Bartek is a renown and largest vertically integrated global manufacturer of malic and food-grade fumaric acid that has been reliably serving the bakery industry for over 50 years. The company has been continually exploring the full potential of acidulant-based technologies to address the challenges that large and small-scale bakeries have been facing in meeting the modern consumer demand. During the ASB Marketplace in 2022, Bartek is pleased to present two of its recently developed acidulant-based technologies: Uphold Bread Preservation Technology and Upscale Artisan Bread Technology.

• Uphold Bread Preservation Technology offers cost-effective, easy-to-use, and drop-in ingredient systems that can work in conjunction with either natural or chemical preservatives to maintain and even improve mold-free shelf life and organoleptic properties of wide variety of bread products.   

• Upscale Artisan Bread Technology is a patent-pending, clean-label ingredient system that optimizes scaled-up and consistent artisan bread production, which has proven to be the most challenging to achieve. More specifically, Upscale increases porosity of cell structure and bread volume, enhances bread flavor and improves consistency and consumer appeal while extending the shelf life of the bread. For more information, please click here to visit our website.
