As the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announces its preliminary determination that partially hydrogenated oils are not “generally recognized as safe” (GRAS), global oils leader IOI Loders Croklaan is inviting food manufacturers to its Creative Studio to reformulate applications with its existing suite of readily available trans-fat-free solutions.
“At IOI Loders Croklaan, we have long provided oil and shortening solutions that are free of partially hydrogenated oils, and we look forward to sharing our reformulation expertise with food brands to eliminate PHOs from their applications,” says Bill Troy, IOI Loders Croklaan chief operating officer. “Trans fat reduction and providing healthier alternatives has been our greatest area of focus.”
