<\/p>\nThe food technology company KaTech Katharina Hahn + Partner GmbH has awarded the „KaTe” prize for pioneering food research for the first time.
\nDr.-Ing. Ulrike Sabine van der Schaaf from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) received the prize for her work on the emulsifying and emulsion stabilising properties of Citrus Pectin.

From now on outstanding research projects will be awarded every three years.<\/p>\n
Katharina Hahn explains: „For many years I have taken a great interest in the major issues of how to ensure sufficient food for the growing population without continuing to damage or pollute the habitat of our fauna or the natural environment overall. Mutual respect, tolerance and appreciation lay an important foundation for all my actions.”<\/p>\n
Nutrition has always been one of the major concerns to the world. More than ever, there is a strong, worldwide demand for healthy and sustainable products. Producers as well as the food processing industry and their suppliers need to take responsibility and find solutions for the future. KaTech Katharina Hahn + Partner GmbH is contributing by awarding the prize „KaTech” to support outstanding food research projects.<\/p>\n

Today, more than 160 years later, Katharina Hahn is looking to breaking new ground once more.<\/p>\n
