About Blattmann Schweiz AG

Blattmann Schweiz AG was founded in 1856 on Lake Zurich and supplies the food industry with organic and conventional specialty ingredients. The main product groups include spelt and wheat proteins (including vital wheat gluten), liquid and powdered sweeteners such as crystal-clear organic glucose syrups, and starches and derivatives such as dextrins based on potato, corn and tapioca. The range is complemented by plant-based pea protein concentrates and functional dietary fibres such as potato fibre (AGENAFIBER, available in Switzerland and Liechtenstein). The ingredients are used in baked goods, meat products and meat substitutes, breakfast cereals, confectionery, ice cream, beverages as well as soups and sauces. A focus lies on clean-label solutions such as BECODUR® SPELT for 100% spelt products or QUEMINA® as an alternative to methylcellulose. The company operates its own production site on Lake Zurich and regularly exhibits at trade fairs including Biofach in Nuremberg.
