibre?
Yes, flaxseed is an excellent source of natural dietary fibre, supporting digestion, satiety, and balanced gut health. It also contains plant-based omega-3s. Bulk flaxseed fibre, flaxseed meal, and ground flaxseed are popular with manufacturers creating high-fibre or functional foods.
