Food
Reliable spray drying solutions for food ingredients and additives.
In the food industry, spray drying is a key technology for turning liquid ingredients into shelf-stable, functional powders. Think of flavors, starches, proteins and nutritional supplements all requiring consistent particle size, solubility and hygiene. At Raca International, we help food manufacturers achieve reliable, efficient and compliant spray drying processes. With decades of experience and in-house expertise, we support your team in selecting and configuring the right nozzles and systems for every food application. From concept to continuous production.
Trends & developments
- Rising demand for clean-label and plant-based ingredients
- Focus on allergen control and traceability
- Growing importance of powder solubility and flowability
- Pressure on production costs and energy efficiency
We follow these trends closely and help our clients translate them into practical nozzle and process choices that support innovation and compliance.
Applications
Spray drying is used across the food sector to produce:
- Flavorings, colorants and seasonings
- Nutritional ingredients (vitamins, minerals, amino acids)
- Modified starches and emulsifiers
- Plant-based proteins (e.g. pea, soy, rice)
- Fiber powders and fat replacers
Each of these applications requires specific atomization characteristics and nozzle configurations. Our specialists help you balance yield, hygiene, powder quality and energy use.
