Ingredients & Flavours
Cost-effective, end-to-end solutions for ingredients and flavour manufacturing lines.
We offer a full suite of turnkey project management and production line factory design and build services to manufacturers of food additives, ingredients, spices and flavourings.
Independent Expert Project Management
Our in-house team of engineers have a detailed understanding of the unique challenges faced by this sector, including the drive to reduce headcount through automation of services, the import/export uncertainty caused by Brexit, and the importance of good cleaning and maintenance provisions.
We are proud to operate independently and are not tied to any particular equipment supplier. Instead, we use our technical expertise and experience to validate the designs and equipment put forward by various suppliers to ensure we choose the best solution for your project.
Changing consumer tastes, frequent regulatory changes and product innovations mean a highly-competitive and ever-changing sector. Our specialist team can help with:
- Production line rationalisation
- Factory builds and extensions
- Recipe manufacturing scale-up
- Free-from and clean-label environments
- Post-Brexit changes to production processes
