Encapsulation

dsm-firmenich Encapsulation Technology Is The Gold Standard In The Industry, Leading The Market For Decades And Serving As The Industry Benchmark For Balancing Flavor Protection And Release To Ensure Maximum Impact.

In Addition To Addressing Your Needs Concerning Appearance, Cost, Labelling, And Transparency.

Our Approach To Flavor Delivery And Flavor Release Focuses On Three Key Benefits:

PROTECTION: Understanding processing conditions means that we know how to apply the right level of protection to ensure that the flavor is not lost before reaching the consumer.

BETTER HANDLING: Ease Of Use In The Factory And Homogenous Mixing Ensure That no flavor is lost. By Limiting the Opportunity For Interactions With Other Components In The Food Base, We Minimize The Risks Of The Flavor Profile Being Altered.

CONTROLLED RELEASE: Protecting The Flavor Through The Process Is The First Step. It Is Also Critical To Control The Moment Of Delivery. dsm-firmenich’s Systems Guarantee That The Flavors Are Released At Just The Right Moment To Please The Consumer.

Why Encapsulation®?

Spray-Dried Flavors Are Widely Used Due To Their Cost-Effective Nature And Are Suitable For Many Applications. However, Some Of Their Benefits Come With Distinct Limitations. The Small Particle Size May Cause Dusting, Which Would Require Manufacturing Optimizations That Risk Offsetting Any Savings. Additionally, Their Large Surface Area To Volume Ratio Delivers Increased Odor But With Only Limited Shelf-Life, Restricts Usage To Certain Applications. Finally, High Temperatures Required During Manufacturing To Evaporate Water Not Only result in A Change In The Flavor Profile But Also require high Energy Usage, Negatively Impacting The Sustainability Of Production.

When These Limitations Limit The Use Of Spray-Dried Flavors, It’s Time To Consider dsm-firmenich ENCAPSULATIONS®, Which Offer Four Superior Flavor Delivery Technologies To Fit Your Specific Technical And Application Needs.”
