FrieslandCampina Ingredients is returning to Vitafoods Europe 2025 (20-22 May) in Barcelona, Spain, to showcase its application expertise and inspire innovative supplement development in the adult and kids’ nutrition markets. At stand #3J109, the company will unveil its latest applications including Biotis® Lactoferrin chewables, fastmelts and functional drinks for beauty from within formulations. Additional novel dietary supplement format innovations designed to enhance efficacy, convenience and consumer experience will also be on show.
Skin care remains the beauty industry’s largest category, accounting for 44% of the market. But today’s consumers want more than just surface-level solutions. At Vitafoods Europe, FrieslandCampina Ingredients will showcase how Biotis® Lactoferrin helps brands tap into the skin barrier opportunity with innovative applications that offer antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits and stimulate skin regeneration.
Continuing to showcase its application capabilities, FrieslandCampina Ingredients will spotlight its Step Up Nutrition portfolio of cross-category solutions for kids aged 3 years and older. Step Up Nutrition is designed to support the top parental concerns: growth and development, immune function, cognitive function, mental health and gut health. FrieslandCampina Ingredients’ portfolio is suitable for a range of applications – from gummies to functional drinks – creating opportunities for brands to tap into the kid’s nutrition market with trending convenient formats. For instance, fun and colourful GOS-enriched gummies provide support for mineral absorption and gut health, helping kids to grow healthily while encouraging repeat usage.
The company will also showcase its renowned ingredients for dietary supplements. Biotis® DHA Flex Powder is an algae-derived omega-3 solution with a neutral sensory profile and exceptional stability and solubility, offering freedom of versatility in formulation options, including fastmelts for cognitive support. Additionally, Biotis® GOS-OP High Purity, a highly concentrated galacto-oligosaccharide (GOS), is driving formulation innovation in the prebiotics space. Biotis® GOS-OP High Purity delivers a typical GOS content of 94% – significantly higher than the typical range for other prebiotics currently available which enables its efficacy at doses as low as 2 grams, making it easier for brands to formulate effective supplements in popular formats, including gummies.
In addition to its Biotis® range, the company will also highlight its portfolio of whey, caseinate and plant-based proteins – crafted to help brands meet the surging demand for high-quality protein solutions, including the growing interest in satiety-supporting GLP-1 companion products.
To explore how to differentiate with science-backed dietary supplement solutions that provide on-the-go support, join Sophie Zillinger Molenaar, Global Marketing Lead, Biotis® as she dives into the latest supplement format trends in her talk; ‘Innovation without compromise: standing out in a sea of supplements’, which will take place on 21 May, 4-4:25pm CEST at the New Ingredients Theatre.
