Your internship will be focused on screening new approaches to increase knowledge and speed in our product development projects. It will include topics as in depth evaluation of ingredients and emulsions to learn more on the interaction between various raw materials and their influence on product performance (foaming/stabilization), and testing set-ups for emulsification experiments on lab scale. Translating your learnings to the specific needs of our customers and their final consumers will help our team in current and future product developments. Next to your own assignment you will have the opportunity to attend pilot plant trials at our production location and to contribute to other running R&D projects.
