The UK division of colour specialist the GNT Group is hoping to strengthen its position in the market by re-locating to a larger facility.

The UK operation is now based at a site near Derby encompassing a pilot plant and applications/development laboratory, as well as new offices.

Md Paul Collins says: "This investment demonstrates our commitment to further developing the UK market and other international markets served through our UK operation."

Other features of the new facility include accelerated light stability testing. To coincide with the relocation, two new members will be joining the team, both food scientists, with the objective of strengthening the application support and technical sales capability.

The GNT Group is a privately owned international company, which develops and manufactures natural colours for food and drink applications.
