Vitafoods

Meet the Glatt experts at the Vitafoods in Geneva. 5 -7 October 2021 at booth K230 Are you looking for optimal conditions when it comes to optimizing the product properties of your ingredients: better bioavailability, flowability and dust-free properties, improved solubility, tabletable agglomerates, pellet formulations with functional coating, spraying of active ingredients with controlled release, extracts with solvents, drying of solvent-based products, microencapsulation of volatile and sensitive substances? When developing and launching new products, speed is a success factor. But sensitive ingredients and especially solvent-based processes present manufacturers with technological challenges. At the Technology Center of plant manufacturer and process expert Glatt, you will find support – from the initial idea to scale-up to industrial scale. Unique in particle design by the complete supply chain from the product idea to production from one source: Technology transfer, plant design and factory engineering for functional powders, granules and

An overview of essential oil and vitamin case studies Phytochemicals are increasingly found in many food, chemical and agricultural items. Product and process optimization is becoming ever-more important in all of these industries, with a focus on quality, manufacturing efficiency, stability and formulation costs. Essential oils are volatile substances with a relatively high vapor pressure; they are susceptible to oxidation and light and may change or may even lose their properties when directly exposed to stressors. Like other sensitive, volatile, odor- or taste-intensive liquid active ingredients, they must therefore be protected from the environment or vice versa. For this protection and to simplify handling — as well as for better dosage and targeted release — these substances are therefore progressively offered and used in encapsulated and/or free-flowing forms. Various processes can be used to deliver products with a compact structure. During process development, the most suitable procedures and equipment
