First Choice Ingredients adds spray drying pilot plant
The plant will reduce research and development time for clean-label dairy concentrates.
First Choice Ingredients (FCI), Germantown, Wis., announced the addition and certification of a new spray drying pilot plant. The company said the plant will allow customers to have smaller quantities of clean‐label dairy concentrates in days rather than months.
“From a few pounds of organic butter to a few hundred pounds of sharp cheddar, we now have a solution to help speed up our customers’ scale‐ups,” said Roger Mullins, senior vice president, FCI. “Everything today is faster, faster, faster. Now we can deliver our clean-label cheese and dairy powders quicker than ever. We’re finding that entrepreneurial‐minded companies really appreciate the responsiveness.”
