We have an 800 square metre Research & Development facility, purpose built, so that we have a design capability, a general office, a laboratory, processing facilities for chocolate manufacturing, caramel manufacturing and for small batch production such as one shot moulding, multiple moulding, shell moulding, enrobing and bar forming.


The facility also has a storage area and a small engineering facility for prototype building. This facility can handle up to 8 students at any one time from any of our customers in 138 countries worldwide. This facility has been used for tests recently by customers from South Africa, India, Russia, UK, Germany, America and South America. We expect the facility to be used extensively by our clients worldwide in the future.
