Kemin is compelled to make our planet a safe, healthy, and sustainable place to live today and for future generations to come.
As a provider of key ingredients for food safety, shelf life, and yield enhancement, we are committed to providing responsible sourcing, waste reduction, and more.
Kemin scientists continually breed new lines of specialty crops to boost production and efficiencies, supporting continuous crop improvement. For example, increasing the antioxidant concentration produced per unit of biomass results in fewer acres harvested and less land disturbed by farming. Year after year, more end products can be produced with the same inputs, creating a positive impact on sustainability.
Kemin utilizes a sustainable agronomic growing approach for our rosemary that is certified "Sustainably Grown" by SCS Global Services.
All Kemin rosemary fields, labs, and manufacturing and blending facilities are traceable and auditable at 6 locations worldwide, including:

Our FORTIUM® plant-derived oxidation solutions can help extend shelf life by delaying lipid oxidation in baked goods, snacks, fats and oils. SHIELD® and BactoCEASE® can help extend shelf life by preventing microbial growth.
Our clean label functional proteins, Proteus® and InnoBLQ™ can help improve production efficiencies, resulting in increased yield and plant throughput, improved batter adhesion and reduced oil usage.
Kemin supplies a wide variety of food protection ingredients including antioxidants, antimicrobials, and yield enhancement solutions.
