About Ajinomoto Cec Centre d'engagement client

Ajinomoto CEC est un centre d'engagement client aménagé au sein d'une nouvelle usine située dans le Bandar Enstek Halal Hub, à Negeri Sembilan, en Malaisie. L'intérieur s'ouvre sur un vaste mur vidéo LED qui accueille employés et visiteurs avant leur entrée dans l'Infoseum. Un tunnel guide ensuite les visiteurs à travers l'histoire de l'entreprise, ses services et ses produits. Le mapping vidéo et un système sonore accompagnent la visite, tandis qu'un studio culinaire propose des sessions interactives autour du goût. Les lignes épurées et linéaires évoquent le mouvement de la canne à sucre dans le vent.
