Whey Permeate Powder (WP-70)

Description

1. Product Overview

Whey Permeate Powder (WP-70) is a dairy-derived functional powder produced from whey permeate, offering a consistent source of lactose and milk-derived minerals for industrial food and feed applications. It is primarily used in bakery, confectionery, dairy, beverage, animal nutrition, and formulated food products where controlled dairy solids and cost-efficient lactose functionality are required. Its reliable composition, easy handling, and strong formulation versatility make it an attractive alternative to higher-cost dairy ingredients. As a scalable dairy co-product, WP-70 also supports efficient utilization of the milk supply chain and provides manufacturers with a commercially competitive ingredient solution.
