From discovery to commercialization
We are ambitious about dairy-derived ingredients that promote nutrition.
Fortunately, such raw materials are naturally rich in proteins, lipids, oligosaccharides, minerals and vitamins – with enormous potential for application in a wide variety of food categories.
