MINERAL RAW MATERIALS FOR THE FOOD INDUSTRY

Raw materials from MAGNESIA for food production

MAGNESIA — your reli­able and expe­ri­enced part­ner for high-qual­i­ty min­er­al raw mate­ri­als for the food indus­try. Inter­na­tion­al man­u­fac­tur­ers of baked goods, dairy prod­ucts, bev­er­ages and meat rely on our prod­ucts. In addi­tion to com­pounds based on mag­ne­sium and cal­ci­um, our range also includes com­pounds of sodi­um, potas­si­um and zinc as well as dis­solved solids. Our raw mate­ri­als meet the high­est food safe­ty stan­dards, includ­ing the require­ments of the Euro­pean Food Safe­ty Author­i­ty and, where required, the Amer­i­can Food Chem­i­cals Codex.

Our prod­uct port­fo­lio for the food indus­try gives you an overview of our min­er­al raw materials.

Mineral raw materials for a wide range of applications in food

Min­er­al raw mate­ri­als and com­pounds have become indis­pens­able in food pro­duc­tion and offer a wide range of appli­ca­tions. At MAGNESIA, you can obtain the right raw mate­r­i­al com­po­nent for almost any food pro­duc­tion, tak­ing into account the phys­i­cal prop­er­ties — even if it has to be kosher or halāl.

FAQ — Frequently asked questions

There is no one-size-fits-all answer here. It is impor­tant to clar­i­fy how much mag­ne­sium is required, as well as the desired require­ments in terms of sol­u­bil­i­ty, col­or, taste and bulk den­si­ty. This allows us to find the right qual­i­ty for each indi­vid­ual requirement.

Min­er­als are essen­tial nutri­ents for the human organ­ism that can­not be pro­duced by the body itself. It is there­fore impor­tant to con­sume them through a bal­anced diet. They play an impor­tant role in the struc­ture and func­tion of bones, mus­cles, teeth and nerves, for example

Bioavail­abil­i­ty refers to how well or quick­ly a min­er­al is absorbed and processed by the human body.

In gen­er­al, the shelf life of our prod­ucts can­not be gen­er­al­ized. On aver­age, how­ev­er, we speak of 2–5 years with prop­er storage.
