Consumer demand continues to evolve towards products containing less additives. To help customers meet this need, Divi’s Nutraceuticals has developed a high quality free-from ingredient range called Novel Application. As an expert in chemical synthesis and formulation, Divi’s has the technical capabilities to produce silicon dioxide-free spray-dried products with the same performance and characteristics as conventional spray-dried products, resulting in nanoparticle-free ingredients. Moreover, these products contain no synthetic antioxidant, no palm oil and no added sugar, while maintaining excellent stability and texture. Divi’s Novel Application carotenoids and vitamins can be used either in supplements or to fortify and colour a variety of liquid and dry foods and beverages.
Divi’s Nutraceuticals will present another innovation, AstaBead. Divi’s and Algalif have joined their expertise to develop highly concentrated beadlets of sustainable natural astaxanthin. Algalif’s production process, located in Iceland, uses renewable energy, and provides premium astaxanthin oleoresin naturally sourced from microalgae. Divi’s transforms this oleoresin into exclusive, easy-to-handle AstaBead beadlets that contain 5% astaxanthin – the highest concentration on the market – allowing smaller tablets and hard-shell capsules. AstaBead beadlets also show excellent performance in applications such as nutritional bars. The AstaBead range includes a fast-dispersing form of astaxanthin benefiting from Divi’s innovative CaroQuik formulation. It is suitable for the fortification of powdered beverages, whether packaged in canisters or in today’s popular disperser sticks and caps.
At Vitafoods 2023, Divi’s Nutraceuticals will showcase its Vitamin D3 500 SD, a high potency spray-dried powder providing 500,000 IU per g. The cutting-edge manufacturing technology ensures constant particle size distribution and an optimised concentration, resulting in excellent content uniformity in applications such as premixes. A silicon dioxide-free version – Vitamin D3 500 SD/SF – is now also available. Both benefit from a reliable supply thanks to a state-of-the-art plant in Germany. As specialists in the formulation of fat-soluble vitamins, Divi’s offers a comprehensive and unique portfolio of vitamins D2 and D3 in different concentrations and forms suitable for a variety of liquid and dry applications, whether food supplements (tablets, effervescent tablets, capsules, softgels, powders, sachets), fortified foods (milk, cereals, bread) or beverages (fruit juices, clear drinks).
