We are SWT
(PRONOUNCED AS SWEET)
We are an interdisciplinary team of sweetness fanatics, born from startups in Chile and Mexico. We are connected by a common passion; producing stevia leaves, extracts and sweet solutions which provide added functionality, reduced sugar, low calories and a great taste for our customers.
What did we do?
We realized that an excess of sugar is added into processed foods across the world.
We envisioned the need to reduce that sugar excess through a 100% natural approach, without affecting the taste of the products we love.
So we searched all over the globe and found a plant called Stevia Rebaudiana Bertoni, which produces family of sweet compounds we refer to as stevia extract.
What did we create?
The first organic stevia production process, which is 100% aqueous during all stages of extraction and purification.
We took on a challenge: Maintain the purity and the integrity of stevia from leaf to extract. We developed the first organic process for extracting and purifying this wonderful sweetener without the use of alcohol or enzymes. In fact, our stevia is 100% purified in water.
If you want to sweeten anything from a cup of tea to your morning coffee or cake, we can do it 100% naturally and with fewer calories.
Vision
We work to constantly improve our sweetness even further in quality and nutritional profile.
We aim to meet your every expectation, and to live by our mission statement: To do what we say on every label, with every drop of sweetness.
Mission
We want to deliver healthy sweetness solutions, which are natural and organic. These solutions are always high quality and low process, in accordance to our principles of honesty, consistency, sustainability and responsibility.
Our mission is to deliver healthy, organic sweetness of natural origin, processed non-invasivelyand of excellent quality. We do this honestly, consistently, sustainably and responsibly.
Sustainability
We are convinced of the wonderful ability of the stevia plant to produce natural sweetness efficiently and sustainably. A stevia culture can deliver between 20 to 30 times the sweetness of sugar for the same crop surface area. On the other hand, we never process a product in a way that damages its natural goodness. Since 2019 we have produced 100% of our electricity through renewable sources, and we work to significantly reduce the use of water in all of our processes, recirculating any water used to make the process as eco-friendly as possible. In addition, we work to reduce any wastage of the stevia leaf or its by-products.
Our company does not use alcohol of any kind in any stage of the purification process
This way, the products that we obtain from the purification process are suitable for use in various industries. We have created every step within our cyclical economy to ensure healthy and sustainable production methods.
