Let’s grow together with Research & Development
To support your business, we start from the “raw materials” of our work: research and innovation.
Science and technology
Science and technology are applied to the world of food to create amazing solutions, where business insights mingle with the strict application of the laws of chemistry, physics, biology and mathematics.
Forefront
Our goal? Always be at the forefront on innovation.
Expertise and experience lead to always find the ideal formula and the tailor-made solution for every product and every customer.

Know-how
Our 40 years of experience in the oil and fats industry represents a skill firmly rooted in our DNA! We know the properties of every single ingredient, as well as the laws of nature that govern their possible interactions. We master the production processes striving for the best result achievable. We believe in cross-fertilisation, triggered both by working side by side with the academic world and through the technical means of our main suppliers and customers (generating a mutual increase in know-how). We collaborate with universities and the scientific world to keep abreast of the latest developments.
Raw materials
Vertical integration is one of Unigrà’s major strengths as well as the essential reason why you should choose us as a business partner. We know key raw materials better than anyone else because we produce and design them internally, according to specific requirements and ensuring freshness, quality and competitiveness.
We also guarantee the procurement of any ingredients that we purchase from third parties. For us, the origin, selection and choice of suppliers are key factors. We take care of every one of these aspects by seeking out the highest quality standards at all times.
Production processes
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.
Trends
Unigrà constantly enhances its product range to invest in its growth and meet any new needs. The focus on market trends as well as the test of new ideas are at the core of this ongoing evolution, together with the research of solutions that, while maintaining their taste unchanged, ensure the reductions of “bads” (sugars, saturated fats, salt…) and the right amount of “goods” (such as omega-3, fibres, vitamins…).
This is a fundamental challenge to find answers for increasingly health-conscious and well-informed consumers.
Customer support
We’re by your side to constantly deliver a problem solving and proactive approach.
We provide information, data and recommendations on all the current food topics, making available our scientific expertise. We can also provide support on regulatory affairs, ensuring that your business management complies with the applicable regulations.
