Corbion Caravan announced it has introduced a new non-PHO GMS hydrated emulsifier for no-time dough applications with a solution that eliminates partially hydrogenated oils.
"Corbion Caravan set the standard for hydrated monoglycerides over 50 years ago," said Jim Robertson, global product manager, emulsifiers, for Corbion Caravan. "Now, we've built on our deep technological understanding and processing knowledge to develop a drop-in replacement that produces even better results."
Robertson said 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, according to a company press release. In addition, while GMS 520 is a 1:1 solution, GMS 540 allows customers to reduce usage, creating potential to reduce costs in purchasing and packaging.
"Customers can reduce their usage rate up to 20 percent with GMS 540, and still obtain improvements in dough handling, volume, softness, crumb grain and more," Robertson said.
Corbion Caravan is working toward eliminating all PHO products in its portfolio by early 2017, before the June 2018 deadline mandated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
