Kröner-Stärke expands range of clean label agglomerated ingredients By Gill Hyslop According to the clean label ingredients specialist, its portfolio of agglomeration ingredients answers a raft of technical challenges, but also present a huge opportunity for producers wanting to produce clean label products.
Agglomeration can provide answers to many of today’s product development challenges. The process enlarges the particles within a substance by joining together smaller particles to form a granulate or ‘blueberry’ structure.
Using agglomerated ingredients can help producers develop products that have improved flowability and dispersion in a solution, easier lump-free stirring, along with reducing dust during processing. Powder handling in a bakery can lead to significant health concerns as exposure to dust can cause occupational asthma and rhinitis.
