IFF has over 90 years of experience producing industry-leading food-grade emulsifiers for a variety of applications.
With IFF emulsifiers like DIMODAN® and PANODAN® DATEM, manufacturers can secure stable processes, achieve better texture and higher volume, keep products softer for longer, enhance quality and shelf life, and unlock potential cost savings through optimized production.
Imagine delicious breads, biscuits, cakes, and bars with appealing textures, even when calories are reduced. By reducing formulation complexity and tolerance to raw material quality variation, production efficiency can be heightened.
Discover a consistent quality over shelf-life with an unrivaled sensorial experience using emulsifiers in a high-dense and nutrient-rich beverage.
IFF emulsifiers help nutritional beverages maintain their stability and performance, even under challenging conditions like high protein content, added vitamins and minerals, or fat‑containing formulations.
By improving emulsion stability, they prevent ingredient separation, support uniform appearance, and protect the sensory profile throughout shelf life. This helps to delivers the intended smoothness, creaminess, and flavor experience.
Elevate your confectionary through premium texture. Improve chewing gum, softness and machinability or control viscosity and flow properties of chocolate or caramel treats. Do this all while maintaining product characteristics throughout the shelf life.
With IFF emulsifiers like GRINDSTED® ACETEM, GRINDSTED® PGPR 90 and PGPR Super, you can achieve a smooth texture and seamless processing, elevating your product to new heights.
Unlock the overall quality of your margarines, sauces, dressings, and ready-to-eat meals. Increase machinability and process efficiency with stable emulsions. Even allow fat reduction and reduced spattering in margarines, fillings and spreads.
With IFF emulsifiers like DIMODAN® and GRINDSTED® CRYSTALLIZER, emulsion stability can be elevated, saturated fat reduced and trans fat removed without compromising taste and texture.
In the world of dairy products, emulsifiers play a vital role in delivering quality across creams and creamers, as well as frozen desserts.
For creams and creamers, solutions like GRINDSTED® LACTEM and GRINDSTED® ACETEM help stabilize aerated structures.
In frozen desserts, GRINDSTED® MONO-DI and CREMODAN® stabilize emulsions and aerated structures, ensuring products maintain their integrity and provide the perfect mouthfeel.
Keep aerated and stable structures in your coffee creamers, creams, and frozen desserts light and fluffy for longer.
IFF Pet Conditioners’ emulsifier range is a special ingredient designed for dog and cat foods. Achieve maximized extrusion capacity for enhanced texture and palatability in dry and semi-moist pet food, reducing breakage, dustiness, and waste during production.
