Tobacco Technology Inc. (TTI) has established an alliance with several tobacco industry suppliers to develop new technologies for the application of flavors in tobacco products and/or tobacco product components and packaging. The goal of the cooperation is to respond quickly and creatively to changing industry requirements and new challenges such as contamination of machinery and goods that can occur during primary processing. Because virtually any tobacco product can be flavored, TTI believes its alliance also creates new product development opportunities. The alliance other core members are SPI Developments, a machinery company involved in fluid control and automation systems; Titan Adhesives; and Southlake Corp.; the North American distributors for SPI Developments. In addition to this core group, the alliance will work with on a project basis with select companies. Enditem
