A USEFUL FIRST STEP
Start with a brief.
Build the evidence.
Free samples are available for qualified commercial trials after an application review. Sample selection, quantity, delivery and the trial method are agreed before dispatch.
Plan the next step ↗- Describe your application.
Starch source, solids, cooking profile, pH, temperature, target sugar composition and throughput.
- Agree the trial conditions.
Include the material, scale, pH, temperature, contact time and any existing process chemicals.
- Define a useful result.
Choose the comparison, controls and measurements that will guide your next decision.
BEFORE YOU START
The details
that matter.
Can I use raw starch directly?
Substrate accessibility and the selected enzyme determine the route. Describe pretreatment and cooking conditions before choosing a product.
Does liquefaction establish the final syrup composition?
No. Define and measure the carbohydrate profile required after the full treatment sequence.
Can I order standard enzyme packs?
Current α-amylase and glucoamylase ingredients are linked below. Bulk and tailored options are quoted after review.
Do you offer bulk supply and tailored blends?
Send your application, required quantity, specifications and delivery destination. We will review a suitable supply or development route and provide a quotation.
