Nutraceuticals 2024 took place on March 6 and 7, and TRADES participated as an exhibitor, accompanied by three of its clients in the health sector: Abyss Ingredients, Alesco, and Biotis.
These events were a great help in strengthening our ties and discovering new opportunities. In addition, the trade show was the venue chosen to announce the 50th anniversary of Trades and the Durania Group—a wonderful occasion to celebrate with friends, partners, and customers. This demonstrates that, after five decades of hard work, dedication, and passion for the food industry, our efforts have enabled us to successfully reach this milestone.
Nutraceuticals Europe Summit & Expo, the trade show focused on novel foods, functional ingredients, and finished products, attracted 21% more visitors than last year.
Consumers in Spain are showing a growing interest in functional and healthy food. Products enriched with vitamins and minerals, as well as foods rich in protein or with digestive, immune and cognitive health benefits, are gaining popularity.
The food industry is responding by launching new products and reformulating existing products to include functional ingredients.
PRESENTING NUTRY & HEALTH SOLUTIONS AT THE SEMINAR THEATER
On March 7, the Seminar Theatre took place—an educational forum where experts explore trends in nutraceuticals for 2024. Our client companies had the opportunity to present their most innovative solutions in detail:
ABYSS INGREDIENTS
Claire Le Grand, Sales & Marketing Manager at Abyss Ingredients, presented Dermatidyss®, an innovative holistic solution based on the concept of dermaceuticals, which combines nutrition and dermocosmetics. Its goal is to help soothe the mind and skin, especially in people with atopic skin
ALESCO
Francesco Agostino Casamenti, Alesco's Sales Manager, dynamically explained the patented Sucrosomial® technology, a unique technology on the market that allows a greater and better absorption of minerals and vitamins.
BIOTIS
Sergi Croce, from Biotis (FrieslandCampina Ingredients), presented the new Biotis® Fermentis. This innovative, protein-rich fermented solution helps improve the relationship between gut health and physical performance, both in professional athletes and in people who exercise regularly.
PREMIUM SUBSTANCES NUTRACEUTICALS 2024 EXHIBITION SPACE
During this event, our represented companies also had the opportunity to present some of their products in "Premium Substances", a space where brands can exhibit their most relevant or innovative solutions:
Abyss Ingredients was able to showcase its new holistic solution Dermatidyss®, based on its new concept of dermaceuticals, which helps soothe the skin and the mind.
Alesco introduced its Sucrosomial® UltraMag® Magnesium, a magnesium oxide enhanced with Sucrosomial® technology to exceed the low oxide absorption limit.
FrieslandCampina showcased Biotis® Fermentis, its new protein-rich fermented solution for optimizing the relationship between performance and intestinal health in athletes.
In addition, we are also showcasing Plantaris™ Pea Isolate A and Plantaris™ Faba Isolate 90 here. This product line addresses some of the key challenges associated with plant-based proteins. One of these is the distinctive taste of pea protein, which many consumers find unappealing.
We share the video summary of the event:
Nutraceuticals 2024 confirmed the key role of innovation in functional ingredients. At TRADES, we will continue to bring these trends to our clients to turn them into new opportunities for development and innovation.
