Encapsol Fat Coated Sea Salt

Product overview

ENCAPSOL® Fat Coated Sea Salt is an innovative encapsulated sodium chloride ingredient manufactured using advanced lipid-coating technology that surrounds natural sea salt crystals with a protective food-grade fat matrix.

Performance Advantages

Traditional salt dissolves immediately upon contact with moisture, often leading to:
• Uneven flavour distribution
• Premature osmotic effects in food systems
• Moisture migration in processed foods
• Reduced stability in sensitive formulations
• Sodium losses during processing
ENCAPSOL® Fat Coated Sea Salt provides controlled salt release, improving flavour efficiency and processing performance.
Benefits of Encapsulation
• Enhanced flavour impact with lower salt usage
• Controlled sodium release profile
• Improved moisture stability
• Reduced hygroscopicity and caking
• Better shelf-life performance
• Improved ingredient compatibility
• Enhanced process control

Key Functionalities & Benefits

• Delayed dissolution of salt crystals

• Targeted flavour delivery during consumption

• Stronger perceived saltiness at lower sodium levels

• Improved flavour retention throughout shelf life

• Reduced moisture uptake

• Improved texture preservation

• Improved flowability and handling

• Reduced caking tendency
