Mysuru, June 1(UNI) CSIR-Central Food Technological Research Institute (CFTRI), Mysuru signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Schevaran Laboratories Pvt Ltd, here for collaboratives towards the development of Personal hygiene, Cleaning & related Industrial products and solutions.
According to a press release here by CFTRI on Monday, during the post-COVID scenario, both the organisations have felt the need to have more efficient environment-friendly and cost-effective quality products in the market and the partnership would be highly beneficial in meeting the emerging challenges.
During the lockdown period, CSIR-CFTRI delivered over 30 tonnes of RTE food supplements and flavoured water to the migrant workers across the country in mitigating the sufferings of the people.
Further, Hand Sanitizers prepared in the lab as per WHO guidelines were distributed to District Administration and others. The Institute is also planning innovative solutions to promote Rural Entrepreneurship with the involvement of FPOs, NGOs, Women Self Groups and to address reverse migration to the countryside. Though the primary focus will be supporting sustainable food enterprises, the Institute is also exploring the potential of quality disinfectants and affordable sanitizers based on plant extracts for employment generation.
Speaking on the occasion, CSIR-CFTRI, Director Dr Raghavarao said that CFTRI would be keen to involve Industry from the early stages of product development while fulfilling the customer’s aspiration and Industrial viability. Co-branding is one of the promising routes for successful commercialisation of innovation directly from the lab to market.
Schevaran Labs, MD Sam Cherian in his remarks commented that partnership with the National Laboratory would help to build a robust platform to promote innovations and enable the diverse industry sectors towards achieving cleaning & hygiene in its true form. In reality, the impact will be more in the food industry sector that would usher in better hygienic standards through customised formulations.
