Reactive – waiting for the next enquiry
Little study of why and how products worked
Limited resources
Out of touch with market requirements
No real long term NPD / R&D plan or strategy
Many good ideas but lack of prioritisation and focus
Also true for other departments…☺

White paper published
Improved Bread Preservation
SorbicPlus Encapsulated Sorbic Acid
Sorbic Acid Crystals
Funding under I4G enabled development of a 30 year old idea
Recent developments in carbohydrates allowed new barrier development
Applications: Chocolate – burst release of flavour upon consumption
Biscuit cream – burst release of flavour on consumption
Chewing Gum – less flavouring lost into the gum base
Advantages include minimal odour but spectacular flavour release
Proving to be very effective in these and other applications
First order for pre-production tests received last week!
