From making more with your unavoidable waste to developing and improving ingredients for better product performance, we have the technical expertise, open-access laboratory facilities and desk-based support to help you develop your food and drink (including animal food) products and processes.
We know that great things can come when businesses look to science to solve some of their biggest challenges. The work carried out by the BDC helped us to achieve our two main goals – making the highest quality spirits in the most sustainable way. Not only does our brown bottle protect the delicate flavour of our vodka, but it also incorporates more recycled content than clear glass could. We will certainly continue to work with the BDC as we strive to create a more circular business model. Tabatha Hurst, Head of Sustainability at Ellers Farm Distillery
