The development of Lifecycle360 TM is just one way Crown continually raises the bar for technological advancement and customer experience. The company has recently made major investments in its new Global Innovation Center( GIC)- a unique, cuttingedge facility that brings the piloting, testing, and commercialization of new products together under one roof.
As Tim enthuses:“ The GIC entails a 15,000 square foot pilot plant, lab, and training center that offers real-world testing capabilities in a safe and controlled environment. It features solid and liquid extraction, desolventization, drying and refining technologies, as well as an analytical lab and training center.
“ Our technology is leading-edge, and this new facility really sets the standard for new innovations within the industry. Not only does it provide our customers with access to real-world testing capabilities, but it does so in a controlled, confidential and low-risk environment.
“ At the GIC, our engineering and R & D teams work with existing and potential customers to develop and test new ideas. Our specialist equipment and extensive in-house expertise enable us to bring products to market faster, and with optimal operational efficiency.”
It’ s been an exciting time for CPM | Crown. From the establishment of its Innovation
Center a few years ago to the industry-defining launch of Lifecycle360 TM, the company is set for ongoing success. Kris considers what’ s next for the business:“ As we look to the future, our vision is to be a trusted, long-term partner for our customers as they navigate the growing challenge of internal talent loss. We aim to be well-positioned to support their evolving needs by helping them drive greater efficiency, cost control, and operational sustainability.
“ A key part of this vision is continuing to expand the Lifecycle360 TM suite. We plan to build on the strong foundation of services already in place by introducing new pillars that further empower our customers to create resilient, future-ready operations.
“ In parallel, we’ re committed to advancing processing technologies that not only improve efficiency but also enhance environmental stewardship, consumer safety, and operational integrity. These innovations will play a critical role in helping our customers meet the demands of a rapidly changing market, while maintaining high standards of performance and responsibility,” he concludes. ■
