Schär's Quality Commitment
At Schär, we strive to offer superior tasting food based on strong innovation because that’s what lets us achieve our goals: to delight our consumers at all moments of the day and all stages of their lives, and to help them make nutritionally balanced choices.
The foundations of our quality commitment
Ingredients
The broad range of nutritious raw ingredients we use, provide our products with an unmistakable taste and aroma. Various naturally gluten-free grains, such as corn and rice, as well as alternative grains such as millet, buckwheat, oats, sorghum and quinoa, play an important role in ensuring our products are appealing and have a high nutritional value.
Supply Chain
We carefully control every step of the supply chain. With Schär, there is always full traceability: from the field to your table, we ensure that ingredients are sourced responsibly and with the highest standards of quality and safety.
What Additives?
We uphold a responsible approach towards our food, ensuring that our products are free from artificial flavours, aromas, colouring, and preservatives.
The absence of gluten poses a significant challenge for the sensory quality of gluten-free products, altering both flavour and texture. No ingredient alone can replace the structural and sensory benefits of gluten, but a blend of several ingredients is required to optimize palatability and structure. Some auxiliary ingredients are also used in manufacturing gluten-free foods; these are particularly important for the texture of the end product. We use thickening agents and dietary fiber as a replacement for the binding qualities of gluten, ensuring that our products maintain their desired texture and palatability without compromising on quality.
Safety
Our raw ingredients are always gluten-free, guaranteed. And to avoid cross-contamination, we maintain a strict allergen control system. Additionally, our products are produced in a 100% gluten-free environment, ensuring the utmost safety for those with celiac disease. With Schär, you can trust that you're in safe hands, with every precaution taken to provide you with gluten-free products you can rely on.
Nutritional Quality
When it comes to sugar, salt, fiber, fat, or protein, we are always challenging the standard. Our commitment to nutritional excellence extends beyond gluten-free requirements. We continually update our recipes with less salt and sugar, aligning with principles of general health prevention.
In our New Product Development (NPD) process, we foster a strict relationship between our product developers and specialized nutritionists. Together, they strive to achieve the best recipe, balancing all nutrients to meet our high standards of nutritional quality. With Schär, you can trust that every product is crafted with your health and well-being in mind.
The consumer
Our gluten-free innovation and research start with a complete dedication to our consumers. We go along with them in their gluten-free journey, aiming to be there for them during the introduction to the new gluten-free diet and to facilitate the transition to a new lifestyle in the easiest way possible. Our consumer commitment extends to integrating the best ingredients into a balanced and healthy diet. We are driven to their needs and preferences, ensuring that our products not only meet their dietary requirements but also enhance their overall well-being.
