We work with food and beverage manufacturers, nutrition brands, ice cream producers, QSRs and industrial food manufacturers to develop dairy ingredients and products that meet your exact formulation, performance and production requirements.
Our R&D team is based on-site in Waikato, working alongside manufacturing. That means concepts can be trialled, refined and scaled within the same controlled environment, with your specifications built in from the start.

How we can support you
- Adaptations of existing Tatua ingredients to suit your formulation or application
- New ingredient variations to meet specific nutritional, functional or sensory targets
- Customised dairy-based food products for commercial, retail or industrial use
- Prototypes trialled in pilot environments before committing to full production
- Products scaled into routine manufacture under defined, documented specifications

Third Party Manufacturing
Tatua also works as a production partner for specialised protein ingredients. If you have a product concept that requires a manufacturing partner with high food quality and food safety standards, get in touch with our team.

Packaging and Format
We offer a range of packaging formats to suit different operational needs, including aseptic packing in Bag in Box through to one tonne pallecons.
