In November, the Swiss technology group Bühler opened its expanded innovation center for food in Uzwil. The new Food Creation Center is a central part of this hub. It offers an integrated perspective on product and process development for a wide variety of foods. Bühler teams support customers all the way from the idea phase through rapid prototyping and implementation in the industrial process, to validation and scale-up.

Whether it be fruit, protein, muesli and nut bars, wafers, cookies, chocolate, baked products, spreads or snacks, Bühler's Food Creation Center in Uzwil is a state-of-the-art facility for product testing, production trials, training, and education. Customers will find the ideal environment and the expertise to create different foods with new raw materials, flavors, and textures. The Food Creation Center receives ingredients and processed raw materials such as flour, chocolate mass, nuts, oats, sugar, alternative proteins, and fruit – some of which also come from the other application and training centers – for processing.
