Get the Support You Need to Develop a New Food Product
Nowadays, new food products need to be tasty, nutritious, sustainable, and good value for money as well as get to the market quickly. To succeed, step one is to have a trusted supplier with a large portfolio of qualitative products, a team of experts, and decades of experience in food manufacturing processes.

New food products need to meet consumers’ high demands for quality, taste, and nutrition, as well as following new food trends such as better texture, lower sugar, and natural ingredients, to name a few. What’s more, these new products also need to be cost-effective, sustainable and have a fast time to market.
Faced with these challenges, food and beverage companies need a trusted partner who can support them. Thanks to our wide range of robust technologies and long experience particularly within fermentation processes, Sartorius can help you address your specific challenges in food development and food production. Here’s how:
Crops
Climate change means that producers need to find new solutions, developing new varieties of crops that require less water and fewer energy resources, as well as being resistant against disease. Encouraging a smooth development process and helping deliver reliable results, Sartorius offers sterile single-use bags to test the growth of these new crops.
Algae
New products based on algae present two types of challenge. Firstly, when producing for human consumption, in the extraction and clarification of thickening agents, textures and flavors. Here, Sartorius supplies filters and filtration skids as well as single-use bags for the storage and shipping of the final product. Secondly, for the extraction and purification of active principles for probiotics such as spirulina, we supply a full range of downstream technologies from crossflow, filtration, and chromatography solutions to single-use bags for storage and shipping.
Dairy Products
Classical animal-based dairy has been around for a long time, so producers face a challenge to take new dairy products to the next level. On top of this, climate change has resulted in fewer breeding animals and there is pressure to think about new, more sustainable sources of dairy products. Sartorius can help optimize development thanks to DoE, Ambr® 250 Modular and Biostat® B fermenters, with a choice of Hydrosart®cassette and hollow fiber crossflow solutions to purify the molecules of interest.
During production, we provide Aquasart® and Sartopure® IND for the sterile filtration of water and Aerosart® venting filters to protect tanks.
Eggs
Eggs form the basic elements of many food products and need to be handled in a safe manner.
For the sterile shipping of egg-based products, whole eggs or eggs separated into egg whites and yolks, Sartorius provides Sartovent® and Aerosart® air filters, whereas our cassette and hollow fiber crossflow solutions can be used to separate the molecules of interest.
Beer
In the brewing industry, especially to support the boom in craft beers where new and distinct flavors and colors are in high demand, optimal fermentation is needed to develop new yeast lines with specific and defined organoleptic properties. As well as helping preparation of various propagation yeast tanks to be shipped to larger brewing groups looking to standardize their beers and production, and the clarification and sterile filtration of beer.
For yeast fermentation, we can offer DoE, Ambr® 250 Modular and the Biostat® B family of fermenters as well as Palletank® and single-use bags for shipping. For filtration, we provide dedicated filter cartridges thanks to the Sartocool®, Aquasart® and Sartopure® IND families, with Aerosart® recommended for the venting filters.
Spirits and Alcoholic Drinks
The race is always on to develop and produce new flavors and new drinks. Facilitating product development, we offer DoE as well as Ambr® 250 Modular and the Biostat® B fermenters. During industrial production, we provide Aquasart®, Sartopure® IND and Aerosart® to optimally handle water and gas filtration and filtration before bottling.
Soft Drinks and Fruit Juices
New products are often characterized by their aromas, textures, and cost-effectiveness to produce. During development, Sartorius can help with the implementation of the DoE for these attributes, as well as providing Sartopure® IND and Aquasart® for the sterile filtration of water. When production is up and running, Aerosart® venting filters help protect the tanks.
