GNT UK expands

GNT has expanded the facilities at its location in Derby, England.

“We are proud to officially open our newly expanded offices and application facilities with our experienced and dedicated team,” said Paul Collins, Managing Director of GNT UK. “From here we serve not only the UK but also clients in locations including Scandinavia, Eastern Europe, India and Israel.”

This is another important investment by GNT to offer its clients worldwide even more extensive, in-depth support, the company said – from the creation of the recipe through to the finished product.

“The new premises provide us with greater capacity to handle a wider diversity of projects than ever before, thus serving the growing number of food and beverage manufacturers switching to Colouring Foods”, said Collins. “Even though our natural colour solutions are simple and uncomplicated to handle, each product has its own challenges. Our application experts assist during the entire product development process and offer customised solutions, whenever necessary, fulfilling the increasingly specific requirements of our clients.”

The new 750m2 facility houses various application and analytical laboratories, development kitchens as well as offices for the growing team. High specification equipment now permits GNT UK to offer further local support across a diverse range of food and drink categories including panning drums for coated confectionery and a wet area dedicated to beverage development. Accelerated storage equipment assists with shelf life evaluations and the assessment of colour performance. Additionally, the creation of a Customer Experience Room – a bespoke facility for workshops and projects – allows clients to gain first-hand insights, interact with and experience colouring foods.
