Controlled release food additives

ICL Innovation seeks to add controlled release functionality for its reactive food additives. Release should be based on either time delay, physical or chemical triggering (pH, temperature, concentration, pressure, etc.)

ICL's business unit "Food Specialties" produces and sells phosphate specialties, chopping or brine additives, emulsifying salts and leavening acids, and a big variety of complex blends of various ingredients to the food processing industry. Our expertise is to create synergistic effects for our customers. Our products provide indispensable functions to the processing industry. They act as emulsion and color stabilizers, maturing agents, texture and taste improvers, freshness retainer, etc.  Main industries served include: meat, poultry, seafood, dairy, bakery, noodle and beverages. 

 Our criteria

• Cost- the competitive food additives market cannot accept high increases in cost. 
• Functionality- clear improvement should be evident in comparison with existing solutions. 
• Compliance with food grade regulatory requirements
