Curion Insights Expands Deerfield Facility, Adding Six Lifestyle Suites and 50% More Testing Capacity

Curion Insights expanded its Deerfield facility, increasing onsite testing capacity by 50% and adding six lifestyle suites, the company said. The grand reopening took place on October 21, 2026, according to EIN Presswire. Curion Insights provides quantitative and qualitative product testing and consumer insights services to more than 200 global consumer packaged goods brands.

Inside the Deerfield Renovation

The renovated Deerfield site includes a fully renovated focus group environment with dedicated client viewing capabilities, the company said. A flexible multi-purpose research space is designed to accommodate focus groups, classroom-style taste tests and other projects requiring adaptable room configurations. The six new lifestyle suites feature air-purging capabilities, a dishwasher, sink and mirror, and stackable washer and dryer units, supporting lifestyle, in-home and product-use research. The expansion also adds 2,500 square feet of storage space for additional logistical support.

"We built this expansion around our clients and the evolving needs of research," said Steve Jungmann, CEO at Curion. "From expanded working kitchen space to flexible new research environments and our Lifestyle Suites, every addition gives our clients more options for how they engage with respondents and how respondents experience their products."

Curion Insights' Scale and Recent Moves

Curion Insights operates six U.S. Consumer Centers and a UK operation, according to akta.pro company records. The same records list 200 or more brands across global consumer packaged goods and more than 500 million product data points used for Curion Score benchmarking. In January 2026, Curion Insights acquired UK-based Blue Yonder Research, creating a transatlantic product insight business that combines Curion's sensory science with Blue Yonder's research and development and innovation testing capabilities.
