Industry solutions Convenience
Scalable quality for global brands. Standardized raw materials, maximum delivery reliability and audit security for the convenience industry.
When recipes are produced by the millions, there is no room for variation. Global manufacturers of soups, sauces and ready meals need raw material partners who think and act on an industrial scale. The Kündig Group understands the complex requirements of large corporations – from strict adherence to specifications to complete traceability and global sustainability standards.
With over 30 international quality and sustainability certificates (including FSSC 22000, organic, SMETA), we not only offer you first-class dried vegetables, mushrooms and herbs, but one thing above all: absolute safety. We guarantee maximum delivery reliability and standardized raw materials that can be seamlessly and smoothly integrated into your highly automated processes.
The 3 pillars for the industry
We speak the language of your quality assurance. With over 30 certificates, our processes and plants are always prepared for the strictest supplier audits in the food industry. Our own accredited laboratory and validated sterilization processes (Biosteril®) preventively safeguard your supply chain.
Production downtimes cost money. Thanks to our global sourcing network, strategic warehousing at central European hubs and intelligent risk management, we guarantee you reliable On-Time In-Full (OTIF) performance – even in volatile markets.
Transparency from origin to loading ramp. We maintain decades-long partnerships with our growers and invest in sustainable agricultural projects. In this way, we actively support you in achieving your corporate social responsibility (CSR) and Scope 3 emission targets.
Possible uses / applications
Precise rehydration and constant bulk density – Whether instant soup or wet canned food: our vegetable cubes, mushroom granules and herb powders are precisely adjusted to your desired rehydration behavior. They guarantee a constant bulk density in the filling line and an immediately present, authentic taste profile after pouring.
Homogeneity and viscosity – perfect the texture of your liquid applications. Our fine vegetable and legume powders serve as natural, declaration-friendly binding agents (clean label). Our germ-reduced, color-stable herbs, which also behave segregation-free in emulsions and acidic matrices, provide visual highlights.
Structural stability under thermal stress – We supply raw materials that can withstand extreme production conditions. Our specially selected dried vegetables and IQF ingredients retain their cell structure, bite and color – even after demanding pasteurization or autoclaving processes in ready-to-eat production.
