Increase your profitability through improved
efficiency with FLO-MAXTM 2110 starch
FLO-MAXTM 2110 starch is our new powerful processing aid for spray dried
or extruded ingredients helping you reduce your manufacturing, maintenance
and production costs. FLO-MAXTM 2110 starch reduces waste and increases
output during the spray drying and extrusion process.
FLO-MAXTM 2110 starch
FLO-MAX TM 2110 starch is a new processing aid that helps to
improve yield during the spray drying or extrusion process of
ingredients for food and beverages. New from Ingredion, this
product offers cost savings through increased efficiency and
waste reduction.
Pictures shown below are between the tower and the
conical section with the temperature probe removed.
Low DE maltodextrin
Using maltodextrin, the products remain very sticky
and almost clogs the whole section. This leads to
product losses and poor product output.
FLO-MAX TM 2110 starch can be used to replace low DE
maltodextrins and other processing aids. The FLO-MAX TM
2110 starch can reduce costs and improve profitability.
Why choose FLO-MAXTM 2110 starch?
•
FLO-MAX TM 2110 is a modified starch that is used to reduce
production time and waste through improved flowability of
product in the spray drier or extruder.
•
FLO-MAX™ 2110 starch is a white powder which is neutral
and works in broad pH-conditions at a high total acid
content.
•
With its low viscosity FLO-MAX TM 2110 starch enables more
concentrated formulations to achieve premium products.
•
Adding FLO-MAX TM 2110 starch to the slurry can improve
the yield of hygroscopic juices, plant and herbal extracts by
up to 100%.
•
Using FLO-MAX™ 2110 starch results in the tower being
significantly cleaner (see images on the right).
•
Adding FLO-MAX™ 2110 starch results in the temperature
probe being less clogged, easy to remove and the
remaining powder can be cleaned easily.
•
FLO-MAX TM 2110 starch is recommended to be used in
sticky hygroscopic materials and prevents them from
clogging the spray dryer, resulting in less stops for cleaning.
FLO-MAXTM 2110 starch
FLO-MAX TM 2110 starch strongly improves the flow of
the product and drying process, so that the probe can
easily be removed for cleaning after drying.
