A nutritional base powder is the foundation infant and young child formula can be built on. Our versatile Essential® base powders and Vana®-Sana nutritional oil powders provide most of the essential ingredients required to develop a final formula for infants and young children while offering convenience and flexibility for manufacturers.
A base powder consists of an oil blend, which usually accounts for around half the content, plus milk proteins, carbohydrates, minerals and vitamins. It only takes a simple dry-blending process to enhance base powder with added ingredients of your choice to produce a solution for your infant and young child formula.
We offer a range of Essential® base powders derived from fresh milk from our member dairy farmers, as well as nutritional oil powders in our Vana®-Sana range, each targeted to meet the preferences of parents, infants and young children while ensuring a simple formulation process for brands.
Our infant-formula grade base powders contain vegetable oil blends designed to meet your specific needs for balancing alpha-linolenic acid with linoleic acid content (ALA:LA ratio), or for using a specific type of vegetable oil.
Plus, we ensure mineral and vitamin levels are precisely balanced for the desired nutritional profile.
The matrices used in our base powders are designed to fit the final application, effortlessly: they contain nutritious milk proteins, as well as lactose as a carbohydrate source.
All the milk-derived ingredients in our base powders are manufactured from bovine milk sourced within our own cooperative, ensuring a short, tightly controlled and transparent supply chain.
Flexibility comes first with the right base powder: they offer a convenient, versatile and efficient solution for kick-starting any early life nutrition product.
