Whey Protein Concentrate 550

Whey Protein Concentrate 550 (WPC 550) is a specialised whey protein designed for high protein fortification with excellent heat stability and viscosity control. WPC 550 is a microparticulated whey protein that pushes the boundaries of whey protein by performing well in a range of high protein applications with exceptional stability. It is a spray dried milk protein manufactured from fresh cheese whey using an ultra-filtration process.

Unlock high protein content without compromising on taste or texture

NZMP™ WPC 550 is a superior whey protein designed for high protein milks and UHT beverages with superior heat stability and viscosity control.

• Excellent UHT heat stability.

• Easily recombined at 50 to 60°C.

• Supports shelf-stable high protein beverages.

• Low viscosity for improved mouth feel.

Enriched milk beverages

NZMP WPC 550 can be combined with other ingredients to boost the whey protein content less than 10% total protein. Boosts essential and branched-chain  amino acids (BCAA), supporting muscle building, recovery and health. Our patented process allows for superior stability and viscosity in a RTD beverage.

High whey protein beverages

NZMP WPC 550 is a superior whey protein, unlike regular whey, this does not gel at high concentrations (<10%) and temperatures, setting the benchmark for whey texture and stability. It can also be formulated with other ingredients to achieve even higher protein levels, and it enables 100% whey RTD beverages.

Overcoming the heat stability issues of whey protein

Exceptionally smooth protein yoghurts with a clean flavour

A functional whey protein concentrate that enables extra high protein enhancement with low viscosity and exceptional smoothness and clean flavor in yoghurt systems.

Drinking Yogurt:

• Up to 15% protein with low sedimentation

• Smooth and pourable texture

Spoonable Yogurt:

• Up to 16% protein in spoonable yoghurt (when used in combination with mpc)

Set:

• Up to 15% protein

Ambient:

• Its heat stability enables high protein ambient stable yoghurts.

A highly specialised nutritional ingredient comprised of heat-treated whey protein which delivers high protein with low batter viscosity and does not gel when heated. This provides spread and softness to cookies and low viscosity for batters such as for muffins and pancakes, which cannot be achieved using traditional whey protein ingredients. Optimal results are achieved when formulated in a protein blend in baking applications.

• Low Viscosity for higher protein batter

• Improved mouthfeel

• Heat stable & non-gelling

• Enables soft muffins and pancakes
