Blue Band

Blue Band is a legacy brand that stands for quality and nutrition to help the growth of Indonesian kids. As a multifunction margarine, Blue Band adds nutrients to your daily food because it contains 6 vitamins. In 2010, we launched Blue Band Gold with twice essential fatty acid (omega 3 & 6)* and 9 vitamins to help children’s growth. Essential fatty acids omega3 & omega 6 are important fats that cannot be produced by our body and therefore it needs to be consumed. Essential fats are needed for growth and development because they play an important role in cell function. They also have positive impact on cardiovascular health.
