Prinova Aromas, a division of the Nagase Group, has announced an investment in its New Jersey production site.

According to the company, Prinova aims to strengthen its "position as a global leader in flavour and fragrance ingredients".

The upgrade, which is two-years in the making, has streamlined logistics, improved essential oil processing and centralised global R&D, regulatory and quality functions with new state-of-the-art laboratories.

In addition, the investment reflects Prinova's commitment to delivering "best-in-class service," enhanced distribution efficiencies and innovative products.

Bill Palagonia, president of Prinova Aromas, said: “Our customers are the heart of our business, and this is all about enhancing the service that we’re able to offer them. They’ll benefit from world-leading technical capabilities, rigorous quality-control testing, improved distribution capacity and greater supply chain security. This is a truly global aromas HQ and we’re extremely proud of the work we’ve done together to build it.”

The facility became fully operational last month. Terms of the investment were not disclosed.
