Let’s grow together with Research & Development

We have been working with raw materials such as oils and fats for 40 years: it is our most deeply rooted expertise… it is in our DNA! We know the characteristics of every single ingredient, as well as the laws of nature that govern possible interactions; we have mastered the production processes, always striving for the best results.

We believe in cross-fertilization, triggered by working closely with the academic world, but also with the technical departments of our main suppliers and customers (which allows for mutual enrichment). We collaborate with universities and the scientific world to stay constantly informed about the latest developments.

Vertical integration is one of Unigrà’s greatest strengths and the fundamental reason for choosing it as a business partner. We know key raw materials better than anyone else because we produce them in-house, designing them according to specific needs and ensuring freshness, quality, and competitiveness.

We also guarantee the supply of ingredients that we purchase from third parties: for us, the origin, selection, and choice of suppliers are determining factors. We take care of every detail of these aspects, always striving for the highest quality standards.

At Unigrà production isn’t just a routine process: we constantly connect our R&D and production departments, to set up, optimise and standardise new processes, while monitoring the existing ones. This is the basis of our day-to-day work: technologists are constantly present in the production departments, creating a synergy between innovation and expertise.

For us productivity never translates into mere routine execution: we maintain constant dialogue between the Research and Development departments and the production department in order to set up, optimize, and standardize new processes and monitor established ones. This is how we organize our day-to-day work: we maintain a continuous presence of technologists in the production departments, creating synergy between innovation and experience.

To invest in its growth and meet all new requirements, Unigrà constantly enhances its product range. Attention to market trends and experimentation with new ideas are the basis of this continuous evolution. Added to this is the search for solutions that, while maintaining the same taste, guarantee a reduction in “bads” (sugars, saturated fats, salt, etc.) and an increase in “goods” (such as omega-3, fiber, vitamins, etc.).

This is an essential challenge to help you find new answers for increasingly attentive and aware consumers.

We are at your side with a problem-solving approach and constant proactivity.

We provide information, guidance, and suggestions on all current issues in the food world, making our scientific expertise available to you. We can also support you in regulatory matters, assisting you in business management in compliance with current regulations.
