Shanghai, China, 2 September 2014 – Tate Lyle PLC (“Tate Lyle”), a leading global provider of speciality food ingredients and solutions, today welcomed local dignitaries, customers, employees and other guests to a ceremony to celebrate the opening of its new polydextrose dietary fibre manufacturing facility in Nantong, Jiangsu Province, China.

On 13 March 2014, Tate Lyle announced it had signed an agreement to acquire the business and assets of Winway Biotechnology Nantong Co. Ltd, a leading producer of polydextrose fibre, subject to governmental approval. This transaction was completed on 1 August 2014. Tate Lyle will be investing in the Nantong facility over the next two years to expand capacity and enhance its speciality fibre product offering. Nantong becomes Tate Lyle’s third polydextrose facility globally, in addition to existing lines in the Netherlands and the US.

Leo Liu, General Manager, Greater China for Tate Lyle’s Speciality Food Ingredients business said: “The acquisition of Winway and the establishment of a polydextrose manufacturing facility in China provides Tate Lyle with an excellent platform from which to accelerate the growth of its specialty fibres business in Asia Pacific and to expand its Health and Wellness offering globally. We are delighted to welcome so many honoured guests to Nantong to celebrate this exciting next step in Tate Lyle’s expansion of speciality food ingredients and solutions in China”.

Polydextrose is a premium, low calorie bulking agent and dietary fibre. It plays a key role in replacing the technical functionality of sugar, providing bulk, body, texture and mouthfeel in reduced calorie, no-added-sugar and/or high fibre foods. A soluble dietary fibre with prebiotic properties, polydextrose helps support gastrointestinal health, is very well tolerated, has a low glycemic/blood glucose response, and is clean tasting and easy to use.

Polydextrose is one of Tate Lyle’s growing range of speciality fibres which includes PROMITOR^® Soluble Corn Fibre, PROMITOR^® Soluble Gluco Fibre and PromOat^® Beta Glucan.

2014 年 3 月 13 日，Tate Lyle 宣布公司在政府许可下签署了一项协议，收购聚葡萄糖纤维的领先制造商博程生物科技（南通）有限公司的业务及其资产。此项交易已于 2014 年 8 月 1 日全部完成。Tate Lyle 将在此后的两年里投资南通生产企业，以扩大生产力并提高专业纤维生产供应能力。南通将成为 Tate Lyle 的全球第三个聚葡萄糖生产基地，现有的两条生产线位于荷兰和美国。

Tate Lyle 专业食品配料业务部门中国大区总经理 Leo Liu 说道：“在中国收购博程并建立聚葡萄糖生产企业为 Tate Lyle 提供了极佳的发展平台，这一方面加快了公司在亚太地区专业纤维业务的增长，另一方面扩大了全球范围内健康和保健产品的供应。我们热烈欢迎各位尊敬的来宾来到南通，共同庆祝 Tate Lyle 在中国扩大专业食品配料业务和完善解决方案方面迈出激动人心的一步。”

聚葡萄糖是一种优质、低卡路里的填充剂和膳食纤维。聚葡萄糖在替代糖的技术功能上起着关键性作用，能改善低卡路里、无糖和/或高纤维食物的质地、外形和口感。聚葡萄糖是具有益生元特性的可溶性膳食纤维，有助于维持肠胃健康，并具备良好的耐受性，能降低血糖/血液葡萄糖反应，且口感清爽、易于使用。

聚葡萄糖是 Tate Lyle 重点发展的专业纤维之一，包括 PROMITOR^® 可溶性玉米纤维、PROMITOR^® 可溶性乳酸钙纤维和 PromOat^® Beta 葡聚糖。
