H Plus Limited

H Plus was incorporated and initially set up in 1997 to manage the sales and marketing of Malic Acid and Fumaric Acid in Europe and the Middle East on behalf of the World’s leading manufacturer Bartek Ingredients Inc., Canada. In late 2000, H Plus Limited became the UK distributor for Bartek and expanded our product range to target the wellness sector of the food industry. Consequently we agreed UK representations with Jungbunzlauer Ladenburg Gmbh (Coated ingredients), Musashino Chemical Company (Lactic acid and its Salts) and Nutrition Supplies (Vitamin / Mineral blends). A natural consequence of this expansion, is that some of our products have application in the non-food sector and indeed the pharmaceutical industry. In May 2001, we were awarded ISO 9002 and subsequently ISO 9001: 2000 accreditation in 2004. We entered the Organic market in 2005 by starting a cooperation with Shafi Gluco-Chem, Pakistan (Rice Syrups and Proteins) and consequently became a licence holder for the Soil Association. As the average age of people increases and the desire to live longer grows stronger, there is a demand on the food industry to provide more convenience foods where the goodness has been put back. Vitamins, minerals and other such functional foods are added but often taste is compromised. Good taste determines the success of the food and this is established using the correct flavouring and acidulant system.
