Pfeifer & Langen GmbH & Co. KG

About us

Peifer & Langen is one of Europe’s leading sugar producers with more than 155 years of experience. Founded in Cologne in 1870, we combine strong roots with a clear ambition: to take what’s good and continuously make it better.

At our production and processing sites across Europe, we transform sugar beet into high-quality sugar products. With well-known brands such as Diamant and Kölner Zucker, our products are part of everyday life in millions of households. At the same time, our sugars are ingredients in countless products made by industrial customers in the food industry, in chemical and pharmaceutical sectors, as well as the animal feed industry across Europe.

Our portfolio ranges from crystal and icing sugars to liquid sugars, fondants, caramel sugar syrups, speciality sugars, organic products and customised sugar solutions tailored to our customers’ individual requirements. Our customers benefit from decades of expertise, consistently high quality and products tailored to their individual requirements. Whether it’s a specific crystal size, formulation or functional property, we work closely with our partners to develop solutions that fit their products and processes.

Sugar beet is at the heart of what we do. By sourcing predominantly from the regions surrounding our factories, we keep transport routes short, strengthen local agriculture and maintain close, long-term partnerships with our growers. At the same time, we continuously invest in modern production, research and new technologies – from innovative sugar solutions to more efficient and sustainable cultivation and processing.

For Pfeifer & Langen, tradition and progress belong together. As a family-owned company, we think in generations and stand for reliability, responsibility and entrepreneurial courage – creating solutions for our customers, our agricultural partners and the future of sugar.
