ROUSSELOT SHOWCASES VERSATILE GELATIN AND COLLAGEN SOLUTIONS WITH INNOVATIVE PROTOTYPES AT VITAFOODS 2021

AgroFOOD Industry Hi Tech

Rousselot®, the global leader of collagen-based solutions, is pleased to welcome visitors to Vitafoods 2021, stand I114, to experience its latest collagen and gelatin-based innovations for the health and wellness markets.  

 

At this year’s event, Rousselot will spotlight its SiMoGel™ gelatin solution for groundbreaking center-filled fortified gummies for the nutraceutical and pharmaceutical sectors. These center-filled gummies – also known as ‘gummy caps’ – can offer a higher and more accurate dose of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) per serving than traditional gelatin fortified gummies. The SiMoGel starch-free production process removes the risk of API interaction between batches and comes with leading setting time of just 15 minutes. Gummies prototypes with zinc or Lipofer™ microcapsules (iron) or acacia honey, propolis extract and vitamin C will be available at the booth.  

 

Rousselot will also introduce its new Inner Strength campaign which spotlights its flagship bioactive collagen peptides, Peptan. Peptan has been shown to support joint and bone health*, to enhance hair and skin beauty*, and to help with sports recovery*.  Rousselot has recently launched Peptan Marine – a range of premium collagen peptides sourced from 100% wild-caught white fish and featuring full certification by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC). Samples at the booth include healthy nut-based ‘beauty balls”, a sports recovery drink, two Peptan Marine shots containing DSM premixes and a high protein snack bar fortified with ProTake™ hydrolyzed collagen. 

 

On the 6th October, 12:30, Florencia Moreno Torres, Rousselot’s market expert, will be hosting a free-to-attend presentation on ‘Collagen peptides, the hero ingredient for natural beauty from the inside out’ (New Ingredients Theatre). 

 

 

Convenience meets functional benefits: SiMoGel gelatin solution for fortified gummies 

Rousselot’s latest SiMoGel solution unlocks the potential of liquid-center functional gummies for the nutraceutical and pharmaceutical sectors. These center-filled soft gummies – also known as ‘gummy caps’ – can offer a higher and more accurate dose of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) per serving than traditional gelatin fortified gummies. The SiMoGel starch-free production process removes the risk of API interaction or cross contamination between batches and the industry-leading setting time of just 15 minutes will help manufacturers boost ROI with a faster product delivery rate. 

Visitors to Rousselot’s stand will experience several innovative SiMoGel application concepts, featuring ingredients such as zinc and Lipofer™ microcapsules (iron) for immunity support, ibuprofen for pain relief, and a combination of acacia honey, propolis extract and vitamin C to sooth sore throats.
