Herbstreith & Fox GmbH
(H&F) is Hawkins Watts Australia’s pectin supplier.
The business was started in 1934 by Hermann Herbstreith, and
moved
to the
current
head office site in Neuenbürg, on the edge of the Black
Forest, in 1938.
The company initially focused on apple pectin,
but following the reunification of Germany in 1990, purchased a
second production facility located in Brandenburg, close to Berlin.
The Brandenburg facility manufactures mostly citrus pectin.
Hawkins Watts
has worked with H&F since 1994 and has always received superb
technical support. In 2004, Hawkins Watts Australia was appointed
as the distributor for Herbstreith & Fox in the Australian
market.
Herbstreith & Fox only
manufactures pectin and pectin derivatives. The company’s
expertise in all things pectin is very comprehensive and they have
information on pectin applications
such as the standard jams and spreads, confectionery
products, bakery fillings and glazes, acidified
milk drinks and pharmaceutical applications.
Herbstreith & Fox’s subsidiary,
Herbafood Ingredients GmbH, also produces a range of specialty
fibres and sweeteners,
including ingredients such as Herbasweet and Herbacel
Citrus Fibre. |
