Custom solutions for powder blends and future-proof packaging
At Vitafoods Europe in Barcelona, SternMaid will highlight its services for customised powder and granulate blends. Together with its sister companies SternVitamin and SternLife, the contract manufacturer will showcase its extensive service portfolio – from blending to refining and packing – at booth 3G122. A new state-of-theart filling line for environmentally friendly cans made of more than 95 % cardboard has further expanded the company’ s capabilities.
From lifestyle products to diet drinks and sports nutrition, the new packaging line enables SternMaid to fill powders or granulates into almost fully recyclable cardboard cans with cardboard bottoms. This not only ensures compliance with legal requirements but also provides customers with future-proof packaging solutions that combine sustainability with functionality. The cutting-edge facility handles various can formats, with filling volumes ranging from 100g to 1000g.

As a full-service partner, SternMaid offers tailored solutions with a high level of quality awareness and state-of-the-art technology for blending and refining powdered foods and dietary supplements. Its multifunctional fluidised bed processor, for example, enables additional refinement steps such as agglomeration, spray granulation, coating and microencapsulation for
precisely defined product characteristics – from improved solubility to optimal tabletting properties. This gives the company the necessary flexibility to meet a wide range of customer requirements.
Thanks to close collaboration within the Stern-Wywiol Group, SternMaid customers also benefit from extensive research and development expertise. At booth 3G122, Vitafoods visitors can learn more about formulation and product development at SternLife, and get application-specific advice from SternVitamin’ s micronutrient experts.
