This investment will also improve environmental performance and enhance our ability to tailor products to customer needs.
Ohly’s strong growth has been driven by our product-led commercial teams, who have developed deeper insights into both their sectors and customers’ needs in key markets such as food, health and nutrition, animal health, and bionutrients.
We have invested in a state-of-the-art drying tower which, once complete, will enable us to dry a significant proportion of our yeast extract products on-site, reducing the distance our products have to travel during processing. This new equipment will also reduce the amount of electricity and water used during the drying process by 10%, enhancing our efficiency and improving our environmental footprint.
We have also invested in a new on-site fermentation facility. This cutting-edge system has been designed specifically for the manufacture of our products and will increase production capacity by 50%. The investment should also enable us to run our fermentation process using approximately 40% less water, 30% less natural gas and 25% less electricity.
These two investments will enable us to meet customer demand, which has nearly doubled over the last seven years. It will also provide us with the capability to tailor our products to these markets, as well as the potential for further innovation.
