Functional ingredients based on fluid bed technology make it so simple
Do you have poorly dissolving instant products that create dust and form lumps? Do the sensitive or volatile components of your functional ingredients lack stability in storage or have a disappointing release profile? Does your premix for vegan protein alternatives separate, resulting in an unsatisfactory texture?
We are your professionals for powders, particles and process. Glatt specialises in the development, manufacture and optimisation of powders, granules and pellets from both solid and liquid raw materials.
We bring added-value solutions to your challenges
Using fluidised bed technology and spouted bed technology, we can bring added value to your food ingredients with completely new functionalities. Our solutions are simple: hot air, a steel container and a few additional devices. But our experts’ know-how in using them is priceless.
Through spray drying, spray granulation, microencapsulation, particle coating or spray agglomeration with individually adapted process parameters and application-specific process control, we can work together to optimise product properties and create innovative ingredients for food and feed:
- Collagen and proteins that are difficult to dissolve, as well as instant foods, are given a compact but porous structure with improved solubility through combined spray granulation and spray agglomeration.
- Simple spray-dried products or liquids are turned into dust-free, free-flowing granules through spray agglomeration, which sink easily when dissolved and without clumping.
- Coating or microencapsulation can be used to protect and release volatile or sensitive ingredients such as flavours, vitamins, essential fatty acids and micronutrients in a controlled manner.
- Ingredients for premixes or food and feed compounds can be precisely conditioned in the fluidised and spouted bed for further processing, for example, for plant-based products and meat alternatives.
- We precisely adjust parameters such as bulk density, flowability and particle stability of ingredients in spray granulation to improve handling.
An eye for efficiency and cost-effectiveness
Glatt is by your side from initial concept to industrial production. Together, we develop your desired formulation and the appropriate process, from laboratory and pilot trials to scale-up. Glatt supports you with contract manufacturing, engineering and the construction of turnkey plants through to successful commissioning – all tailored to your individual needs.
Visit us from November 17 – 19, 2026, in Frankfurt/Main, Germany, at Fi Europe.
At booth 41 N48, the Glatt team will demonstrate how to precisely adjust the functional and technological properties of your ingredients for optimal results.
We are looking forward to meeting you and keen to hear about your latest product ideas, and development projects. We’re also excited to show you product samples and discuss your challenges, tasks and ultimate goals.
