Strengthening its commitment to food and beverage companies, BASF, Florham Park, NJ, has established a new Nutrition Ingredients Innovation Laboratory at its technical center in Tarrytown, NY. BASF closed its existing laboratory in Ledgewood, NJ, in March this year. The new laboratory will be part of the 160,000 square-foot laboratory and office space acquired by BASF in its Ciba acquisition. The technical service staff will be doubled and will focus on product improvements for customers. The new laboratory will bring together BASF’s comprehensive technical capabilities for the food and beverage industry. It will support nutrition and coloration applications in vitamin-enhanced waters, carbonated soft drinks, still beverages, dairy products, instant beverages, nutrition bars and baked goods.
