Arla Foods: Production Start on Schedule at Lactose Plant

17 Oct 2014 --- Production start-up is moving according to plan at Arla Foods Ingredients’ new dry-blend lactose plant in Denmark, which is now running smoothly at 60% capacity.

Infant formula manufacturers are the primary target group. Meeting stringent requirements for safety and hygiene, the dry-blend lactose can be added after the other infant formula ingredients have been wet-blended and spray-dried.

This enables manufacturers to increase the capacity of existing production lines by up to 25% while maintaining quality standards.

The official inauguration of the EUR 120 million dry-blend lactose plant will take place on 13 November.
