wheyco - that's whey better

Our claim, philosophy and advantage

Growing and improving since 2004

wheyco was founded in 2004 as an independent joint venture between HUMANA and NORDMILCH. In the course of the merger of the two companies in May 2012, wheyco was integrated into the arose DMK Group as an independent subsidiary and is now part of DMK Industry, the ingredients business of DMK Group. Within DMK Industry wheyco represents the whey-based ingredients part of the business.
As an independent business unit within the DMK Group, the main focus at DMK Industry is to become a preferred partner for the industry. With two main areas, whey-based and milk-based ingredients, the business unit offers a complete nature-based dairy portfolio – extended by a portfolio of dairy alternatives.

Since the first days of wheyco, we follow a consistent philosophy set out by the founders of our company. The fair, reliable and responsible approach to business characterizes wheyco since ever then. We do see customers as partners, accordingly collaborations are closely and cooperatively.
