Variolac® whey permeate – the cost-effective choice for dairy innovation 

Looking for a smart way to make your milk go further and cut costs without compromising the creaminess of your dairy products? 

With Variolac® whey permeate from Arla Foods Ingredients, efficiency and taste are a dependable combo. Whether you’re aiming for a convenient flavoured drink, smooth yoghurt or affordable powder beverage, our versatile ingredient facilitates innovation across global markets. 

What makes Variolac® whey permeate ideal for so many dairy products? Variolac® whey permeate is made using a nanofiltration process that reduces mineral content, securing a clean taste and broad application potential.  

It’s not just an alternative source of milk solids. It can also reduce the need for sweeteners in low and no added sugar formulations. 

Check out the key benefits: 

  • A mild, milky taste – no mineral off-notes, even at high inclusion levels
  • High cost efficiency – up to 70% savings compared to skimmed milk powder
  • Good nutritional profile – naturally rich in calcium, magnesium and potassium
  • Easy processing – dissolves easily and flows smoothly in powder and liquid formats
  • Reliable supply – produced globally for stable availability
