According to Stephen Santos, Mantrose-Haeuser’s Vice President of Research & Development, “There is growing awareness among consumers of the environmental impact of standard palm oil cultivation and Mantrose-Haeuser is dedicated to providing high performance coating systems that provide our customers, the confectionery products manufacturers, with the option of using ‘palm oil free’ labeling.”
Included in the new portfolio of coating products are palm oil free Certicoat antisticking polishes that deliver the ideal combination of gloss and lubrication for gummy and liquorice products and palm oil free Crystalac glazing agents.
Certicoat 85, Certicoat 95 and Certicoat 40 are palm oil free anti-stick glazing agents for starch, pectin and gelatin gums and for molded liquorice. These new Certicoat coatings are designed with natural waxes and provide excellent gloss, high stability, resistance to moisture and lubricity to control piece to piece sticking.
