Ulrick + Short are specialists in functional ingredients, clean labels and better recipes.

We pride ourselves not just on the rigour and skills of our science, but on our ability to solve the problems our customers face. Whether it’s about texture, nutrition or simplification, we’re able to tailor specific solutions to specific challenges. It’s our own unique working formula, developed not in the lab, but in partnership and collaboration with our customers across 25 years of business.

We offer a comprehensive range of functional clean label ingredients designed to overcome challenges such as fat or sugar reduction, fibre and protein fortification, phosphate removal, texture improvements and allergen-free development. Each solution is developed to integrate efficiently into existing manufacturing processes and to simplify ingredient declarations.

Our ingredients are used across a wide range of food sectors, including bakery, meat and fish, ready meals, soups and sauces, vegetarian and vegan, organic, batters and coatings, and performance foods. With a focus on cleaner labels, transparent ingredient lists, and technical support, we help manufacturers develop products that meet both consumer expectations and production requirements.
