Calcium boosters for foods and drinks

Calcipur
Omya’s high purity calcium carbonate portfolio is suitable for a wide variety of functional foods. Thanks to its high elemental calcium content of approximately 40%, Omya Calcipur is one of the most concentrated sources of calcium in the market. That makes it possible to use up to five times less of this ingredient than other available technical solutions while achieving the same calcium dose in a finished foodstuff. Fields of application include baby products, vegan drinks, bakery produce, snack bars and breakfast cereals. Depending on the dosage used, calcium-related claims can be made on pack. One of the main advantages of Omya Calcipur is the low dosage needed for supplementation, resulting in reduced costs and less impact on the sensory profile of the final foodstuff . Comprising different grades of natural calcium carbonates, Omya’s portfolio enables manufacturers to produce the best possible results in terms of nutrition and taste. Demand for calcium is expected to grow in the coming years. Because of demographic changes and aging populations, experts predict that the number of people suffering from osteoporosis will increase significantly. But it’s not just the elderly who can benefit from calcium fortification. An increasing number of consumers are omitting dairy products from their diet. Offering functional foods that remove the risk of developing calcium deficiency disorders is, therefore, an important task for the food industry.

Building block system for flexible use of injection brines and seasonings

Cooked ham, cured meat, pork, poultry and beef products are traditional meat classics. Due to their low fat content, cooked ham products also meet the dietary demands of increasingly health-conscious consumers. Nowadays, more and more attention is being paid to both quality and ingredients when meat and sausages are served. With its latest generation of injection brines for trade and industry, RAPS has committed itself to the further development of concepts that are as clean, sustainable and functionally convincing as possible. In addition to products for organic cooked ham, a specific VLOG-approved injection brine has also been developed for the industry (VLOG = certified GMO-free according to the German VLOG “ohne Gentechnik” production and certification standard).
