Overview

By leveraging over 60 pilot-scale food processing technologies - ranging from traditional to cutting-edge methods - we quantify energy use, emissions, and resource efficiency. These insights enable companies to fine-tune ingredients, processing conditions, and operational settings to minimise their environmental impact while maintaining product quality and efficiency.
