ACI Group, a leading supplier of specialist food ingredients, is delighted to introduce a new range of innovative bakery ingredients that are set to transform operations, reduce waste, and promote sustainability within the bakery industry.
With rising ingredient costs, increasing regulatory pressures, and growing consumer demand for more sustainable products, ACI’s latest solutions are designed to help bakeries optimise their operations while maintaining profitability. These new ingredients combine precision, efficiency, and sustainability, enabling bakeries to remain competitive in a rapidly evolving market.
In the fast-paced world of bakery production, recipe creators are constantly striving for the perfect balance of flavour, texture, and appearance. However, inefficiencies such as poor air quality, ineffective release agents, and unnecessary ingredient waste can quietly undermine productivity, safety, and profitability. ACI Group’s latest innovations directly address these challenges, offering a smarter, more sustainable approach to modern baking.
ACI has launched three transformative solutions: TIP-TOP® Low-Dust Dusting Flour, DÜBÖR Release Agents, and GECKO® Ultra Seed Adhesive, all designed to tackle common bakery challenges, improve workplace safety, and deliver tangible cost savings.
TIP-TOP® Low-Dust Dusting Flour helps to reduce airborne flour dust, a major cause of occupational asthma, by up to 70%. This improvement in air quality enhances worker safety, reduces cleaning time, and helps prevent mould growth on contact surfaces, thereby boosting hygiene and operational efficiency. Additionally, the flour functions as a release flour, preventing dough from sticking and saving time and costs during production.
DÜBÖR Release Agents optimise the clean release of baked goods while reducing fire risks and hygiene concerns linked to excessive oil use. With up to 80% less product required, DÜBÖR reduces carbon build-up on baking surfaces, prolonging cleaning intervals and improving productivity. Its allergen-free, plant-based wax formula offers a more sustainable, cost-effective solution that meets the growing demand for clean-label ingredients.
GECKO® Ultra Seed Adhesive improves seed adhesion and reduces waste by up to 30%. This ensures that seeds remain securely attached throughout the baking process, enhancing product appearance and creating a safer, cleaner environment. Its clean-label, ambient-stable formula is easy to store and apply, offering a simple yet highly effective solution for minimising seed waste and improving operational efficiency.
“Our new ingredient series is all about empowering bakeries to strike the perfect balance between efficiency, cost savings, and sustainability,” said Jack Helm, Account Manager – Beverage, Bakery & Functional Foods at ACI Group. “By integrating these advanced solutions, bakeries can reduce waste, enhance workplace safety, and streamline operations. A major advantage of working with ACI is that bakeries can source these innovative ingredients alongside other essential bakery products, ensuring a seamless and efficient supply chain.”
The launch of ACI’s new ingredient range underscores the company’s ongoing commitment to innovation in the bakery sector. As the industry shifts towards more sustainable and efficient production practices, bakeries that embrace these solutions will be best positioned for long-term success.
