Wheat-based ingredients expert Loryma has opened the doors to its new test laboratory at its headquarters in Zwingenberg, near Frankfurt. New functional wheat-based components and applications are developed on-site, alongside the optimization of customer products and training sessions, according to a statement. After five months of construction, the core element is a professional test kitchen. Here, production and processes can be simulated on an industrial scale, and final product preparation demonstrated. In addition, the technical center includes two laboratories for innovative meat concepts, a bakery, a breading kitchen, and a seminar room.
Workshops or webinars can also be held in the technical center to demonstrate to manufacturers the various application possibilities of wheat ingredients, and their ease of processing for optimal product concepts. Loryma also offers customers the joint development of tailor-made solutions in its role as a service partner.
“The diverse raw material inspires us to constantly develop new processing possibilities and applications in response to market trends,” Norbert Klein, head of Product Development at Loryma said. “We have selected the modern equipment in the technical center in order to closely replicate large-scale production, thus enabling an uncomplicated scale-up. As product developers, we now have the ideal prerequisites to pick up on new future-oriented trends and implement an uncomplicated and cost-effective manufacturing process with our customers.”
