R&D

Through the analysis of our raw materials, the laboratory elaborates new formulations according to customers needs and continuously improves the existing ones. At present, new products are undergoing the last tests before receiving the final approvals in order to be commercialized.

Caragum is not a raw material producer. When you receive a stabilizer system recommendation, you can be sure that it is based on achieving the best possible functionality. In addition, where regulation and your company policy restricts the use of certain raw materials; Caragum has the experience and is able to use alternative systems or ingredients with little or no trade off in terms of quality.

New raw materials are constantly being analysed in our laboratory in Marseilles. Our research team evaluates how this new knowledge might best be applied to customers needs; whether they are improved texture, viscosity, cost saving or innovation on a product or process level.

Reasons for new product development are varied but generally they can encompass :

• The will to innovate
• Extensions to existing successful product lines
• Changes in customers' tastes and requests
• The need to replace raw materials due to inappropriate consumption or regulatory response
• Market competition

All development is carried out on a totally confidential basis with our customers. Our R&D staff is experienced, friendly and understands the need to work with the customer’s R&D department. All research is based on the customer's own market and executed in a fast and efficient manner.
