From the idea to market with functional granules

With a short time-to-market from product and process development directly to contract manufacturing or your own production plant
Meet the Glatt team at Vitafoods Europe 2024 in Geneva at stand L 173

Benefit from bundled expertise in particle design – from the first feasibility test to scale-up, masterbatch and validation of the production process. Glatt offers suitable solutions for almost every requirement.

Do you have a product idea but don’t have the right technology? We support you in the manufacture and refinement of solid product formulations for a wide range of tasks: from nano-dispersed powder for high-tech applications, to matrix-encapsulated food supplements and food additives in powder, granulate and pellet form, through to products with defined release of active ingredients.

Contract manufacturing or plant design is always preceded by product and process development. The Glatt process experts precisely coordinate formulation and process. This shortens the development time and you can concentrate on your product. You can directly influence characteristics such as particle structure and size, bulk density, residual moisture, solubility, dispersibility and flowability. With improved dosing and storage stability, you can expand the range of applications for the subsequent processing of your optimized ingredients.

Your valuable ingredients can be perfectly protected from external influences such as moisture, temperature fluctuations or oxygen by means of film coating, lipid and hot melt coating. But the Glatt coating technology can do much more. Mask odor and taste. Give the granules a colored branding. Enable a targeted, controlled release of active ingredients. Gastro-resistant coatings of probiotics, for example, allow the active ingredients to be absorbed in the intestines of humans or ruminants.

With Glatt process technologies, you can optimize and functionalize your products of tomorrow today.
Does that sound exciting to you? Visit us at stand L173. Our team will be happy to advise you and answer your questions.

Would you like to know how your products can benefit from Glatt’s technological expertise? At our Technology Center in Weimar, you have the opportunity to carry out extensive feasibility tests. Of course, you will be supported by experienced process experts. Find the perfect match between your product idea and the required process conditions together.

Company information

Glatt Ingenieurtechnik GmbH
Glatt Ingenieurtechnik GmbH
Glatt is specialized in intelligent particle design for the generation and functionalization of powders and granulates with defined, adjustable properties. The focus is on particles and powders for pigments, catalytic, ceramic or battery materials as well as for granules and pellets as additives for e.g. industrial salts, detergents and cleaning agents, fertilizers, pesticides, food, feed, dietary supplements and pharmaceuticals. Encapsulation of flavors, enzymes, vitamins, microorganisms, probiotics or fatty acids (PUFA) is just as possible as encapsulation of essential oils and other active, sensitive substances to be protected. With Glatt APPtec®, a unique technology for spray calcination, it is possible to generate, coat and then calcine particles in a pulsing hot gas stream in a single process step. As a pioneer in fluid bed and spouted bed technologies, Glatt masters these important processes for the formulation and optimization of particle properties through defined spray agglomeration, spray granulation, spray coating or (micro)encapsulation as well as through combinations of these processes. Also in the high temperature range. Glatt supports the product idea from the early phase of product formulation through process development to scale-up to production scale. Under the leadership of the Glatt Process & Plant Engineering teams, customized production plants for nutrition, fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and biotech applications are successfully planned and commissioned. Worldwide. Whether based on powder synthesis, fluid bed or spouted bed technology, Glatt also offers certified contract manufacturing for customers without their own production capacities.

How to tame recalcitrant ingredients withtechnological processes
Plant-based functional ingredients behave differently than manufacturers of nutraceuticals and cosmetic products would like. Double microencapsulation can help them to overcome bioavailability and solubility challenges Plant-based functional ingredients behave differently than manufacturers of nutraceuticals and cosmetic products would like. Innovative processes such as double microencapsulation can help them to overcome bioavailability and solubility challenges. Among the currently trending functional ingredients, interest in natural sources such as turmeric and its polyphenol, curcumin, has been increasing for years. The spice is not only in demand in the culinary world, but has also found great promise in both consumer and scientific applications.1 Hewlings and Kalman reported that the reason for this is because of the medicinal properties of this rhizomatous perennial plant (Curcuma longa) from the ginger family, which have been known for thousands of years.2 In Asian countries, turmeric has traditionally been used as a medicinal plant for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimutagenic, antimicrobial and anticancer properties.3–5 This sought-after ingredient is not only

Spray (micro) encapsulation of sensitive substances in matrix form
An overview of essential oil and vitamin case studies Phytochemicals are increasingly found in many food, chemical and agricultural items. Product and process optimization is becoming ever-more important in all of these industries, with a focus on quality, manufacturing efficiency, stability and formulation costs. Essential oils are volatile substances with a relatively high vapor pressure; they are susceptible to oxidation and light and may change or may even lose their properties when directly exposed to stressors. Like other sensitive, volatile, odor- or taste-intensive liquid active ingredients, they must therefore be protected from the environment or vice versa. For this protection and to simplify handling — as well as for better dosage and targeted release — these substances are therefore progressively offered and used in encapsulated and/or free-flowing forms. Various processes can be used to deliver products with a compact structure. During process development, the most suitable procedures and equipment

Optimising functional ingredients for enhanced nutrition
Fluidised bed and spouted bed processes offer manufacturers almost unlimited possibilities in terms of optimised particle design and the functionalisation of ingredients, the properties of which can be fine-tuned Fluidised bed and spouted bed processes by Glatt offer manufacturers almost unlimited possibilities in terms of optimised particle design and the functionalisation of ingredients, the properties of which can be fine-tuned using spray granulation, agglomeration, microencapsulation and coating. The consumer demand for fortified products is constantly growing and has been well received by end users. The form in which health-promoting probiotics, dietary fibres or antioxidants are consumed depends on both the preferences and everyday habits of the individual: some prefer sports drinks, protein bars or enriched iced tea, whereas others favour more direct dosage forms, such as effervescent tablets, sachets or capsules. However, although the manufacturing processes associated with these products present numerous challenges, a universal requirement is that functional ingredients must be stable during storage, precisely dosed, dissolve quickly or have a depot effect.

Pre-engineering ensures planning reliability
Plant manufacturer and process expert Glatt uses pre-engineering to put investment decisions on a firm basis and enables its customers to bring forward sub-projects. ”Successful pre-engineering is the mental anticipation of all project contingencies - and it’s done before investment decisions are made.” No expensive surprises. Clifford Schäfersküpper, Glatt Ingenieurtechnik, uses practical examples to explain what is important in pre-engineering. To stay ahead in the race for successful new product launches, the concept phase is crucial. Plant manufacturer and process expert Glatt uses pre-engineering to put investment decisions on a firm basis and enables its customers to bring forward sub-projects. Preparing to make an investment decision can bring beads of sweat to the foreheads of R&D experts, product developers and founders alike. Often, they lack an overview of the project’s scope and details, and have to assess both risks regarding future operations and the profitability of possible alternatives.

New fluid bed options for solvent-based processes
Glatt has expanded its range of services and capacities at the company’s Technology Centre in Weimar for trials and sample development When developing and launching new products, speed is a critical factor. However, sensitive ingredients and solvent-based processes often present manufacturers with technological challenges. In process expert and plant manufacturer Glatt’s upgraded technology centre, support from initial idea and scale-up to industrial production is readily available. At the company’s Technology Centre in Weimar, Glatt operates a unique fluid bed system that processes solvent-based products in a vacuum or using nitrogen as the process gas. As such, demand is high for scale-up tests, product sample production or short-term contract manufacturing services until the client’s own production plant has been commissioned. However, a new fluid bed granulator and coater for innovative solvent-based processes has recently become available. The batch-mode apparatus is ideal for small and medium campaigns that include frequent cleaning cycles. Special explosion protection measures, a 12
