Alfred L Wolff has recently sold the European distribution of the hydrocolloids Guar Gum, Xanthan, Carrageenan, Tara Gum and Locust Bean Gum, as well as of Shellac, Damar and Copal resins, to A2 Trading Ltd.

As of 1 March 2008, the aforementioned raw materials will no longer be marketed by Alfred L Wolff but by A2 Trading. In the field of hydrocolloids, Alfred L Wolff will further enhance its market position with gum arabic (acacia gum) and agar-agar.

Alexander Wolff, General Manager of Alfred L Wolff GmbH, and Mirko Ahrens, General Manager of A2 Trading Ltd, are convinced that the European clients will benefit from this distribution channel and from A2 Trading's specific knowledge of the hydrocolloid business.
