Spray Chilling & Prilling Services

Precision particle engineering for food, chemical, and cosmetic applications

When your product depends on uniformity, stability, and performance, American Custom Drying (ACD) delivers. With decades of experience in particle transformation technologies — and newly expanded capabilities in spray chilling and prilling — we help R&D teams and manufacturers bring innovative, high-quality products to market faster.
Whether you’re looking to encapsulate sensitive ingredients, control release profiles, or produce free-flowing, dust-free powders, ACD offers the expertise and production capacity to meet your needs from pilot-scale runs to large commercial volumes.

What is Spray Chilling & Prilling?

Spray chilling (also known as prilling, spray congealing, or melt atomization) transforms molten materials into uniform, spherical particles by cooling atomized droplets into a solid form.

This process is ideal for:

  • Encapsulation of flavors, fragrances, oils, pigments, and other additives
  • Controlled release of active ingredients
  • Taste masking in food and nutraceutical products
  • Improving flow properties for easier handling and blending
  • Custom particle design for specialized applications

Commonly processed materials include waxes, fats, hydrogenated vegetable oils, polymers, phytosterols, and hydrated salts — making spray chilling an adaptable solution across multiple markets.

Benefits of Working with ACD

  • Uniform particle sizes from 10 to 1,000 microns
  • Free-flowing, dust-free powders
  • Cost-effective production with high efficiency
  • Custom-engineered particles tailored to your application
  • Ability to process blended materials for unique formulations
  • From R&D trials to high-volume production without compromising quality

Industries We Serve

  • Food & Nutraceuticals – Taste masking, flavor encapsulation, nutrient delivery
  • Cosmetics & Personal Care – Emollients, exfoliants, fragrance release systems
  • Chemical & Industrial – Lubricants, specialty additives, fragrance delivery

Our Commitment to Quality

  • Quality First – We prioritize quality over production output, ensuring every project meets the highest standards.
  • SQF 2000 Level 2 Certified – HACCP food safety plan under the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) at both our NJ and PA facilities.
  • ISO 9001 Compliant – Five years of surveillance and recertification audits with zero non-conformances.
  • HACCP Certified – Fully compliant with GMP standards, 9CFR417, and 21CFR110 regulations.
  • Onsite Analytical Lab – Advanced testing capabilities including protein/nitrogen analysis, particle size analysis, bulk density, ash, moisture, pH, viscosity, and more.
  • Proven Expertise – Decades of processing experience, now with expanded spray chilling and prilling capabilities.

Why Companies Outsource Spray Chilling to ACD

Many manufacturers have traditionally handled spray chilling in-house — but with rising costs, limited in-house capacity, and the need for consistent quality, outsourcing has become a smarter, faster path to market.

ACD brings specialized equipment, experienced technicians, and rigorous quality control to every batch, helping you scale without the burden of capital investment or added operational complexity.
