Galactic is a world expert in lactic acid and lactates-based natural ingredients.
Guaranteeing adequate shelf life for food and beverage products can be particularly challenging for manufacturers who are seeking natural solutions. Products must be safe to consume and keep their organoleptic properties. Preservation thus requires a combination of two types of ingredients, which must be synchronised to have the same duration of efficacy in order to optimise cost.
Combining their respective areas of expertise in natural food safety and natural antioxidant solutions, Galactic and Naturex will develop standardised and all-in-one shelf life solutions tailored to each type of application.
“This partnership aims at creating a palette of preservation systems that will help manufacturers to simplify product development,” said Jean-Christophe Bogaert, director – sales, marketing & business development at Galactic.
The R&D team will mainly focus on applications where food safety and organoleptic properties play an important role. The first results of this long-term collaboration will be unveiled in 2014.
