DSM Takes Local Approach to Flavour Finishing
The unique method of supply means that flavourists can confidently build their specific tastes and flavours whenever the market demands, safe in the knowledge that DSM Food Specialties can effectively develop the exact flavour profile they require.
Sep 8 2010 --- Flavour and seasoning creators can now benefit from faster response times, customised flavour compounds and batch-to-batch consistency wherever they are in the world, thanks to DSM Food Specialties’ new local finishing approach for its process flavours. This unique method of supply means that flavourists can confidently build their specific tastes and flavours whenever the market demands, safe in the knowledge that DSM Food Specialties can effectively develop the exact flavour profile they require.
As a leading independent producer of process flavours, DSM Food Specialties is successfully able to respond to the changing demands of the international flavour industry. From its state-of-the-art production facility in Shanghai, the company manufactures its process flavours using its patented dynamic semi-continuous technology (DYSC). This has been proven to deliver high quality, consistent products with no batch variation. With its new and unique local finishing approach, DSM Food Specialties now ensures that all custom compounding and packaging is done regionally, in the US, EMEA and China, enabling the company to quicker and more accurately respond to the varying requirements of its customers, whatever their location.
Commenting on this exciting development, Coen van Oorschot, Business Industry Manager Process Flavours, DSM Food Specialties, said: “The adoption of local finishing is a unique approach in the global flavours and seasonings industry and one which is testament to the success and proven effectiveness of our market-leading technology. At DSM Food Specialties, we understand that our customers’ needs can change in the blink of an eye. Manufacturers are now keen to innovate, which has led to a sudden upsurge in demand for process flavours and, in the last few months, we have also seen an increased request for our natural products, sparked by the new EC Flavour Regulation. Moreover, DSM appreciates the importance of supplying flavour ingredients that offer the consistent and often customer specific profiles that our customers require to create authentic tastes. By switching to regional finishing, we can work much more closely with our customers to not only offer the specific flavour profiles they need, but also ensure that we rapidly respond to any variations in demand. This not only positions DSM Food Specialties as a pioneer in the international flavours and seasonings industry, but also allows our customers to create a key point of differentiation in the marketplace.”
Process flavours are high value building blocks for flavour compositions. These flavour compositions are used in culinary and savoury products such as soups, snacks and ready meals where they provide and enhance specific taste donation like roast chicken, white meats or boiled beef.
