Why Do I Need Low-Micro Flour?
Reduce Risk
Flour is made from wheat which is a raw agricultural product that may contain harmful pathogens
Brand Protection
Recalls related to flour may be less common, but that doesn’t mean they are any less damaging
Affordability
Many treated flours are too expensive for companies to adopt — low-micro is affordable
What type of product should use Low-Micro Flour?
Any food product that may not fully go through a kill-step before being ingested should use Low-Micro Flour. Unless your cook a product fully, the moment it leaves your production facility you are relying on others to control your risk. Low-Micro Flour helps reduce that worry. Any product that is take & bake, ready-to-bake, or ready-to-cook should use Low-Micro Flour.
