ARMOR PHARMA
WORLD-CLASS INDUSTRIAL FACILITIES Armor, which has long produced edible lactose for agro-food manufacturers, and refined edible lactose for the formulation of infant formulas, has diversified into the production of pharmaceutical lactose employed as an excipient in the manufacture of drugs. The product range includes crushed and sieved lactose products and lactose products for direct compression.
Production is performed in a new dedicated facility.
The facility, inaugurated in 2014, meets all the applicable pharmaceutical standards (USP-NF, Ph. Eur. & JP) and applies Process Analytical Technology (PAT), as recommended by the US Food and Drug Administration s best practice guide, for the continuous control of critical manufacturing parameters.
How would you like your lactose? Attentive to its customers expectations, Armor Pharma strives continuously to provide the most appropriate product and packaging solutions. The flexibility of its manufacturing facility makes that possible.
ARMOR PROTÉINES
A SPECIALIST IN FUNCTIONAL AND NUTRITIONAL INGREDIENTS Armor Protéines offers food, dietetic and healthcare manufacturers a wide range of functional and nutritional ingredients.
Textured proteins provide low-fat recipes with greater unctuosity. Other ingredients preserve the softness of breads and pastries.
Nutritional proteins are used in dietetic and high protein formulations designed for infant, sporting or clinical nutrition or for use by senior citizens.
Mineral concentrates help increase calcium content, or reduce salt
content, in certain recipes without compromising their savor.
In the framework of the agreement reached with Terra Lacta the integration of two additional plants, Champdeniers and Surgères, has made it possible to extend our range of ingredients in particular to casein rennet and fat-filled powders.
Armor Protéines uses the expertise of its specialists in product formulation and process control to help its customers make the best use of the properties of its ingredients.
