ACI Group has expanded its portfolio of innovative ingredients with the addition of DÜBÖR Release Oils, a high-performance solution designed to improve bakery operations by reducing waste, enhancing safety, and increasing efficiency.
Traditional release agents often require excessive application, leading to costly waste, fire hazards, and hygiene concerns due to carbon buildup on baking surfaces. DÜBÖR’s advanced formulation enables bakeries to use up to 80% less product while ensuring a clean and consistent release of baked goods from tins, moulds, and trays. This breakthrough formulation significantly reduces operational costs while improving the quality of the final product.
The excessive use of conventional oils and emulsions leads to increased waste, greasy residue accumulation, and higher energy consumption due to more frequent machine cleaning and maintenance. By switching to DÜBÖR Release Oils, bakeries can eliminate the need for baking paper – if used, substantially reducing material waste and operational costs. The residue-free formula prevents the carbonisation of baking surfaces, helping to extend the lifespan of machinery, reduce fire risks, and cut the frequency of deep-cleaning cycles, making it a more sustainable and cost-effective choice for bakeries.
DÜBÖR’s formulation is also far more energy-efficient, with its lower water content relative to oil providing a cleaner, more effective solution that minimises excess buildup on tins and trays, ensuring better hygiene standards. This approach reduces the need for harsh cleaning chemicals, helping bakeries maintain high standards of cleanliness with a lower environmental impact.
Sustainability is a key driver in the bakery industry, and DÜBÖR Release Oils align with the growing demand for responsible sourcing and sustainable production. The release agents are vegan, allergen-free, and some contain plant-based wax, offering a more sustainable alternative to traditional release agents. By reducing ingredient usage, transport emissions, and overall waste, DÜBÖR supports bakeries in meeting their ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) targets, contributing to an improved environmental footprint while boosting overall operational efficiency.
“The beauty of working with ACI is that you can source high-performing ingredients like DÜBÖR alongside other essential bakery products,” said Jack Helm, Account Manager – Beverage, Bakery & Functional Foods at ACI Group. “DÜBÖR isn’t just about improving release performance – it’s about transforming the entire baking process. By significantly reducing oil consumption, bakeries can lower costs, minimise fire hazards, and reduce hygiene risks. The long-term operational benefits, from less machine maintenance to enhanced sustainability metrics, make DÜBÖR a valuable investment in the future of bakery production.”
Helm added: “Many bakeries don’t realise how much inefficiency stems from excessive release agent use. By switching to DÜBÖR, they can optimise production, reduce waste, and create a cleaner, safer working environment. This solution supports profitability and sustainability – two goals that should always go hand in hand.”
