SuperBlend® Custom Nutrient Premixes

Some production processes can adversely affect the potency or physical appearance of certain nutrients within a blend. Sometimes, ingredient reactivity, instability and off-note sensory characteristics can contribute to significant challenges during product development—or even scale-up stages. Our value-added SuperBlend® premix solutions can help overcome those obstacles by delivering performance and stability in a customer’s end product. Our premixes can respond remarkably well under certain processing conditions, such as high temperatures or high shear that are often used for extruded bars, breakfast cereals and viscous opaque beverages.

Through careful blending of multiple ingredients, SuperBlend® premixes:

•    Consolidate multiple nutrients into a quality-assured, single-step ingredient.

•    Incorporate any combinations of coated SuperCoat® ingredients with uncoated nutrients.

•    Deliver economies of scale by simplifying ingredient procurement through a single supplier.

•    Provide better particle homogeneity via careful blending of multiple ingredients.

•    Decrease warehousing and inventory costs.

•    Prevent settling or layering of ingredients.

•    Possess excellent flow properties, allowing metering that simplifies automatic dispensing and packaging.

SuperCoat®Microencapsulated Nutrients

Vitamins, minerals and other nutrients possess unique characteristics that can affect the appearance, color, and odor of the final food, beverage or dietary supplement product. Microencapsulation is an effective method of masking unwanted sensory characteristics while maximizing nutrient function. SuperCoat®, our most recent innovation using our proprietary SMARTTM process, envelops particles at the microscopic level in a protective shell. This value-added coating technology delivers superior performance and stability of essential nutrients for a wide range of multifunctional ingredients. In addition to this innovative design, all SuperCoat® nutrients are rigorously tested throughout the entire production process and are quality-checked to ensure purity, potence and performance.

SuperCoat® nutrients improve products by offering:

•    Nutrient integrity, for reduced ingredient overages.

•    Superior shelf-life stability.

•    Improved durability in extreme processing conditions.

•    Protection against nutrient reactivity.

•    Enhanced taste and odor masking.

•    Payload and coating flexibility.

•    Sustained and time-release coating technology.
