The Solution
AAK entered into a Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) programme with the University of Hull. This saw nanotechnology specialist Dr BaiJia Tang join the company fresh from completing his PhD in Materials Science. His expertise – coupled with access to our cutting-edge research labs – has given AAK the extra scientific muscle it needs to achieve its goals.
The Result
AAK has developed deeper scientific insight into the physical properties of its edible vegetable oils allowing it to offer enhanced products to its clients.
This in turn has meant greater profits, allowing the company to plan further multi-million pound investments in its local manufacturing site.
