Meeting complex production demands

Snack manufacturers face the challenge of achieving uniform expansion, stable dough handling, and consistent texture across diverse products and recipes. Traditional ingredients can lead to unpredictable results or process inefficiencies. KMC’s integrated potato-based solutions solve these issues by allowing fine-tuned viscosity, structure, and flavour balance.

ColdSwell starches support smooth processing and strong water binding, while flakes and granules deliver the desired body, crispness, and authentic potato character. Whether you need higher expansion for light crisps or lower expansion for denser bites, KMC formulations help maintain throughput and product uniformity – unlocking both operational reliability and sensory excellence in baked and fried snack production.
