Product Description
Skimmed milk powder (SMP) is a dairy product manufactured by removing most of the fat from milk, concentrating the resulting skim milk, and drying it to produce a low moisture powder. Spray drying is commonly used in commercial production. SMP contains milk proteins, lactose, minerals, and other milk solids while having a relatively low fat content. It is widely used in bakery products, confectionery, dairy products, beverages, nutritional formulations, prepared foods, and other food processing applications. The product is valued for its extended shelf life, ease of handling, and ability to provide milk solids and functional properties to food formulations. When stored under suitable conditions, SMP can be kept for considerably longer periods than liquid milk. Its powdered form also reduces storage and transportation requirements compared with liquid milk, supporting its widespread use in domestic and international food supply chains.
