2015-11 EU Specialty Food Ingredients welcomes 3 new members!

Two companies (Hunstman Pigments and Additives and BK Giulini GmbH) and one trade association (Marinalg International) have decided to join EU Specialty Food Ingredients as from 1st January 2016. Maryse Hervé, EU Specialty Food Ingredients Secretary General, commented: “We are delighted that these companies and association are joining us to to help strengthen the voice of the European specialty food ingredients sector, and I trust that they will find in EU Specialty Food Ingredients  a unique forum of dedicated experts in our Committees and Working Groups, and the right place to defend their interests”.

In 2009, EU Specialty Food Ingredients decided to open up its membership directly to companies in order to strengthen its voice and visibility in Brussels and more confidently tackle the increasing challenges of the EU food legislative environment. The Federation is now well established as a separate and complementary voice of the European food and drink industry and of the industry of primary food processors. The high rate of R&D investments makes the specialty food ingredients sector a privileged stakeholder of the EU institutions at a time when innovation has never been so high on the EU political agenda due to its direct impact on industry competitiveness.
