ADM (NYSE: ADM) has celebrated the opening of its new Central Milling Laboratory at the ADM Specialty Manufacturing Facility in Decatur, Ill.
Equipped with advanced testing technologies and analytical tools, ADM’s Central Milling Laboratory receives wheat where it is milled, analyzed, and baked to provide the most accurate insights into how flour will perform in real-world applications. The lab bakes approximately 30 loaves of bread each day, enabling ADM to evaluate performance and ensure the company can procure the highest-quality wheat for customers.
Located near ADM’s North American Headquarters in Decatur, the facility enhances collaboration opportunities with ADM’s Research & Development and Creation, Design and Development facilities. Currently, the lab supports 31 ADM facilities across North America.
“We are very excited because this new lab shows our commitment to growing our quality testing capabilities and it serves as a continued investment in the Decatur community,” said Tedd Kruse, President, Milling & Baking Solutions at ADM. “This facility strengthens our ability to collaborate with customers to meet evolving market needs, and it will accelerate innovation across our milling network. The lab is a great example of ADM’s mission of unlocking the power of nature to enrich the quality of life.”
