MEGGLE goes Infant Nutrition – with Premium Quality Lactose by 2017
With its 125-year history in milk processing and 70 years of experience in producing lactose for the food industry, Meggle is one of the leading players in this field. The company have been supplying the pharmaceuticals industry with premium-quality lactose as excipients for 50 years.
Throughout these years, Meggle has gained extensive expertise in processing whey and manufacturing highly specialized lactose products.
Based on its many years of experience in whey processing, MEGGLE has decided to take the next step in the manufacture of high-quality lactose: the new business unit Meggle Nutrition was set up to focus on this market.
From 2017, highly specialised technologies and cutting-edge production facilities will enable Meggle reliably to provide the product properties and qualities required for baby-food lactose.
At its Wasserburg location, the company is investing around €35 million in a new, state-of-the-art production facility specially designed for and dedicated to baby-food lactose production.
