At Vitafoods 2024, Lubrizol is set to introduce LIPOFER microcapsules, featuring advanced technologies for delivering iron with optimal performance. These technologies address issues like iron’s unpleasant taste, reactivity, interactions with other ingredients, and color changes. Additionally, they improve iron absorption with minimal gastric irritation while offering a pleasant taste to encourage consumers to meet their daily recommended iron intake.
In addition to LIPOFER microcapsules, Lubrizol will showcase Carbopol Polymers for nutraceuticals. With the new EU food-grade approval, nutraceutical manufacturers can now differentiate their product portfolios and make unique product claims. The multifunctional benefits of Carbopol Polymers offer consumer-centric solutions by enabling the production of smaller, easily digestible tablets. These polymers also provide stable, controlled-release or suspension of active ingredients, ensuring consistent delivery of nutraceutical benefits.
