Dairy products

Yogurts have a positive image and are considered nutritious dairy products. Both spoonable and drinkable yoghurts are a way to meet the growing consumer demand for healthy snacking with:

• higher protein intake
• less fat
• less sugar

Yoghurt manufacturers want a homogeneous and stable texture, a rich and creamy mouthfeel, as well as enrichment solutions and recipe cost optimisation. Our ingredients answer these particular needs with:

• Skimmed milk powder for a milky taste
• Laktein® WPC 80 to increase gel strength, viscosity and reduce syneresis
• WPC 35 as a functional source of protein
• Calciane for milk calcium enrichment
• Lactowell whey permeate as a cost effective solution

In line with the growing demand for dairy products and “on-the-go” trend, beverages are suitable to different lifestyles and diets. Thanks to their adaptable formulas, our range of dairy solutions can meet many different needs, including:

• Protein and milk calcium enrichment
• Heat stability
• Protein standardisation
• Costs savings

Using dairy ingredients will help achieve both nutritional and functional assets:

• Calciane as a source of natural milk calcium
• Skimmed milk powder for a milky taste
• Flowhey® as a source of cost-competitive solids with a clean dairy taste and heat stable properties
• Demlac 8000 demineralised whey powder for a mild flavour
• Lactowell whey powder as a cost effective solution.

Recombination is a way of obtaining good quality dairy products in some countries where there is no available fresh milk.

To respond to these particular needs, dairy ingredients can be used to produce UHT milk, sweet condensed milk, yoghurts, or ice cream. Our customers have precise expectations regarding ingredients they are looking for, including:

• Dairy flavour
• Texturising properties
• Creamy mouthfeel
• Easy incorporation
• Recipe cost optimization

We provide solutions for recombined dairy products such as:

• Low heat skimmed milk powder for soft cheese manufacturing
• UHT skimmed milk powder for recombined milk
• Whole milk powder with an adequate protein content for yoghurts or drinks
• Fat-filled dairy powders for beverages or fermented products
• Flowhey® heat stable sweet whey powder
• Lactose and Lactowell whey permeate
• Demlac 8000 demineralised whey powder

The ice-cream market is mainly driven by pleasure and new healthier solutions (clean label, natural and authentic recipes) in developed countries. In emerging regions, the consumption is fast developing thanks to impulse buying.

Each kind of ice cream (bulk, soft, Italian-style or extruded ice cream) requires specific functionalities:

• Extrusion capacity
• Meltdown delay
• Shrinkage reduction
• Emulsification properties
• Recipe costs optimization

For all these requirements, we offer dairy solutions such as:

• Milk powders to bring milky taste, extrusion capacity and shrinkage resistance
• Buttermilk powders to enhance taste and creaminess
• Anhydrous milk fat and butter to improve texture and organoleptic qualities
• Whey proteins (Laktein 30, Fromy 35, Pronativ® 80) to optimise meltdown delay and creaminess
• High fluidity Flowhey® sweet whey powders to enhance creaminess while reducing recipe costs.
