YCT takes great care over its investment in facilities, always balancing the level of investment, the return on investment but also the hidden benefits and value added gains from an investment.

With this approach, we can take a longer term view of our capital expenditure allowing development of new approaches throughout our operations.

A good example of this is our partnership with academic and 3rd party QC bodies while at the same time developing our in-house analytical facilities and skills.

It might seem like doubling up on expenditure - but the additional confidence it brings, the ongoing professional development of our personnel and widening of sources of ideas means we think it is money well spent.

Our aim with this approach is to confer our confidence in ourselves and our facilities to our customers, delivering safe, novel and beneficial products long into the future.
