Whey permeate is an economical alternative to milk powder and whey. Its high lactose content makes it an interesting bulking agent, especially in food applications such as confectionery, chocolate, bakery, pastry, dairy products, beverages or even animal feed…
Whey permeate is obtained by ultrafiltration, removing whey’s proteins. With a protein content of over 4.5% and an average lactose content of 80%, our permeate powders optimize overall costs by replacing whey or lactose.
LACTALIS Ingredients, through its US-based plants, offers high fluidity permeate powder from mozzarella whey under the Lactowell® brand, as well as permeate powder enriched with dairy compounds under the Sensadairy® brand.
