Meat products
Van Hessen supplies top quality when it comes to meat products. Our experienced professionals and sophisticated machinery assure first-class products. We guarantee quality and traceability by picking up fresh products from slaughterhouses every day. These products are collected at central points across the globe, where they are processed and frozen immediately. After this the products are stored to company standards.
Pharmaceutical products
Many important medicines are derived from animal origin and have been used as such for thousands of years. Today we know exactly what valuable substances animal organs and other animal materials contain. Innovative technologies allow us to extract these substances. Once extracted, they are used as base materials for medication and a range of dietary supplements.
