Lactose

Lactose is a sugar contained in milk, which is offered by B2B wholesalers, suppliers and producers as a crystalline, colorless substance with a sweet taste. In addition to North America and Europe (second largest market share), the Asia-Pacific region dominates the market for lactose.

In food technology and product development, lactose is used as a filler and binder in the manufacture of baked goods, confectionery and infant nutrition, but also serves as a starting product for the production of lactic acid and, as an additive, brings about changes in texture so that, for example, a creamy consistency is achieved in frozen spinach.

The customers of B2B suppliers and producers of lactose include not only the food industry, but also companies in the animal feed industry, pharmaceutical and medical industries for the production of medicines.
