Giving our best to create high-quality products from nature’s gifts using state-of-the-art processing technologies. Our business partners can build on this solid foundation, as we offer the same high-quality fruit juice concentrates, fruit flavours and fruit purées that we use for the Pfanner brand.
We make sure that our fruit is grown in accordance with the principles of sustainable development. We purchase ripe fruit that meets these requirements. To meet these standards even more closely and maintain greater control over quality, we operate our own orchards, some of which are certified organic, using environmentally responsible fruit-growing practices:
As much nature as possible is our guiding principle.
Our roots are in Europe, and it’s a region we know well. We are always searching for the very best Europe has to offer. Austria and its eastern neighbouring countries, for example, have the perfect climate for growing tart apples and pears. In Basilicata in southern Italy, meanwhile, exceptionally flavourful peaches, apricots and tomatoes thrive. We process the sun-ripened fruits directly in these regions to capture their freshness and authentic flavour at its best. To allow the fruits to develop their full flavour, we place particular importance on ripeness and careful selection. Only fruits that have reached the optimal stage of ripeness are carefully processed.
Creating high-quality products from nature’s gifts is our highest priority. Creating high-quality products from nature’s gifts is our highest priority. We therefore take the utmost care when processing our fruit. Using a wide range of state-of-the-art technologies, we transform freshly harvested raw materials into premium fruit juice concentrates, fruit flavours and fruit purées.
Our state-of-the-art, rapid and gentle fruit-processing methods enable us to preserve the highest quality and the authentic flavour of the fruit. This allows us to reliably meet our customers’ high-quality standards.
We apply the highest quality standards at every stage of the production process. Through comprehensive inspections and audits by external certification bodies, we continuously improve our processes and ensure the consistently high quality of our products.
In addition to producing fruit juices and iced teas, Pfanner has more than 80 years of experience in fruit processing.

Pfanner also offers many of these high-quality fruit products in certified organic quality (organic certification numbers AT-BIO-301 and DE-ÖKO-007) and baby food quality.
Our not-from-concentrate juices are made from fresh, wholesome and ripe fruit. They are processed in such a way that neither their sensory characteristics nor their nutritional values are altered, thereby preserving the characteristics of the original fruit.
Our concentrates are made from fresh, wholesome and ripe fruit. By removing a large proportion of the water, a high-quality fruit juice concentrate is produced.
Our purées offer a natural, authentic fruit flavour combined with a pleasant mouthfeel. They are ideal for further processing into fruit juices, nectars and smoothies, as well as jams, fruit fillings and dressings. Purée concentrates are concentrates with a Brix value of 20° or 30°, based on the partial concentration of the original purée.
Our flavours are made from fresh, wholesome and ripe fruit and processed in such a way that the fruit’s natural characteristics are preserved.
