In addition to their widespread use in the cosmetics industry, Sorbitan Esters play a crucial role as emulsifiers in food production, enhancing stability, extending shelf life, and improving both taste and appearance. Indovinya, the specialty chemicals division of Indorama Ventures, announces the launch of Food-Grade Kosher&Halal Sorbitan®esters for the food industry.
The ALKEST SP 80 K® and ALKEST SP 60 K® product lines are designed for use in bread, confectionery, oils, dairy, and beverages, offering essential emulsifying and emollient properties that enhance product quality and performance.
“We see significant growth potential in the food market as we expand our Sorbitan Esters offering to this sector. These ingredients not only improve the texture and stability of food products but also complement our existing portfolio of food-grade polysorbates,” explains Fabiana Marra, Marketing and R&D Nutrition & Health Director at Indovinya.
Beyond meeting the highest standards of quality and safety, ALKEST SP 60 K® is also available in a Non-GMO version, addressing the growing demand for ingredients free from genetically modified organisms.
“We take pride in ensuring the highest standards of quality, safety, and compliance on our products. These certifications offer a strategic edge that drives sales, as supermarkets often prioritize brands with these seals. Having Kosher and Halal logos can significantly strengthen a food company’s market positioning,” adds Marra.
