LBB Specialties (LBBS), a leading North American distributor of specialty chemicals and ingredients, has struck an exclusive distribution partnership with Palsgaard to bring its plant-based food emulsifier technologies to manufacturers across North America.

 

The partnership will strengthen access to specialized ingredient solutions, combining Palsgaard's century-long expertise in emulsifiers and stabilizers with LBBS's established distribution network, technical capabilities and customer-focused support.

 

The deal positions food manufacturers to tap into a broader range of high-performance emulsifier solutions designed to enhance product consistency, streamline processing and improve formulation performance across key food applications.

Backed by dedicated laboratories, application centres and pilot plants, the company develops technologies aimed at addressing manufacturers' evolving formulation and production challenges.

 

“Palsgaard's commitment to innovation and depth of technical knowledge make them a valuable addition to our Food & Nutrition portfolio,” said Toby Schmelz, Vice President, Food & Nutrition, LBB Specialties. 

 

“Their technologies give us more ways to help manufacturers improve product performance, simplify production, and explore new opportunities in product development. Just as importantly, their personal, collaborative approach aligns closely with how we work and the customer relationships we value."

 

For Palsgaard, the partnership offers an opportunity to extend the reach of its emulsifier technologies through LBBS's established industry relationships and distribution expertise.

 

“LBB Specialties brings the industry knowledge, established customer relationships, and responsive service we value in a distributor,” said Carlos Fajardo, Business Development Manager, Palsgaard.
