I think color makes food more exciting, unusual and special. I discovered the purple yam Ube a few years ago and developed my first syrup with Ube. I quickly added other delicious and unusual flavors like hemp or tonka bean.
Why is innovation good for the industry?
To stand out, amaze, please and create demand. In the post-Corona era, it takes incentives for customers to choose products. Old-fashioned recipes can be turned into eye-catchers with the syrup by a flick of the wrist.
Our company stands out with edible flowers and toppings of all kinds. The USP is our gentle drying process. We completely avoid pesticides or additives and rely purely on solar power. As a result, our products look like freshly harvested, yet have a shelf life of over three years.

Food sector is responsible for more than 25% of the total environmental impact. To reduce it, it is important that the food industry move faster through the ecological transition.
To do so, we need to have an harmonized methodology allowing to measure the environmental impact of products and organizations. This system has to be easily implementable in the industry. There are many different claims present on the market, each based on different methodologies and each of them giving different results. This is really confusing for the consumers, and it makes the ecological transition impossible.
This is why we have created a unique digital platform that models the PEF / OEF (Product / Organization Environmental Footprint) and that allows to master easily this approach. The PEF is the most scientific and robust methodology available on the market. This is the only one recommended by the European Commission.
Our mission is to help our customers from the food sector towards their environmental conversion journey. Thanks to this new tool, the most robust methodology for environmental assessment is now easily accessible for the industry.
Why is GF-Impact unique and what does it bring for the Industry?
The majority of claims and tools available are related to carbon emission and climate change. However, this is representing only 1/3 of the real environmental impact of the products or organizations.
The Product Environmental Footprint methodology (PEF) is not only about CO2! It is assessing 16 impacting factors. Of course, greenhouse gas emissions are included, but criteria's like water scarcity, land used, toxicity or pollution are also taken into account. And for the 1st time we make this method easily accessible for the food sector thanks to our unique digital platform.
The platform calculates the Environmental performance of your products. You can then easily understand which are the most impacting factors, helping you to set priorities to improve your products and to take actions. The eco-design module allow to integrate environmental impact simulations as of the first steps of your R&D process.
Willing to assess your products or organization impact?
-Then, the PEF and OEF are the most robust methodologies
-Our platform allows an easy implementation of those methodologies
-It is action oriented and it makes sure that the actions that you’ll take will be impactful.
