Food & Drink
The Food & Drink industry has a widely integrated life-cycle with many aspects such as recipes, bulk manufacturing, packaging, distribution and shelf-life having to come together to satisfy consumer demand. These are often overlooked as involving R&D activities when more often than not, they do.
Food & drink manufacturers are often having to improve their products in various aspects by employing scientific principles, trials, research, and development.
Although seeming like run-of-the-mill standard practices, due to the evolving standards and regulations, as well as consumer demand, existing products are having to be constantly improved which means having to conduct R&D intensive activities to comply and achieve desired results.
Qualifying Activities
However, it doesn’t stop there. From food safety to new products, manufacturing adaptations to new packaging, there are an array of qualifying activities we can help you identify, such as:
- Developing new recipes and formulations, for example, reducing levels of fat or salt while still maintaining flavour and texture.
- Packaging improvements
- Clinical Trials
- Changes to nutritional values
- Shelf life improvements
Typical Claim
Food science projects vary greatly in size depending on the resources spent on them however claims of anything from £10,000 – £500,000+ for bigger manufacturers.
