Shipping update

While the situation in Iran has not yet resulted in significant freight rate increases, we are seeing some shipping delays and the situation remains volatile. We are monitoring this closely and will keep buyers informed. We recommend building lead time into your planning where possible.

Clean-label is no longer optional. In 2026, it’s a baseline requirement—and for many brands, a key factor in supplier selection.

Your customers are looking for more than simple ingredient lists. They want confidence in how ingredients are processed, where they come from, and how consistently they can be supplied. This shift is putting pressure on procurement teams to find partners who can deliver both transparency and performance.

At Tradelink, this is exactly where we add value.

Our steam-based processing avoids chemical solvents and supports minimal treatment, helping preserve the natural integrity of ingredients while aligning with clean-label expectations. This means you can simplify formulations without compromising functionality or quality.

At the same time, our focus on traceability gives you clear visibility across the supply chain—from origin to final ingredient. This not only supports your compliance needs, but also strengthens your ability to communicate transparency to your own customers.

We also understand that clean-label only works if supply is reliable. That’s why we combine processing integrity with consistent quality and dependable delivery, so you can scale with confidence.

In a market where trust is becoming the deciding factor, clean-label is about more than what’s removed—it’s about what’s proven.

Tradelink helps you deliver ingredients that are clean, traceable, and ready to perform.
