Explore our certified range of processed fruits, vegetables, and plant-based protein ingredients catering to global food manufacturers.
Industrial tomato paste serves as the foundational backbone for a multitude of consumer food products, ranging from standard table ketchups and rich pasta sauces to dry instant soups and reconstituted vegetable juices. As global food manufacturers demand greater consistency, supply chain traceability, and strict adherence to microbiological metrics, selecting the right raw material exporter becomes an executive-level decision.
Industrial processing tomatoes are fundamentally different from fresh table tomatoes. Bred for high soluble solids (measured as Brix), thick cell walls, and intense natural red pigmentation (lycopene), these varieties undergo specialized mechanical harvest and thermal extraction steps designed to preserve natural pectin structures. Our role as a primary processor is to ensure that these native qualities are systematically maintained throughout the concentration and aseptic packaging process.
Through our vast agricultural footprint and technologically advanced processing plants, we bridge the gap between large-scale agricultural cultivation and the precise engineering requirements of major food brands worldwide. We offer customized viscosity profiles (Hot Break vs. Cold Break), varying Brix concentrations, and guaranteed microbiological safety metrics designed to fit seamlessly into high-speed retail packaging lines.
We manufacture industrial tomato paste according to strict international physical and chemical parameters, ensuring compliance with global food processing standards.

Cold Break paste is processed at lower temperatures (65°C - 75°C), allowing natural enzymes to partially break down the pectin. This results in a lower viscosity product that offers excellent natural tomato flavor, brighter red color, and high solubility, perfect for reconstituting tomato juices, soups, and ready-to-drink beverages.
Hot Break paste is processed at higher temperatures (95°C - 105°C), which rapidly deactivates the natural pectinase enzymes (PG & PME). This maintains the natural high-molecular-weight pectin chains, yielding a thick, stable, and highly viscous paste ideal for ketchup, pasta sauces, and gravies that require minimal water separation.
We are specialized in organic-grade tomato paste. Cultivated in virgin organic soils without synthetic pesticides or inorganic nitrogen fertilizers, our organic tomato paste meets the demanding requirements of consumers seeking clean label, organic, non-GMO, and sustainable foods.
Hebei Abiding Co., Ltd. established in 2005 is a professional supplier of foods and food ingredients in China. We have one perfect mechanism including raw materials supplying, production, sales, after-sales service to ensure to supply the qualified products to the customers. Some of our core products we are handling are vegetable proteins, fruit and vegetable juice and purees, FD/AD fruit and vegetables, plant-based products and various food ingredients and additives.
As a certified EU & NOP organic products supplier with more than 20 years experiences in the organic food fields, we have been ranked the largest exporter of the organic tomato paste in China for many years. We have our own organic farms and processing facilities in different provinces in China to ensure that our products strictly comply with organic standards.
Our long-term commitment to sustainability, technology-driven manufacturing, and strict quality control systems has allowed us to establish lasting relationships with major food brands and co-packers worldwide, securing a steady, reliable supply of high-grade raw materials.
We provide high-capacity industrial raw material solutions tailored to the diverse processing requirements of modern food and beverage factories.
For ketchup and hot-fill sauce manufacturers, consistency is vital. Our Hot Break tomato paste provides high water-binding capacity, reducing the need for hydrocolloids and synthetic thickeners, resulting in clean-label products with excellent mouthfeel and stability.
Our Cold Break raw paste is characterized by low viscosity and high solubility, which allows beverage producers to easily dilute the material back to 100% juice strength without sediment build-up or separation in retail bottles.
With our certified EU & NOP organic tomato paste, clean-label processors can safely claim organic certification status. We offer fully audited supply chain traceability from the seed through the processing plant directly to your manufacturing warehouse.
We adapt our raw materials to align with modern nutritional trends, including plant-based, clean-label, vegan, and organic dietary habits.
It is well known that more and more people care to take the healthy, safe and nutritious foods. The foods with the high protein, high fiber, low calorie, Vegan, GMO free, gluten free and even Keto friendly are more popular. So above requirements bring us to one new world. With our good experience in the organic fields, we also successfully explore the products with such special characters to meet the customer requests. We have the confidence that this field would be one wide potential market full of chance.
We have established long-term and stable business cooperation with many customers around the world and have won the good reputation there.

We understand that the preservation of freshness and micro-stability during transit is critical. Our industrial products are packaged to withstand long-term global shipping.
Tomato juice is concentrated under strict low-temperature vacuum systems to protect raw nutrients and natural red color values.
The concentrated tomato paste undergoes rapid sterilization to eliminate microbial activity while preserving the delicate tomato flavor notes.
Paste is filled aseptically into multi-barrier foil liners placed within 220-liter steel drums or 1000-liter large wooden bins.
Drums are loaded, secured, and shipped internationally under dry cargo or cool storage conditions depending on transit route lengths.
We deploy rigorous physical, chemical, and organoleptic testing routines across every single batch of industrial raw materials we ship.
Every single batch of processing tomato fruit undergoes screening for pesticide residues and heavy metals (Lead, Cadmium, Arsenic) to ensure compliance with strict European Commission regulations and USDA limits.
From the seed supply given to contracted organic growers to agricultural field records and individual aseptic drum numbers, our traceability chain allows us to isolate batch histories in less than 4 hours.
Our manufacturing sites undergo annual audits by accredited registrars to maintain active certifications for BRCGS, IFS Food, ISO 22000, Kosher, Halal, EU Organic, and USDA NOP Organic standards.
Technical answers to help food technologists, purchasing directors, and logistics managers make informed procurement decisions.
28-30% Brix paste is the most common industry standard, offering high versatility for medium viscosity formulations. 36-38% Brix paste is highly concentrated, providing higher yield efficiency and saving on storage and transportation costs, making it ideal for high-volume processors who reconstitute paste into retail products like ketchup or retail paste jars.
Bostwick viscosity measures how far the paste flows under its own weight in a given time frame. For ketchup and thick sauces, a low Bostwick value (meaning thick, Hot Break paste) is crucial because it ensures the finished condiment stays on the food item without weeping water. In contrast, beverage manufacturers require higher Bostwick values (thinner, Cold Break paste) for easier reconstitution and smooth liquid flows.
Our industrial tomato paste is sterilized using high-temperature processing (UHT) and filled directly into pre-sterilized, multi-layer aseptic barrier bags under sterile steam environments. This process guarantees a commercial shelf life of 24 months when stored in ambient conditions, without requiring preservatives or cooling energy.
Yes. Our NOP and EU Organic certified tomato pastes are produced without synthetic processing aids, chemical additives, or GMOs. The only ingredient is 100% natural processing tomatoes, meeting clean label requirements for global food products.
Our standard MOQ for industrial bulk delivery is 1x20ft FCL container. A typical 20ft container accommodates approximately 80 steel drums (220L capacity, aseptic bags inside, 4 drums secured per wooden pallet), totaling roughly 19-20 metric tons of product net weight.
