Global ingredient solutions provider makes a big move in a short distance
Netherlands-based CSM NV’s Corbion America Inc. broke ground June 21 on a new, 58,000 square-foot complex incorporating expanded regional headquarters and state-of-the-art lab facilities. The new facility is located in Lenexa, Kan., just down the street from the company’s current—but outgrown— campus. On hand was Corbion CEO, Tjerk de Ruiter, who noted the new complex will “help fuel the company’s continued growth as a global supplier of ingredient solutions to the world’s foremost food manufacturers.” Expected completion date is August, 2018.
The upgrade is designed to enhance Corbion’s already strong research, development and application capabilities and support the company’s collaborative approach to useful innovation. Corbion scientists, marketers, and application experts will be better able to work closely with customers in the development of product concepts and respond to consumer needs and demands, keeping pace in a constantly evolving global marketplace.
