Flour improvers
FLOUR IMPROVER

Flour Improver

Consistent quality. Every batch. Every time.

Flour is a natural product milled from wheat grains. Like all natural products, its quality varies depending on growing conditions, harvest time, storage and wheat variety. But bakers and millers cannot afford inconsistency. Your customers expect the same bread quality every single day.

Flour milling

Nature varies.
We don't.

Wheat quality changes with every harvest. Rain, drought, soil conditions — all affect protein content and baking performance. Our flour improvers are scientifically formulated to:

  • Compensate low gluten or protein content
  • Correct harvest-damaged wheat
  • Optimize wheat blends for consistent performance
Bromate substitutes

Bromate Substitutes

Potassium bromate has been used for decades to strengthen dough and improve oven spring. However, health concerns have led to its ban in many countries. Our bromate-free alternatives deliver the same benefits — safely.

Ascorbic acid bread

Ascorbic Acid

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is one of the most widely used flour improvers worldwide. It acts as an oxidizing agent that strengthens the gluten network, resulting in better gas retention and higher loaf volume.

What it does: Strengthens gluten · Increases oven spring · Improves crumb uniformity · Creates finer cell structure · Works in both short and long fermentation processes

Dough conditioners and softeners

Dough Softeners & Conditioners

Dough that is too stiff or too elastic creates problems in high-speed production lines. Our dough conditioners improve machinability, while softeners ensure a tender eating experience.

Our range includes: Lecithin (natural emulsifier) · Malt flour (enzyme active) · Diacetyl tartaric acid esters (DATEM) · Sodium stearoyl lactylate (SSL) · Calcium stearoyl lactylate (CSL) · Monoglycerides and diglycerides

Baking premixes and fortified flour

Baking Premixes & Flour Fortification

Many countries mandate flour fortification to combat vitamin and mineral deficiencies. We partner with the Flour Fortification Initiative (FFI) and provide complete premix solutions.

Fortification premixes contain: Vitamin A · Vitamin B1, B2, B6, B12 · Niacin · Folic acid · Iron (ferrous fumarate) · Zinc · And more

The Science Behind Our Improvers

As sole agents for Stern-Wywiol Gruppe (Germany), we bring world-class enzyme technology to Uganda's milling industry.

Amylases

Break down starch into sugars for yeast fermentation, improving volume, crust color and shelf life.

Hemicellulases / Xylanases

Modify non-starch polysaccharides for better dough handling, increased volume and softer crumb.

Oxidases

Strengthen gluten network naturally, replacing chemical oxidizers like bromate.

Proteases

Modify gluten proteins for better extensibility in weak flours or specific products like biscuits.

Bakery

Better flour. Better bread.

Over 25 years of serving Uganda's milling and bakery industry. Let us help you achieve perfect consistency.
