International symposium on microencapsulation - SternMaid issues an invitation to specialist lectures and a tour of the plant

06-Mar-2018 - Germany

Together with the Bioactives World Forum, the contract manufacturer SternMaid will be organizing an international Symposium on the subject of microencapsulation in Hamburg on 17 and 18 May 2018. Participants may expect a broad and diversified programme with specialist lectures on the technological and economic aspects of different encapsulation methods, interesting examples of applications, tasting of products, and a visit to the SternMaid facility in Wittenburg. Among others, the symposium is directed towards product developers, R&D experts, chemists, technologists and managers from the food and pharmaceutical industries, and manufacturers of food supplements.

Whether for creating bright colours in sweets and fruity flavours in chewing gum or for integrating valuable vitamins into tablets: microscopic capsules help to work sensitive ingredients into foods, food supplements and pharmaceutical products. The method offers a multitude of possibilities, but it also poses certain challenges for which the symposium will show approaches to a solution. The topics of the contributions include delayed release and stability of ingredients, enhancement of nutritional properties and the cost efficiency of the process. Among the speakers are well-known scientists and experts from industry from the USA, Switzerland and Germany. During a tour of the plant, SternMaid will also present its range of products and services and show how hydrocolloids, sugar, salts or minerals, for example, can be encapsulated and processed by means of fluidized bed technology or on the blending lines.

The event will be held at the InterCity-Hotel, Hamburg Dammtor-Messe. Since the number of places is limited, SternMaid would ask you to register early.
