    🎉 Exciting News from SOLUFORM®️! 🎉   We are thrilled to announce that SOLUFORM®️ was honored with the Ingredients Innovation Award at the World Confectionery Conference Awards 2024! 🏆 Our groundbreaking innovations in ingredient development have set new standards for quality and effectiveness in the industry. A huge thank you to our incredible team for your support and belief in our vision. This award is a testament to our collective efforts and drive for excellence. 💡 Innovative Solutions with SOLUFORM®️ 💡 At GELITA, we understand that manufacturing sugar-free and low-sugar candy is more than just reducing or replacing sugar. It impacts taste, texture, crystallization, and solubility—balancing these factors is crucial to maintaining the integrity of the final product. Our SOLUFORM®️ gelatin was specifically developed for sweets with low or no sugar content, accommodating various formulations without compromising on texture or bulking. This ensures that the quality of the product is identical to candy that contains more sugar, while offering significantly lower carbohydrate and calorie levels. Additionally, SOLUFORM®️ helps increase the protein content of gummies by up to 35% without affecting the end product’s quality. Our SOLUFORM®️ portfolio empowers manufacturers to enhance the nutritional profile of their confectionery products. Here’s to many more milestones ahead! 🥂🥂   #SOLUFORM®️ #WorldConfectioneryConference2024 #IngredientsInnovation #GELITA

    Our site in Gönen, Türkiye, has substantially improved its water management. 💧 This achievement was made possible by the introduction of a new wastewater treatment method, known as the Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) process. While most activated sludge processes require three purification steps, the SBR method streamlines the process by combining the second and third steps in a single chamber. 💪 Since 2023, the modernized facility has been ensuring reliable and efficient water management and contributing to a reduction in our ecological footprint. 🌱👣 ▶️ Autonomous treatment of all the wastewater ▶️ Facility capacity more than doubled ▶️ Reduction in chemical consumption by over two thirds Want to know more about our commitment to sustainable practices?
