The expansion is the result of an €8m investment in line with the highest technological and food safety standards.
The R&D Centre now features a state-of-the-art pilot plant, adding 5,000 square metres of innovation space where Cargill’s 145 scientists and technologists can develop new ingredients, perfect reformulations and test new manufacturing processes.
“Food safety is one of our most important goals at Cargill,” said Marijana Petrovic, Cargill’s R&D Centre food safety leader. “This is why we implemented the zoning model in our new pilot plant, to not only meet today’s standards in food safety, but also to anticipate future needs.
“The prevention of contamination is a fast-moving discipline, and Cargill wants to be at the forefront in this field so that we can provide safe food every time, everywhere. This includes the products produced in our research and development facilities, and product samples provided to our customers.”
