Looking back at the carbon dioxide shortage in the summer of 2018; Blended were approached by a number of major players in the food and drinks industry and challenged to bridge the gap in supply. The issue was created by a combination of planned manufacturing shutdowns and equipment failures. Blended did indeed rise to the challenge; sourcing and supplying hundreds of tonnes of carbon dioxide to keep customers in operation until supplies returned to normal.
Iain Davey, Technical Operations Manager explains how we work at Blended:
