Valio's cheese range contains nearly 40 different varieties, the most popular of which is mild Valio Edam, followed by full-fat Valio Oltermanni, semi-hard Valio Polar, and Valio Emmental, also dubbed the king of cheeses.
Finns are proud of their tasty delicacy cheeses, such as the long matured Valio Black Label Emmental, Valio AURA blue cheese, and the fine Finnish full-fat cheese Valio Ritari.
The popularity of low fat cheeses such as Valio Polar 15 and ultra-light Valio Polar 5 has grown rapidly. Other increasingly popular product groups include easy-to-use grated and sliced cheeses. The cheese range is complemented by the functional Valio Gefilus® emmental-type low fat cheese slices and Valio organic edam.
