Celebrating 125 years of succes ingredients

Zeelandia proudly celebrates 125 years of supporting bakers around the world. What began as a small Dutch family business has grown into a global partner for the bakery industry — helping bakeries thrive with smart ingredients, deep process knowledge, and true collaboration.

From our very first innovation — a simple jelly to improve shelf life — to trusted solutions like CARLO®, our iconic release agent, we’ve always focused on making bakers' work easier and more effective. Over the decades, we’ve introduced bread improvers that help keep bread fresher for longer, and tailor-made pastry solutions that combine indulgence with efficiency.

But ingredients alone don’t create success. We believe it’s our understanding of the entire baking process that makes the difference. Whether we’re working with small artisan bakers or large industrial producers, we help optimise production lines, solve technical challenges, and co-create products that meet exact market demands — from taste and texture to shelf life and sustainability.

Our partnerships are built for the long term. We work side by side with bakers, offering expertise that adapts to their scale, goals, and local needs. Whether it’s simplifying a recipe or solving a high-speed processing issue, our goal is always the same: to help bakers grow, succeed, and stand out.

As we mark 125 years, we look forward — with the same passion for innovation and the same commitment to our customers. Because baking success isn’t just about the right ingredients. It’s about having the right partner.

Let’s shape the future of baking together. Visit us at Hall 15 / Food 4 at iba 2025 or explore more at explore.zeelandia.com.
