SternVitamin Presents New Product Ideas For Beverage Manufacturers
In close co-operation with its customers, Stern Vitamin develops special vitamin and mineral premixes for foods, beverages and food supplements. At HI Europe the company will be presenting its latest new products for the beverage industry. They include combinations of active ingredients for use in energy or relaxing drinks and premixes specially designed for products directed towards specific target groups – for athletes, to maintain healthy bones or to support the immune system. “Our new ideas also include so-called ‘love-boost’ drinks with stimulating plant extracts such as damiana powder,” says Dr Sabine Hildebrandt from Stern Vitamin’s Research & Development department.
In the production of its premixes, SternVitamin uses state-of-the-art technology such as fluid-bed drying. “With our fluid-bed processor we can convert powders which do not dissolve readily in water into agglomerates with a porous structure which have much better water solubility,” Dr Hildebrandt continues. Other processing steps – drying, granulating or coating – can be carried out on this plant too. The experts from SternVitamin will explain the details at HI Europe, on stand No. D 40.
