    April 2017
    --- As Palsgaard celebrates 100 years since its founder, Einar Schou, invented the modern commercial emulsifier, the Danish-based ingredients manufacturer is increasingly looking beyond its base of food for growth. Palsgaard set highly ambitious 5 year growth targets in 2016, aimed at doubling current turnover of DKK1 billion (€135 million) by 2021. Palsgaard A/S owes its highly successful portfolio of vegetable-based emulsifiers and stabilizers to sister company Nexus A/S, which comprises a range of laboratories.

    emulsifiers and emulsifier systems


    Emulsifier specialist Palsgaard helps the global food industry make the most of the ability to mix oil and water.

    Thanks to the company’s specialised emulsifiers (and emulsifier/stabiliser systems), bakery, confectionery, condiments, dairy, ice cream, margarine and meat producers can improve the quality and extend the shelf-life of their products. Just as importantly, they can produce better-for-you products with improved taste, mouthfeel and texture while using less resources.

    Since its founder Einar Viggo Schou invented the modern plant-based food emulsifier in 1917, Palsgaard has offered the industry know-how and innovation. From its six application centres around the world Palsgaard’ s experienced food technologists help manufacturers optimise existing recipes and develop delicious products with better nutritional profiles. 

    Palsgaard helps manufacturers meet consumer and regulatory demands for greater responsibility, helping them grow and protect their brands. It is currently the world’s only commercial source of fully sustainable, emulsifiers based on RSPO SG-certified palm oil and produced by CO2-neutral factories in Denmark, the Netherlands, Mexico, Brazil, China and Malaysia. The company’s products are non-GMO and meet halal and kosher requirements.

    In addition to its food emulsifiers, Palsgaard supplies the polymers industry with a series of plant-based, food-grade polymer additives, which are particularly suited for preventing fogging and dust on plastic packaging.
