Learn about the benefits of CoreShell encapsulation

TasteTech specializes in flavorings and encapsulation technology. The company is always ahead of market trends, supplying encapsulated ingredients and flavors to over 40 countries across 5 continents. With the best solutions and most effective results, TasteTech has developed CoreShell encapsulation, which forms a barrier between two or more incompatible substances—ideal for protecting an active ingredient from liquids and moisture.

The CoreShell Encapsulation

CoreShell encapsulation can limit aroma degradation or loss during various production and storage processes, thus offering flavor experiences that stimulate the senses and create moments of connection. It is important to protect active ingredients (such as acids, preservatives, sugar, and salt) from moisture, and CoreShell offers a tailored solution to this challenge by providing superior protection that forms a barrier between two or more incompatible substances.

What’s more: these encapsulations are easy to dose, cost-effective, transform liquids and other ingredients into dust-free powders that are easy to process, keeping the active ingredients dry and crystalline, ensuring greater performance and standardization in your operation.

What are the benefits?

For a sharper, high-quality flavor, CoreShell encapsulation helps solve issues like hygroscopicity, inversion, and energy loss in a variety of products, and includes several benefits:

• High-quality granular particles between 500 – 1,800 microns (depending on the product)
• Superior protection against moisture, keeping active ingredients dry and crystalline
• Maintains quality throughout the product’s shelf life by reducing the hygroscopic nature of the core active ingredients
• Reduces the reaction rate between incompatible ingredients, allowing control over when the product reacts

Therefore, CoreShell encapsulation can increase the longevity of ingredients and flavorings or help mask flavors. It also allows you to control the release of the active ingredient through heat—such as during baking—or by shear/chewing, and achieve freeze/thaw stability for sensitive ingredients.
