PrimeCAP® ENCAPSULATED INGREDIENTSIFP has a patented encapsulation technology that allows us to coat particles to help stabilize your formulations, provide flavor enhancements, and protect less stable ingredients.
IFP's patented encapsulation technology produces a high performance coating system comprising multiple coat layers over the core particle's surface. Our encapsulates are tailored for use in your specific product.
Functionally encapsulated ingredients are used to:• Control food ingredient interaction within it’s environment.• Shelf-life extension through controlled release of active ingredients• reduce moisture pick-up by hygroscopic ingredients• taste and flavor masking and extended release

INSTANTIZED GUMS & STARCHESOur instantized gums and starches are dust free, free flowing and easily dispersible. Because there is no need for pre-blending, hydration or special equipment, these outstanding ingredients have the potential to increase profit margins by reducing labor, production time and cost.
IFP's Inst*Thick® gums and Insta*Starch® ingredients offer consistently dust-free and fully functional ingredients for a wide range of applications.
As a lower cost alternative to using individual instantized gums, our Vis*Quick® blends are specially formulated to maximize functionality and minimize cost.
NON-PHO INGREDIENTSRemove hydrogenated vegetable oils from your encapsulated ingredients without affecting taste, texture or shelf-life.
IFP has launched a series of Non-PHO encapsulated ingredients that:• Retain ingredient survival/ release properties • Are cost-favorable • Are label friendly
IFP’s non-PHO replacement coating systems have been tested in the most stressful conditions (frozen meat grinding) delivering equal survival properties, little to no cost impact and label friendly for consumer acceptance and appeal.
