Section overview
Description
The Institute of Food and Environmental Research (ILU) was established in 1991. As a non-profit organization, it conducts applied, technology-oriented research and development for the food and the preservation of the environment. The association pursues exclusively and directly non-profit goals. Members of the association are small and medium companies in the food industry, the tangential fields and enterprises of non-university research. Association, the Institute of Food and Environmental has 10 permanent employees, the skills of food technologists, chemists and food chemists, biologists, microbiologists and biochemists and combine many years of experience in the biotechnology, food and environmental disposal. Other employees are project-tied. The club has access to modern equipped laboratories and pilot plants. Research for technological application performance testing facilities are available or will be used in co-operation partners. The charitable organization claimed for itself the ambition to contribute to his research into marketable solutions especially for small and medium enterprises. Thus the innovation and competitiveness in the medium-sized food industry is to be stabilized and strengthened.
