As global demand for high-quality dairy foods continues to rise, producers are under greater pressure than ever to deliver consistency, compliance, and operational efficiency. From milk drinks to yoghurts, cheeses, ice creams, and whey-based ingredients, accurate measurement of key parameters is central to product stability, customer confidence, and regulatory assurance.
Anton Paar Ireland is responding to this need with a suite of advanced measurement technologies designed to streamline quality control and elevate production reliability across the dairy value chain. The company’s instruments, trusted by food manufacturers worldwide, help processors make faster, more informed decisions from raw milk intake through to final product release.
The company also offers a range of free to download application reports to help producers optimise their quality control workflows.
Viscosity control- securing texture and processing stability
Texture defines product identity in the dairy world. Reliable viscosity measurement helps you maintain mouthfeel, detect process deviations early, and optimise filling and pumping steps. The ViscoQC viscometer ensures repeatable, operator-independent results.
