Kalyx was the new name for UK Detention Services (UKDS). Sodexho, which fully owned UKDS at the time, renamed the company as Kalyx in 2006. Kalyx continued to run Harmondsworth IRC until 2009.
Sodexho said: “Kalyx is derived from the botanical term calyx, which is the whorl of leaves, or sepals, forming the protective covering of a flower bud. It is a symbolic representation of protection and care and it can also be associated with growth of the individual and strength – all attributes for which we are known and respected.” [1]
