Nutrient Microencapsulation
Improving stability of active ingredients in a range of fortified food and drink applications to maximise impact and reduce overage.
Superior stability and delivery
Xampla’s nutrient microencapsulation technology is an exciting innovation enabling the fortification of food and beverages. Our unrivalled platform technology supports FMCG manufacturers and brands protect vitamins, nutrients, probiotics and other active ingredients with our vegan and gluten free solution, made from plants. Xampla™ microcapsules have a unique enteric release profile improving bioavailability of the nutrient by releasing in the upper gut for optimum impact.
Why do nutrients degrade?
How can I prevent nutrients from degrading?
What active ingredients do the microcapsules work with?
Typically in fortified food and drinks, essential nutrients can degrade over time with the impact of UV light, low pH, and high temperatures. In order to compensate for these losses, many choose to add much larger amounts of these nutrients to ensure they are at the right levels when they reach the consumer.
Xampla’s microencapsulation technology improves the stability of nutrients in different food and beverage products. It has proven compatibility with pasteurisation, high-pressure processing, and homogenisation as well as low pH, providing the best protection even in challenging products.
For active ingredients, our microcapsules have proven success across a range of oil-based nutrients including vitamins and botanicals, as well as probiotics. Our multi-patented technology can also protect against oxidation and disguise undesirable flavours.
