Quality | Sustainability | Trust

The world of spelt is constantly changing – and Schapfen Quality Spelt keeps pace with the times. Through continuous evaluation and the use of the latest spelt varieties, we combine long-standing expertise with the latest scientific findings. We do not stick to existing varieties, but focus on adaptability and innovation to consistently achieve the best results for you.

Our modern spelt varieties offer numerous benefits:

• Reduced risk of disease: Compared to older varieties, modern cultivars require fewer pesticides – a crucial step towards protecting the environment.
• Excellent baking properties: Schapfen Quality Spelt combines first-class baking quality with sustainable farming practices, without prioritising the highest protein content. This is how we combine environmental protection with customer satisfaction.
• Technical purity: Purity is a key quality characteristic that underscores the naturalness and authenticity of our products.

Responsibility for the environment and well-being

Sustainability is firmly rooted in our philosophy. Our Schapfen quality spelt is produced in an environmentally friendly way. Here are just a few examples:

• Predominantly regionally sourced produce: Short transport distances reduce CO₂ emissions and support local agriculture.
• Modern spelt varieties with reduced susceptibility to disease: a lower need for plant protection products helps protect soil and biodiversity.
• Efficient energy management: Since 2014, SchapfenMühle has been operating a certified energy management system designed to continuously reduce energy consumption.

A boon for nature and future generations.

The well-being of our consumers is also our top priority.

We specifically focus on spelt varieties that are particularly well suited to various applications – whether as high-quality flour, puffed spelt or nutrient-rich flakes. Each variety is carefully selected and tested to ensure optimal processing properties and the best results. 

During production, we take great care to preserve the natural nutrients of the spelt. Through gentle processes and state-of-the-art technology, we ensure the full content of vitamins, minerals and fibre – for a health-conscious diet with real added value.

Trust and local roots

Schapfen Quality Spelt is not just a product, but a link between farmers, processors and consumers. Through guaranteed off-take and comprehensive advice, we actively support farmers and create a stable regional value chain. Our aim is to preserve and strengthen the agricultural sector, which forms the foundation of our high-quality products.

Values that inspire

With Schapfen Quality Spelt, we offer more than just spelt products – we offer a promise. This promise is based on our core values:

• Expertise: Years of experience and state-of-the-art technology guarantee top quality.
• Sustainability: Environmentally conscious cultivation and processing help protect our resources.
• Transparency: From cultivation to processing – every step is traceable for our partners and consumers.
• Reliability: Strong partnerships and guaranteed off-take create stability and trust.
• Digestibility: Our spelt products stand for quality that not only tastes good but is often better tolerated by people with wheat sensitivity (non-coeliac wheat sensitivity). However, like all wheat-based baked goods, spelt baked goods contain gluten and must not be consumed by people with coeliac disease (gluten intolerance).
