With Contract Research, the Institute is contracted by Client to carry out some research work in any area of clients’ interest which falls within our domain. A team of technical experts with expertise in the area of concern is constituted to carry out such research independent of the Client.

Sensory Evaluation. (Consumer Acceptability Test) deals with evaluation of products by panellists some of whom are trained prior to their assessing of these products.

This service handles novel ideas brought in by Client. Ideas brought on board by clients are experimented in the laboratory and findings developed further to meet clients’ expectations. Laboratory work on product development is preceded by an extensive discussion led by the Research Scientist in charge of the project. Having come to a compromise, work is carried out with the involvement of the client. Client makes a choice out of a number of outcomes from the initial experimentation. The chosen sample is developed further and Client is given comprehensive training on how the outcomes were arrived at.

With this service, products are developed based on Clients’ directives and scaled up for them.
