Infant Nutrition
Trusted expertise, purpose built for the most sensitive applications.Tatua manufactures a range of specialised dairy proteins and bioactive ingredients that are used in infant nutrition and early life nutrition applications, including whey and casein protein systems, protein hydrolysates, and high‑purity specialty proteins such as lactoferrin.
These ingredients are produced using advanced separation and drying technologies designed to retain functionality and consistency, which are critical in infant nutrition formulations.
Through enzymatic hydrolysis of dairy proteins and separation techniques, Tatua offers a range of partially hydrolysed proteins designed to relieve infant gastrointestinal discomfort and extensively hydrolysed hypoallergenic hydrolysates for management of Cow’s Milk Protein Allergy (CMPA).
Tatua’s milk is sourced from a small, tightly controlled group of New Zealand dairy farms located close to manufacturing, enabling strong oversight of raw material quality and traceability.
This proximity supports consistent ingredient performance and underpins Tatua’s reputation as a reliable supplier for high‑risk, high‑compliance nutrition markets.
