How coffee works

Norddeutsche Kaffeewerke GmbH - NDKW for short - is one of the most advanced production facilities for freeze-dried coffee in Europe. Ideally located for land and sea routes, we deliver more than 4,500 tonnes of instant coffee annually to international clients - and gladly to you as well. Labelled and packaged according to your specifications. 

Since 2012, we have been part of the Strauss Group, one of the world's leading coffee companies. The central purchasing department in Switzerland cooperates with the best coffee producers in South America, Asia and Africa. Their high-quality coffees are used to create our standard products and customised blends. 

 

Instant coffees made from the best beans

Freeze-drying is the gentlest production process for instant coffee. It preserves the high quality of the beans and the full flavour. But only a few coffee producers have the special equipment and know-how. That is why we produce the instant coffee for these companies and some private labels.

Arabica, Robusta or Blends

It's the blend that counts. It determines the taste and texture - and allows for new, individual blends.

Microgrind

Our freeze-dried instant coffee made from micro-fine ground roasted coffee dissolves ideally in water. The balanced flavour remains.

Coffee concentrates

Advanced extraction processes preserve the nuanced flavours of the beans in our dry and liquid coffee extracts.

Contract goods

In addition, NDKW process coffee at each stage of production as a separate service. This includes roasting, extraction and freeze-drying.

Manufacturing process

Our freeze-drying process is complex, but of higher quality than spray-drying or agglomeration. Most of the flavours are retained.

Commissioned production

In addition to our standard products, we develop unique blends with characteristic aromas for you and your customers.

Packaging solutions

We deliver our coffee blends in 25-kg bulks. Or individually branded and portioned by creative specialists.

Good is not enough - we do better

We use selected raw materials and modern technologies for our freeze-dried instant coffee. Only when all parameters meet the highest standards is the coffee perfect. We measure ourselves against this maxim with every order.

Full service 

From the purchase of the beans to the production of the coffee product to the delivery in the desired portion - we do it.

Innovation

Process technology from leading suppliers and internationally coordinated further development - this is how we ensure efficient processes.

Experience

Our specialists and the Strauss Coffee Technology Center in Israel - together, coffee becomes a passion.

Quality 

The best beans, gentle processing and the highest European product standards - quality knows no compromises.

Flexibility

Fast access to ports, motorway and rail networks - our supply chains from Central Europe are reliable, affordable and sustainable.

Responsibility

Open, social and reliable - clients, employees and suppliers benefit from the values and stability of the Strauss Group.

From Hamburg to the whole world

Hamburg is the "gateway to the world" and logistically superior to other metropolises. The world's largest transshipment point for green coffee and Europe's third largest container port offers ideal access to international waterways. Hamburg is also Europe's largest railway hub. Hamburg International Airport connects the continents by air, and the European motorway network enables efficient overland transport.
