Meet the Glatt Experts @ ProPack India - Booth P1

Sophisticated product design with Glatt fluid bed and spouted bed technologies

Added-value ingredients and active substances require gentle processes. Glatt’s laboratory plant enables the small-scale production and testing of innovative product ideas.

At Pro Pak India 2019, co-located with Fi India & Hi India at the Bombay Convention and Exhibition Centre in Mumbai, Glatt will showcase its fluid bed and spouted bed technologies for almost unlimited drying and particle design applications (booth P1). The plant engineering and process development specialist from Germany, Glatt Ingenieurtechnik, and its Indian affiliate, Glatt India Engineering Pvt Ltd, offer a wide range of sustainable, hygienic and economical production services — from initial product ideas to turnkey facilities.
Working with ingredients or products that require specific properties can be demanding — whether it’s a technological production challenge, a protective role or a sensory or nutritional function. What’s more, increasing environmental awareness is also challenging Indian producers to rethink the packaging of their products. Improving the bulk density of powders and stabilizing them by granulation, encapsulation or coating decreases their overall volume and makes them more resistant to external influences. In turn, this means that less packaging is required and more sustainable materials can be used. Hence, when it comes to enhancing ingredients and functionalising bulk goods with defined properties, Glatt’s cutting-edge technologies make it possible to precisely adjust certain parameters — from particle structure, composition, surface texture, bulk density, solubility, compactibility or the dosability of food, feed and fine chemicals to high-performance materials for a wide range of applications.
Lutz Heinzl, German Sales Manager, commented: “We are a sought-after technology partner for project-specific processes and products that we develop together with our clients. This expertise is also valuable during the research stage, which is why our customers benefit from the know-how we gain throughout the entire development process.”
The extremely flexible multipurpose laboratory system for research and development projects is also part of Glatt’s exhibition programme. Anuvrat Singal, Executive Director at Glatt India Engineering Pvt, explains: “Fluid and spouted bed systems facilitate the agglomeration of a wide range of powders, the drying of liquid ingredients into granulates or pellets, to enclose sensitive substances in microcapsules and, if required, the ability to functionalise them with a spray coating. With the GFB Lab machine, we will present a system that’s been adapted to meet the needs of Indian suppliers and that has been manufactured using state-of-the-art German engineering in Pune.”

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.

PHOS4green @ Powtech 2019 Halle 3, Stand 3-249
Waste-free conversion of phosphorus-containing sewage sludge ashes into high-quality stand At Powtech 2019 in Nuremberg, the plant manufacturing and process development specialist, Glatt, is presenting a groundbreaking waste-free process that recycles the phosphorus from ash to produce ready-to-use high-quality fertilisers. Glatt Ingenieurtechnik will be presenting a market-ready process at Powtech that fulfils the legal obligation of German waste disposal companies to recover phosphorus. In the first step of the two-stage "PHOS4green" process, a suspension is produced from the phosphate-containing ash, a mineral acid and, depending on the objective, other components. The suspension is then spray granulated in the fluidised bed. This results in fertiliser granulates that are available to plants and soil, which can be discharged, filled and delivered directly after the desired grain size has been reached. "Fluidised bed granulation has been a mature process for decades, enabling a simple and safe introduction to fertiliser ordinance-compliant phosphate

GF ModFlex: Fluid bed system in new modular compact design
Enhancing continuous spray agglomeration processes - set up in just 12 days At Health ingredients Europe 2018 in Frankfurt, Germany, plant manufacturer Glatt Ingenieurtechnik will be presenting a newly developed modular and compact plant concept for continuous spray agglomeration. Featuring multi-step and multi-zone processing, the GF ModFlex is compact, flexible and features a new control system developed by Glatt. As more and more people adopt better-for-you diets, the demand for enriched and sugar-free foods, on-the-go drinks and dietary supplements is rising. But protein shake consumers will only become repeat purchasers if the powder dissolves quickly and without lumps; similarly, eaters of vegan ice cream won’t appreciate the presence of ice crystals in their tasty treat. Spray agglomeration during fluid bed processing ensures that proteins and sweeteners such as maltitol or cellulose derivatives can be properly wetted, have a more porous surface and are more flowable and easier to dose. Their bulk density is also significantly reduced,
