How do we meet agri-food needs?

Humens produces sodium bicarbonates that offer several key features to meet the needs of the agri-food industry. With its properties as a raising agent, sodium bicarbonate can be used in bakery and pastry applications to cook cakes, crackers, waffles, and more. It is also used in drinks for its carbonating and/or foaming properties.
The quality of our sodium bicarbonate is tightly controlled throughout the production process. We apply HACCP principles and guidelines to guarantee that our food ingredients are always safe.
