dairy
Great looks, excellent flavor, irresistible mouthfeel
Creating dairy foods and beverages that offer consumers the kind of looks, flavor and texture they will keep coming back for is the fundamental aim of dairy manufacturers around the world. Our gelatins and collagens help to reach this goal as they offer key advantages in a variety of dairy applications. They help prevent syneresis, improve foaming and stabilize the aerated structure. A minor addition of gelatin will provide that soft, creamy texture dairy lovers cannot resist.
With gelatin, you can make dairy trendier than it already is
With dairy consumption growing worldwide, our gelatins enable you to seize the opportunity by using gelatin as a reliable means of reducing fat and sugar content, while enhancing looks, flavor and texture. On top of that, gelatin – a pure protein of natural content – is a great ally in the ‘protein push’.

In mousse products, our gelatins and collagens can add value with their foaming, stabilizing and water-binding properties. - Quark
Your quark products in particular will benefit from gelatin’s water-binding and texturizing properties. Our ingredients also help prevent syneresis and improve stability. - Dessert creams
Gelatin in dessert creams has a strong texturizing and water-binding effect, creating a perfect mouthfeel and stability over time. - Creamy yogurts with an improved shelf life
