Lipton
required the consolidation of its facilities and food groups involved in the
development of tomato based products. This new facility includes the
agricultural field group from Stockton, plant genetic laboratories from UC
Davis, and the tomato and sauce groups from Shelton, CT. The 25,866 square
foot facility provides technical laboratory and administrative spaces in
concert with a pilot plant to test developed products.
The
design, developed in association with Don Hisaka, FAIA, of Hisaka &
Associates of Berkeley, CA, permits ready expansion along main utility service
corridors with careful consideration for flexibility in the use of the
designed spaces due to seasonal demands.
As
an international facility supporting their world-wide operations, it was
important that the facility could readily accommodate visitors and present a
modern and innovative impression on the users.
