A technology pioneer since our beginnings, A. M. Todd continues to explore the frontiers of plant-based science. Our professional staff includes flavor chemists, product developers, biochemists, process chemists, biologists, analytical chemists, agronomists, botanists, soil scientists, and taxonomists—each dedicated to discovering optimal ways to bring the benefits of plants and plant products to people.
We offer research and development capabilities in:
- Extractions, including essential oils, flavors, and functional ingredients. Our extraction technology includes distillation, liquid-solid and liquid-liquid extraction, separation and isolation.
- Analytical chemistry, with a special emphasis on identifying and quantifying phytochemicals using state-of-the-art mass spectrometers, HPLC, GC, olfactory detectors, halimeters, and supercritical/subcritical extraction units.
- Our proprietary Green Plant Program, which provides a safe, reliable, and competitively priced source of strategic proprietary plants. A. M. Todd’s Green Plant Program also supplies supporting information to our alliance growers who produce the plant varieties.
- Product development from concept through commercialization. Our facilities include a pilot plant for creating innovative confections, oral care, and beverages; our professional staff includes experts in ingredients, formulation, functionality, and product stability.
