WACKER provides unique ingredients for a wide range of food and supplement applications. We offer innovative solutions that respond to the food and nutrition industry's current challenges. CAVAMAX® cyclodextrins, e.g., enable egg-free bakery products without compromising texture or taste. Our product range also includes FERMOPURE®, our natural L-cystine and highly bioavailable versions of curcumin or coenzyme Q10, marketed as CAVACURMIN® and CAVAQ10®. The exploration for new products tailored to our customer’s regional needs is continuous.
Furthermore, Wacker offers molecular encapsulation solutions based on our cyclodextrin technology for odor or taste-masking, to stabilize food ingredients against heat and oxidation and to increase the bioavailability of functional ingredients. We have over 15 years of experience in manufacturing and formulating alpha-, beta- and gamma-cyclodextrins.
Additionally, Wacker produces a high-quality range of non-human, non-animal derived L-cysteine products. Wacker is the world’s only manufacturer of vegetarian-grade cysteine using a patented biotech process.
