In the ever-evolving food industry, challenges are as constant as change itself. Producers must remain agile, adapting quickly to emerging trends and consumer demands to stay competitive, one example is the most recent rise of the cocoa price. Flexibility in developing and adjusting products and recipes is key to capturing market interest and ensuring product relevance.
At our Application Centers, we are specialized in supporting our customers through these processes. We provide expert support in developing and adapting products and recipes that not only meet current trends but also anticipate future demands. Together we can leverage our cutting-edge technology and deep industry knowledge to create products that excel in a competitive landscape. Let us help you turn industry challenges into opportunities for innovation and sustainable growth.
Our Application Centers foster innovation through a dynamic process starting with a Creativity Workshop, progressing to an Ideation Session for refining ideas, and culminating in Rapid Prototyping. This efficient workflow swiftly transforms creative concepts into tangible prototypes, ensuring rapid delivery of market-ready solutions.
Our development process begins by defining the consumer product to ensure clarity of vision. This is followed by a thorough analysis of raw materials to identify the best inputs. We conduct trials where customers can participate both onsite or remotely, to test concepts directly with customers, ensuring real-world feedback and alignment. Next, we evaluate samples to refine our approach, and finally, we define the production process, optimizing every aspect for scalability and efficiency. In addition, the whole process can be optimized by our targeted services such as the Performance Assessment Workshop to identify areas for improvement or troubleshooting on site to resolve challenges and maintain operational continuity. This comprehensive method guarantees that our solutions meet both our high standards and customer expectations.
In addition to the product and process optimization competence our Application Centers offer a range of analytical services to ensure product quality and process optimization. We conduct Analytics from raw material via intermediate products to final product properties, to assess key properties impacting product performance. Cream Rheology is analyzed to understand flow behavior and stability. Water Activity measurements are crucial for determining product shelf life and safety. Lastly, Texture Analysis provides critical insights into the physical characteristics of products, influencing consumer satisfaction and product consistency. These services collectively support the development of superior products.
