BENEO Announces New Translucent Coating for Chewing Gum at ISM 2016
Innovative Technology Gives Manufacturers New Opportunities for Shine and Visual Effects
(firmenpresse) - COLOGNE, GERMANY -- (Marketwired) -- 02/01/16 -- BENEO, one of the world''s leading manufacturers in functional ingredients, will showcase its new ISOMALT translucent gum coating technology for the first time at ISM 2016 from January 31 - February 3 in Cologne, Germany. This innovative coating process enables chewing gum manufacturers to create attractive products that deliver translucence and shine, while also maintaining stability throughout product shelf life.
The new coating has been made possible by incorporating BENEO''s ISOMALT, the only sugar replacer that crystallizes translucently. This unique characteristic makes it the coating of choice for producers looking to create shiny pellets with innovative visual effects. For the first time ever, the new technology allows multi-colored gum centers to be coated in a crunchy and translucent way. Extraordinary colors, as well as added print and sparkle effects are also now possible and will remain visible throughout product shelf life.
BENEO''s unique ISOMALT translucent coating technology now offers new ways to create appealing gum products on existing production equipment. Gum coated with ISOMALT has a fine, delicate crunch, excellent flavor release and is not prone to chipping or cracking during production or transport.
"The chewing gum market is in need of fresh ideas to re-ignite sales and BENEO''s translucent coating technology now offers fantastic scope for new product innovation. For the first time multi-colored centers can be made visible, leading to new visual possibilities in the market that will create excitement for the consumer and manufacturer alike," said Thomas Schmidt, Marketing Director at BENEO.
Being the only sugar replacer derived from beet sugar, BENEO''s ISOMALT has a sugar-like, mild sweet taste. It has received EFSA (European Food Safety Authority) health claims for both its low glycemic and tooth friendly characteristics. Also, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a dental health claim. Both are opening up further marketing opportunities for confectionery producers.
Technical samples will be available on BENEO''s stand (Hall 10.2 booth G77) at ISM, alongside market samples from the first manufacturers who have adopted this innovative technology.
