Premium lactose for infant formula and other food applications
Our Premium lactose products target infant formula and other food applications that place the highest demands on microbiological food safety. Free from annatto and bleaching agents, they exceed the strictest international standards and are suitable for dry blending. Dry blending of infant formula with our Premium lactose improves your flexibility and efficiency and can potentially increase your production capacity by up to 25%.
