Welcome to Willy Benecke. The company was founded in 1954 by Willy Benecke. It trades and produces natural gums and resins for the food industry as well as various other sectors. Centrally located in the Hanseatic city of Hamburg, it has a global logistics network and over 20 foreign representatives.
7,000 m2 of storage space, its own laboratory, as well as production and refinement ensure consistently the highest quality. The company was taken over by Dietmar Hauser in 1982 and is now managed in the third generation by Thorsten and Soeren Hauser. Through many years of experience and the use of the latest technologies, it stands for quality, continuity, and reliability.
This is underscored by independent certification according to the globally recognized standards IFS and FSSC 22000.
