New “Smart Technology” concept

At the HiE trade show, Gelita will present the first in a new series of “Smart Technology” solutions. Collagen Peptides ST is a range of enhanced in­gredients that brings an optimized per­formance level and an improved processing performance. Building on Gelita’s existing product range Collagen Peptides ST provide physiological functionalities and technological functionalities. Both exhibit improved process performance, namely less dust during handling, fewer clumping issues during dissolution, improved wettability and higher bulk densities. Potential applications include the fortification of clear, high-protein gummies with a protein content of up to 35 %, and as a nutritious binding agent in cereal bars or coated products. The optimized bulk density means it’s now possible to increase the amount of ­Bioactive Collagen Peptides® that for example can be included in a hard capsule shell. Depending on the product and process requirements, viscosity and drying times can be adjusted to provide optimal results. ST products are non-allergenic and can be used to achieve a clean and clear label.
