Industrial Metal Powders (I) Pvt. Ltd, based in Pune, is the leading manufacturer and supplier of high-purity iron. It supplies iron powders in over 33 nations and has become undoubtedly the most trusted partner and supplier of high-quality iron powders used in various industries, including the food industry. In this blog, we will explore why IMP is the trusted partner for food fortification in the Global market.
Types of iron powder for food fortification manufactured by IMP
The most popular food fortification for a variety of food vehicles is iron powder. Iron fortification in food helps people of all ages avoid iron deficiency, which can lead to illnesses like anemia and others. However, iron powder is also one of the most challenging food-fortifying agents. This is because low-purity iron powders bring changes in color, odor, taste and texture in the food vehicle and elemental iron or iron compounds that are organoleptically acceptable may not get easily absorbed.
IMP offers ELECTRO-FINE which is a world-class brand of Electrolytic Iron Powder and Reduced Iron Powder and is most suitable for food fortification. ELECTRO-FINE is the most bioavailable, viable, and cost-effective iron powder available.
The food ingredients do not readily react with our ELECTRO-FINE food-grade iron powders to alter their colour, odour, taste, or texture. These high-purity iron powders are also protected from deterioration by our vacuum-packed packaging system.
