Corbion Caravan Introduces Non-PHO GMS Hydrated Emulsifiers
20 Nov 2015 --- New solutions from Corbion Caravan’s Ensemble line provide drop-in ease, enhanced softness and volume for dough applications that eliminate partially hydrogenated oils (PHOs).
Robertson says functionality tests with no-time dough applications demonstrate that the new GMS 520 and GMS 540 non-PHO hydrated emulsifiers improve volume and softness, while maintaining or improving crumb grain and other attributes. In addition, while GMS 520 is a 1:1 solution, GMS 540 allows customers to reduce usage, creating an immediate potential to reduce costs in everything from purchasing to packaging.
“Customers can reduce their usage rate up to 20% with GMS 540, and still obtain improvements in dough handling, volume, softness, crumb grain and more,” says Robertson.
As the industry leader, Corbion Caravan is working toward eliminating all PHO products in its portfolio by early 2017, long before the June 2018 deadline mandated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
