The independent company on Tuesday announced the opening of its new custom fermentation facility in Franksville, Wisconsin. The 80,000-square-foot facility will support the growing food, beverage, health and nutrition markets.
CSL USA will have access to strains and technologies developed by Sacco System of Milan, Italy.
