FLour INNovations

Flour type carrier

Many products (including enzymes, amino acids, vitamins, flavours, etc.) are rafted onto a carrier material. The carrier substance is selected in accordance with the parameters below depending on the final application or production process:

  • Particle size: fine or coarse carrier material depending on the desired flow and absorption characteristics.
  • Stability requirements:
    Sharply reduced moisture content: prevent hydrolysis of the coated material.
    Killing of microbial flora: prevent an enzymatic breakdown of the coated products by bacteria.
  • Colour of the carrier material: varies between white and brown.

We have a specific carrier substance in our range for all of these different conditions:

ETF.FI.5-8% Course carrier flour (Max 25%<250µm and 99,9%<500µm) with a water content of maximum 8%
ETF.FI.5-12% Same as ETF.FI.5-8% but with a water content of maximum 12%
ETF.FI.4
Micronised version of ETF.FI.5-12% (Max 65%<250µm and 99,9%<500µm)

Pizarro

A flour type with a very precise particle size (~65% between 125 and 180 µm) and a moisture content of maximum 0,9%.
Vasco Debacterised flour with a total plate count of lower than 10.000 cfu/g and a moisture content lower than 8%.
