Wanted: the highest quality and safety standards
High-growth and challenging areas of application such as baby food, confectionery and pharmaceuticals are our focus. Quality awareness is particularly high in these sensitive areas. That’s why high quality and safety guide our work.
Infant Nutrition
Only the best is good enough
The best food for babies is and always will be breast milk. Formula helps to replace this in the best
way when it is required.
Breast milk and cow’s milk have a few fundamental differences, however.
In order to create a product as close to breast milk as possible, it is essential to use whey
proteins and lactose.
The protein in breast milk comprises mainly whey protein (60% of total protein), whereas cow’s milk
comprises only 20% of this from whey protein.
The use of ALPAVIT Demin means that adapted baby food has a similar protein pattern to breast milk.
Cow’s milk is considerably saltier than breast milk. This salt content has to be significantly
lowered through the process of demineralisation.
With ALPAVIT Lactose, it’s possible to adjust the carbohydrate content of the baby formula to that of breast milk.
CONFECTIONERY
The finest quality for premium uses
When it comes to high-quality chocolate, it all depends on creating a consistently good taste. This requires top quality at a consistently high standard!
ALPAVIT Whole Milk Powder RD provides the best sensory properties for chocolate. The special drying process creates a product with a milky, caramel-like taste and very low hygroscopicity. Compared to conventional spray-dried products, its scale structure prevents the formation of an exceedingly large fine fraction during grinding in the chocolate production process. The high content of free fat ensures a better coating of the particles and thus facilitates the conveying and conching of the chocolate mass.
In addition to roller-dried milk and cream powder, we also offer other milk and whey products like ALPAVIT Lactose Edible, extrafine grade, for special purposes within this application area.
Sports Nutrition

Hypertrophy, rapid regeneration after sports activities or a fitness snack – whey proteins are demanded for a lot of different requirements. Because they are an ideal protein source and help replenish energy reserves.

It can be used to optimize the texture, flavour, and nutritional value of the protein application: whether loose and light or chewy with protein bars or creamy with protein shakes, our ALPAVIT WPC 80 gives the desired texture.
