Drive innovation in nutritious dairy drinks
The beverage category has never been more innovative. Once simple thirst-quenchers, drinks have evolved into lifestyle products for a wide range of consumer needs – from health and wellness to indulgence and convenience.
Dairy beverages are a great starting point for innovation. With the right solutions, producers can create drinks that deliver natural nutrition and exciting flavour combinations in attractive, on-the-go formats.
Appealing nutrition
Protein enrichment is a powerful trend in the beverage market. We help manufacturers develop high-protein dairy drinks that deliver a creamy taste, smooth mouthfeel and appealing viscosity – with no hint of graininess or off-flavours. During pasteurisation and UHT processing, stability is unrivalled.
We can also help you make clear protein beverages with a very low viscosity for a light and refreshing drinking experience. Beyond protein, we make it possible to enhance the nutritional profile of dairy drinks with natural milk vitamins and minerals – adding extra value for health-conscious consumers.
Fusing juice with dairy
Juice and dairy fusions are growing in popularity. From children’s drinks to smoothies and meal replacements, we work with manufacturers to ensure each delicious formulation has the ideal nutritional profile. The goal is healthy, on-the-go snacks that meet the needs of all ages.
