THE Indonesian National Drug and Food Control Agency, Badan Pengawas Obat dan Makanan (BPOM) has recently approved five enzymes which are part of the DuPont™ Danisco® range of ingredients for bakery solutions. With this new regulatory approval, DuPont can now offer an extensive range of enzymes to the Indonesian bakery and flour milling industry.

The newly approved five enzymes include:

1.      POWERMill™ - helps improve flour milling efficiency and extraction rate.

2.      GRINDAMYL® SUREBake - improves bread volume and enhances texture and colour of noodles.

3.      POWERFresh® Special range – based on G+ and G4 patented enzymes to help with better moisture and softness retention in baked goods throughout the shelf life.

4.      POWERBake® 9000 and 9500 - two range of solutions that combine the effects of xylanase and cellulose to increase water absorption and yield for bread flour.

“This is a significant milestone for DuPont and we are proud to be the first company in Indonesia to receive regulatory approval for our G+ and G4 anti-staling amylases” comments Lee Lai See, regional business director, Food Enzymes, ASPAC.

“For the past three years, we have worked very closely with the relevant authorities to ensure that our products meet the strict standards and comprehensive reviews set by the BPOM in Indonesia. We are pleased that these five enzymes have passed the review process and are now available in the Indonesian market.” adds Chen Qiang, regulatory affairs manager, ASEAN.

Vikki Paterson, sales director, ASEAN says, “Our DuPont™ Danisco® range of enzymes have shown to improve yield, enhance process efficiency, and deliver fresh-keeping qualities. Industrial bakers and flour millers in Indonesia can now include this range of enzymes in their formulation to meet the growing market demand for producing quality baked goods with better cost-in-use.”

“With this new approval, we can help our customers better differentiate their products in the marketplace. However, our work in bringing ideas and solutions for our customers doesn’t stop here. We will continue to focus on research and development, collaborate with our customers to push the boundaries of innovation in the bakery space” she adds.
