Palsgaard was the first company in the world specialising in the manufacture and development of emulsifiers for the food industry. Today, the company offers more than just ingredients....Its extensive application services are key to the success of many of its customers product development projects.
‘Quality control is a fine thing, but self-control is even better!’
so says Palsgaard, a global leader in emulsifier solutions for the
chocolate industry. To prove this, the company produces all of its
emulsifiers in state-of-the-art production facilities in strict
compliance with procedures implicit in the HACCP principles and the ISO
9001 system. The company’s philosophy also sees it continually

Ok, I am now ready to start writing about this truly wonderful country and its people and I would like to thank those Dutch companies that provided us with so much candid information about Dutch people and their culture. You can’t write about Holland without picking up the phone and talking to the Dutch. I was told straight away, ‘you will find Dutch people all over the world and if you do not find Dutch people in a country, then you will not be able to make a living there!’
The Dutch are robust, to the point, honest and have become known as some of the best negotiators in the world. I should know; I sold advertising to companies in Holland for over half of my life!

Deborah Cross, Industry Analyst, Food & Beverage Ingredients, from
Frost & Sullivan’s Chemicals, Materials & Foods group, comments on the
latest news about Kraft’s plans to acquire Cadbury…
Ever since the merger of Mars and Wrigley last year, we have been
expecting news about the next big deal and Cadbury’s name has been much
discussed as a potential for merging with another big name. The news of
Kraft’s offer yesterday, of £10.2 billion and of Cadbury’s rejection of
