VUC Services launches its own Honey Powder, an all-natural sweetener made from spray-dried honey on a maltodextrin base. Honey Powder is a useful addition to baked goods and speciality products like Halva to provide a natural honey taste in a dry, bulk form. It is commonly found as well in cosmetics such as creams, lotions, soaps and bath salts. It can be used as a stand-alone topping or an alterntative sweetener for coffee or tea. We can provide additional blended combinations to increase relative sweetness with natural fructose, cane sugar or stevia.

VUC SERVICES joins SEDEX
SEDEX, the Supplier Ethical Data Exchange, is an online information exchange for businesses committed continually to improving the ethical performance of their supply chains. It focuses on four areas: labour standards, health & safety, environment and business integrity.
SEDEX enables member companies to more efficiently manage the ethical and responsible practices of their global supply chains through a software platform and a standard self-assessment questionnaire, which unifies the auditing process. The system provides risk assessments of suppliers based on the self-assessment questionnaire, which all suppliers must fill out when joining. This generates increased transparency through the provision of a secure, robust, and user-friendly information and data exchange.
SEDEX encourages a collaborative approach to, and management of, ethical and responsible business practices. SEDEX will enable VUC SERVICES to efficiently manage the ethical and responsible practices of our supply chains.
VUC SERVICES has already completed the SEDEX self-assessment reporting, and its data is free and accessible to all of its customers who are also members of SEDEX. In addition, VUC SERVICES invites customer-initiated audits of its ethical responsibilities. The SEDEX program is a great opportunity for VUC SERVICES to join the growing list of companies committed to promoting ethical supply chain standards and transparency and collaborate with its customer base to pursue sustainable supply chain efficiencies.
