Treatt

Renowned for its expertise in citrus extracts, Treatt has built a global reputation for technical excellence, agility and excellent service. Today, that heritage extends into high-growth spaces such as sugar reduction and tea, where the company’s formulation skills are generating high demand from consumers and long-term partnerships with some of the world’s most famous brands.

Opportunities in sugar reduction in soft drinks offer further scope to increase sales and profit margins while contributing to better public health.

Treatt is well-positioned for continued, sustainable growth powered by in-house technologies, a good pipeline of new products and a global team that brings deep industry knowledge to every customer relationship.

Treatt sources natural ingredients from a complex supply chain which spans multiple geographies and is exposed to climate variability, crop failures and geopolitical disruptions. Climate change, particularly increased water stress, for citrus suppliers in South America are particularly at risk due to the impacts on quality, yields and prices. 

The risk of labour violations in the supply chain is heightened by Treatt’s reliance on agricultural goods for its ingredients. The agricultural sector involves risks such as informal and insecure work, dangerous working conditions, low pay, and a vulnerable workforce, especially in regions such as South America where workers often lack guaranteed rights.

Treatt’s products are used in some alcoholic beverages, a category subject to evolving health regulations. Failure to manage this challenge could lead to reputational damage, regulatory scrutiny and operational disruption.
