Velcorin microbial control agent approved in Canada
Velcorin microbial control agent has been approved for use in water-based non-alcoholic beverages and wine in Canada. The Velcorin product is registered for use as a microbial control agent to control spoilage organisms in beverages in all major markets of the world including the United States, European Union, as well as China, and just recently in India. Velcorin microbial control agent offers unique benefits over alternatives such as hot filling, as it can significantly reduce PET and energy consumption through cold filling.
"With the addition of Canada to our regulatory portfolio, LANXESS is able to offer uninterrupted service to North American customers throughout the entire market and thereby closes an important registration gap for Canadian as well as U.S. based beverage corporations," said Michael Turpin, Head of LANXESS’ Business Line Beverage Technology North America. "We already have successfully run trials at Canadian customers and can now move towards commercialization of the first beverages with our advanced microbial control technology."
