What is toll spray drying, and when does it make sense?

Toll drying lets food manufacturers turn liquid flavours and ingredients into stable powders without building their own drying line.

Spray drying turns a liquid, such as a flavour emulsion or an ingredient solution, into a fine powder. The liquid is atomised into a stream of hot air, the water evaporates in seconds, and a dry, free-flowing powder is collected.

Why outsource it?

A drying line is a large investment that needs space, energy and a trained team. Toll drying gives you access to that capacity when you need it. You supply the product and the specification; we dry, blend and pack it.

  • No capital spent on equipment you use part of the year
  • Faster trials and scale-up for new products
  • Your own team stays focused on formulation and sales
