OUR BUSINESS
Palsgaard is the world’s only full-service emulsifier and stabiliser company. It offers sustainably produced, customer-tailored solutions for the global food industry, as well as non-food markets such as polymers and personal care.
Emulsifiers and stabilisers allow otherwise incompatible ingredients to be combined, creating exciting new capabilities and functionality. This enables manufacturers of bakery, confectionery, condiments, dairy, ice cream, margarine and plant-based products to improve their quality, taste, mouthfeel, texture and shelf-life, and to create better-for-you foods with leaner labels, less fat and better nutritional value, while using fewer resources.
Since our founder Einar Viggo Schou invented the modern plant-based food emulsifier in 1917, Palsgaard has offered expertise and innovation. From our six application centres around the world, our experienced food technologists help manufacturers optimize existing recipes and develop delicious products with superior nutritional profiles.
Palsgaard enables manufacturers to meet consumer and regulatory demands for greater responsibility, helping them grow and protect their brands. We're the world’s only commercial source of fully sustainable emulsifiers based on RSPO SG-certified palm oil and produced by CO2-neutral factories (scope 1 and 2) in Denmark, the Netherlands, Mexico, Brazil, China and Malaysia. All products are non-GMO and meet halal and kosher requirements.
Palsgaard's emulsifiers are dual-use and also serve as plant-based polymer additives, which are rapidly emerging as highly effective, sustainable alternatives to conventional oil-based additives. They offer anti-static performance which prevent dust-attraction helping to make food packaging more appealing as well as anti-fog performance helping to control water condensation and extend shelf-life and reduce food waste.
Palsgaard is owned by the Schou Foundation and has 690+ employees across 18 countries. Its turnover in 2022 was 343 million USD (2.4 billion DKK), with products sold to more than 120 countries. Over 400 million people consume foods containing Palsgaard products every day.
