Denis Carrigan, head of R&D for Glanbia Consumer Foods in Ireland, talks to Shaun Weston about the range of milk products the company is working on, such as lactose-free, UHT and high-protein.
In UHT, the latest technology “gives you very, very good taste,” said Carrigan. “The steam infusion, or indirect heating – rapid heating, rapid cooling – is always moving ahead, and because we’ve just built our plant, and because we’ve gone to experts worldwide, we’ve specified the best possible plant that gives the best possible taste for our UHT milk or our UHT lactose-free milk, or indeed whipping cream, regular cream and single cream.
“Ireland has the best milk quality. We have the best milk plant, and now we’re going to march forth into Europe and beyond with the best possible milk quality.”
