Glatt is specialized in intelligent particle design for the generation and functionalization of powders and granulates with defined, adjustable properties.
The focus is on particles and powders for pigments, catalytic, ceramic or battery materials as well as for granules and pellets as additives for e.g. industrial salts, detergents and cleaning agents, fertilizers, pesticides, food, feed, dietary supplements and pharmaceuticals.
Encapsulation of flavors, enzymes, vitamins, microorganisms, probiotics or fatty acids (PUFA) is just as possible as encapsulation of essential oils and other active, sensitive substances to be protected.

With Glatt APPtec®, a unique technology for spray calcination, it is possible to generate, coat and then calcine particles in a pulsing hot gas stream in a single process step. As a pioneer in fluid bed and spouted bed technologies, Glatt masters these important processes for the formulation and optimization of particle properties through defined spray agglomeration, spray granulation, spray coating or (micro)encapsulation as well as through combinations of these processes. Also in the high temperature range. Glatt supports the product idea from the early phase of product formulation through process development to scale-up to production scale.
Under the leadership of the Glatt Process & Plant Engineering teams, customized production plants for nutrition, fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and biotech applications are successfully planned and commissioned. Worldwide.

Whether based on powder synthesis, fluid bed or spouted bed technology, Glatt also offers certified contract manufacturing for customers without their own production capacities.

Striving for efficient phosphorus recycling solutions Phosphorus recycling from sewage sludge: more fertilizer, fewer heavy metals
Striving for efficient phosphorus recycling solutions
Phosphorus recycling from sewage sludge: more fertilizer, fewer heavy metals Phosphorus is essential as an agricultural fertilizer. Globally, this indispensable element is becoming increasingly scarce, putting an increasing focus on recovery where natural phosphate deposits are rare. Glatt Ingenieurtechnik GmbH has further developed its patented PHOS4green fertilizer production process so that sewage sludge ash from conurbations with high heavy metal contents can be used. Their removal means that fewer pollutants are released into the environment. Glatt has expanded its PHOS4green process to facilitate the legally compliant recovery of valuable materials from sewage sludge ash contaminated with heavy metals With sustainability now a global priority, the development of circular economies is top of mind throughout society, business and politics. The efficient use of resources, especially the recycling of waste products from material cycles, is becoming increasingly important. A good example is sewage sludge ash. Owing to its high phosphorus

Drying liquids – Best technology for nutraceuticals The desired end product properties can make a difference when choosing between spray drying or spray granulation
Drying liquids – Best technology for nutraceuticals
The desired end product properties can make a difference when choosing between spray drying or spray granulation Both spray drying and fluid bed spray granulation can be used to convert liquid products into bulk materials. The most effective process will often be dictated by the desired properties of the final particles and the specific application. Glatt Ingenieurtechnik has a thorough understanding of both techniques and has a long history of designing fluid bed systems that are tailored to individual customer products. Drying solids-laden liquids is frequently used in industry to convert products into a more manageable form and enable their storage at ambient temperatures. The resulting bulk materials are not only more stable than the liquid raw materials, they also have lower weights and smaller volumes, significantly reducing transportation and storage costs as well as any handling issues. To dry liquids as quickly as possible, spraying them into a hot air stream (spray drying) is very effective. It has been used for decades to quickly and cost-efficiently dry large-volume

Spray agglomerating of plant-based milk alternatives
Using fluidized bed spray agglomeration, particle size distribution, particle structure and particle properties can be specifically adjusted and improved. Spray agglomeration of plant-based milk alternatives for perfect wetting and dispersing properties Powdery substances often cause problems during dosing, filling and transport because of their high dust content and poor flowability. Low solubilities and dispersing properties also impair the application of the end product. With the help of fluidised bed spray agglomeration, the size distribution and structure of difficult-to-process particles can be specifically adjusted and improved. According to a study by the Research and Markets Institute, the global market for plant-based milk alternatives will grow at an estimated annual rate of 9.9% until 2025 (vegconomist 2020). Market shares of almond and soy milk are expected to grow particularly rapidly, at 40% and 37% respectively. At the same time, the application and use of powdered products is increasing. Benefits include the fact that less packaging required, which is more sustainable, and transport is both easier

From process development directly to contract manufacturing
With short time-to-market: Particle and functional design from the fluid bed market leader The Glatt Group’s customers benefit from bundled expertise in particle design – from the initial feasibility test, through scale-up, to validation of the production process. Glatt offers suitable solutions for every variant and, if required, also implements customer-specific processes. Contract manufacturing has to fulfill very varied requirements. Some companies permanently outsource their production and permanently request large quantities. Others require flexible production slots to compensate for highly fluctuating requirements in terms of volume. Often, a mature product idea exists, but the innovators do not yet have the suitable technology. For the production and refinement of solid product formulations, a wide variety of tasks are commonplace: from nanodispersed powders for high-tech applications, to matrix-encapsulated feed and food additives in granule and pellet form, to products with a modified release of active ingredients.

Anti-reflective solutions for laser inertial confinement fusion Joint project “nanoAR” launched for solutions for the clean energy supply of the future
Anti-reflective solutions for laser inertial confinement fusion
Joint project “nanoAR” launched for solutions for the clean energy supply of the future New and robust anti-reflective solutions for laser inertial confinement fusion Laser fusion power plants will be the basis for a clean energy source of the future. In order for these to work efficiently and reliably in the future, laser technologies must be available that meet the requirements for high performance and continuous operation. As part of the funding program “Basic technologies for fusion – on the way to the fusion power plant”, the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) is funding the joint project “nanoAR” with six million euros. In this new research project, nine project partners from industry and research are working on methods for the prevention of near-surface damage and structural reflection reduction of the optical components used. Their approaches could also be transferred to other fields of application for high-performance optics. In laser inertial confinement fusion, high-precision and high-energy laser beams are used

Controlled release of active ingredients with the right coating The right coating for detergents, salts, fruit acids and many other products. Improve the functionality of your product through controlled release.
Controlled release of active ingredients with the right coating
The right coating for detergents, salts, fruit acids and many other products. Improve the functionality of your product through controlled release. Controlled release of active ingredients is a key task for the formulation of pharmaceutical dosage forms. In addition to bioavailability, the release of the active ingredient from the tablet or active ingredient pellets determines its concentration in the blood. The properties of the polymer film, the pH-dependent solubility, the film thickness or the defined porosity are just some of the adjustable parameters to achieve the desired reproducible release kinetics. The key to success lies in the right coating process. For demanding solutions, Wurster coating in the fluid bed has established itself here. Functional active or auxiliary substances are now also used in other branches of industry. As early as the 1990s, detergent and cleaning agent manufacturers started initial trials with fluid bed coating processes for the introduction of dishwasher tabs, in order to release individual components of the tabs at the right time. For example, a water-soluble component was
