Casein Replacement

Soy polymers can be used as a direct substitution for casein in various industrial applications. For users looking for immediate relief from casein price, quality and supply issues, Pro-Cote soy polymers can replace casein in most applications at levels ranging from partial to full replacement:

Soy polymers provide:
  • cost savings
  • stable pricing
  • reliable product availability
  • consistent quality

    Soy Polymers can replace 25-50% of casein in a formulation while maintaining the same performance demands. Due to differences in chemical and product nature, certain formulation adjustments are necessary. Most customers develop the adjustments themselves; however, we can provide assistance within the framework of a joint project.
