Press Release

Glanbia Nutritionals, a global leader in nutritional solutions and value-added protein systems for the food, beverage and supplement industries, is pleased to announce the launch of ProTherma™ hydrolyzed whey protein for the hot ready-to-mix powdered beverage and food markets.

ProTherma™ is an agglomerated hydrolyzed whey protein designed to withstand high temperatures giving it the ability to stay soluble and stable when added to hot water. It functions better than conventional whey proteins, dissolving completely with no coagulation. Consisting of 85% high density low lactose protein, ProTherma™ is a convenient way to achieve protein fortification in hot ready-to-mix powdered applications that include coffees, teas, hot chocolates, malt drinks, soups, oatmeals, coffee pods and coffee creamers. ProTherma™ is GRAS, Kosher and Halal approved.

“With the growing demand for hot beverages and the continued interest from consumers for protein enriched products, the addition of ProTherma™ to our portfolio will provide an exciting new alternative for our customers and their consumers. We have made it easier to formulate heat stable and protein rich ready-to-mix powdered applications,” said Ram Nimmagudda, Ph.D., Senior Director Performance and Wellness Bioactives for Glanbia Nutritionals.

This significant advancement in hot ready-to-mix applications was recognized at Drinktec held in Munich, Germany. Our Muscle Mocha product concept powered by ProTherma™ was chosen out of hundreds of entries as a finalist for the World Beverage Innovation Awards. ProTherma  will also be a highlighted product at the Glanbia Nutritionals booth at this year’s SupplySide West in Las Vegas.
