At Vitafoods 2024, Lubrizol will unveil LIPOFER microcapsules, showcasing multiple technologies to deliver iron with optimum performance.
These combined technologies overcome issues such as iron's off-taste, reactivity, interaction with other ingredients and colour change.
They also enhance iron absorption with low gastric irritation while providing a pleasant taste that encourages consumers to stick to recommended daily intakes.
LIPOFER caters to increasing consumer demand for science-based products that meet their sensory needs.
Lubrizol will also present Carbopol Polymers for nutraceuticals. The new EU food-grade approval enables nutraceutical manufacturers the ability to differentiate their portfolio and make distinct new product claims.
The multifunctional benefits of Carbopol Polymers provide consumer-centric solutions by creating a convenient way to make tablets smaller and easier to digest.
The unique properties of the polymers can provide stable, controlled- release or suspension of active ingredients, ensuring consistent delivery of nutraceutical benefits.
