UNRIVALLED TECHNOLOGY

CHOOZIT® LIFT is a unique culture that future-proofs your cheesemaking process. At IFF we know you’re constantly looking at ways to reduce costs, optimise production and reduce your dependence on natural resources, in particular water. Curd washing is a key step in the production of semi-hard cheese, requiring a substantial amount of water; the cost is high, financially and to the environment. CHOOZIT® LIFT takes curd washing out of the equation eliminating 100% of the water used for this step.

Proven Benefits

We have demonstrated tangible business benefits, alongside consistently high product quality, in collaboration with cheesemakers across Europe. A semi-hard cheese plant producing 10,000 tonnes of cheese each year will, on average, add 3,000L of water to each 10,000L VAT. CHOOZIT® LIFT reduces this to 0. That’s around a 25,000m³ water saving each year.

  • Reduce the water used for curd washing to zero
  • Simplify your process with an easy to use, pioneering technology
  • Benefit from associated cost savings
  • Achieve a tangible reduction in your environmental footprint
  • Delight your customers with the high product quality you’re known for
