Quality & Specifications
Our freeze-dried fruits represent premium quality, food safety, and transparency. To ensure our wholesale clients receive the best possible ingredients, we follow strict quality standards and clear processes.
100% Natural Fruits – No Additives
All our products consist exclusively of pure fruit. We deliberately avoid added sugars, colorings, preservatives, or flavorings. This guarantees 100% natural taste, vibrant colors, and typical nutrient profiles – optimized for clean label products in an increasingly conscious market.
Organic Quality & Sustainable Cultivation
A large part of our range is also available in certified organic quality. Our DE-ÖKO-certified freeze-dried fruits come from selected growing regions where sustainable agriculture, regional value creation, and fair working conditions are a priority. This ensures compliance with the high standards of organic certification seals.
Food Safety Through IFS Standard
Our production processes are certified according to the International Featured Standard (IFS Food). This standard guarantees the highest product safety, traceability, and hygiene – from raw material to packaging. Our customers in the food industry can rely on raw materials that meet the strict requirements for industrial use.
QS Inspection System for Quality Assurance
In addition to international standards, QS certification is another cornerstone of our quality assurance. It ensures that our fruits are monitored throughout the entire supply chain – from cultivation to processing and distribution – through regular inspections and documentation. The QS seal stands for reliability and transparency within the German food industry.
Responsibility & Ethics – Sedex Membership
We are a member of the Sedex Network (Supplier Ethical Data Exchange) and actively promote sustainable and responsible supply chains. Topics such as social responsibility, fair working conditions, environmental protection, and integrity are integral parts of our corporate philosophy. This means we not only offer high-quality products but also an ethically sound sourcing foundation.
Shelf Life, Packaging & Product Specifications
Lyophilized fruits are naturally exceptionally long-lasting – typically 12 to 24 months, depending on the variety. Thanks to gentle freeze-drying, vitamins, nutrients, aroma, and color are almost completely preserved. We offer individual packaging solutions: from industrial bulk bags to custom private label packaging. This way, we meet the needs of both bulk buyers and branded food manufacturers.
