Cargill unveils flavors plant upgrade

Cargill's flavor business has made a significant investment in the liquid flavor blending plant at its production facility in Grasse, France.

The redevelopment has resulted in increased efficiencies in production flow.

The newly-designed plant, which will be opened officially on 29 April, offers improved flexibility for customers, as well as ensuring consistent, high quality product delivery that has become synonymous with the Cargill brand.

The plant has been redesigned to enable component materials for each bespoke flavor to be collated in "one pass".

Production is made faster with new technology, which includes intelligent mobile recipe weighing stations, an automated dosing robot and paternoster system for compounders, means that production is now faster.

It also ensures that repeat flavor specifications are accurate and consistent every time.
