Sales success prompts electrostatic expansion plan
A major increase in the take-up of electrostatics by the food manufacturing sector has sparked UK expansion plans for Oxfordshire-based Spice Application Systems (SAS).
The company, which uses the latest electrostatic technology to apply flavourings and coatings to a wide range of foodstuffs, has just relocated to larger new premises and launched a dedicated demonstration area, aimed primarily at overseas customers.
Peter King, managing director, said: “This is an extremely exciting and busy time for us. The ability of electrostatics to deliver real energy efficiency has hit a chord with food manufacturers as they realise they can save money and time as well as improving product quality.
“This move enables us to have all our manufacturing, sales, workshop and storage areas under one roof and have a demonstration area for visitors, which is especially important for those who come from overseas and want to see the equipment in action before they invest.
