At Fi Europe 2024, GELITA will show how its gelatin and collagen peptide solutions can
elevate bars, gummies, supplements, and more. The collagen innovator will demonstrate
multiple ways in which its tailored ingredients can help manufacturers raise the bar in
food and supplement production, from increasing protein content and reducing sugar
levels, to adding scientifically proven health functionality. A 60% protein bar made with
OPTIBAR®, fibre-rich gummies formulated with SOLUFORM® and beauty-from-within
gummies including our VERISOL® HST and CONFIXX® will be among the innovative
concepts presented on booth H3.1 F50.
Oliver Wolf, Marketing at GELITA, says: “We are constantly looking for ways of leveraging
our collagen expertise to help our customers take their products to the next level. At Fi
Europe we want to showcase some of the solutions we have conceived, which is why we
have designed our booth around the theme of ‘making it better’. We are extremely excited
to show visitors how they can go above and beyond what is thought to be possible with bars,
gummies and supplements, not only from a nutritional and sensorial perspective, but also in
terms of efficacy and production efficiency.”
Better bars with OPTIBAR®
OPTIBAR® is a collagen peptide that can help manufacturers formulate bars that meet the
demands of increasingly health-conscious consumers. In nutrition bars, balancing a high
protein content with a desirable taste and texture is difficult. OPTIBAR® enables more
protein to be incorporated into bars – a protein content of up to 65 percent is possible whilst
maintaining a soft and indulgent texture. OPTIBAR® can also act as a sugar-free binding
system in cereal bars, allowing manufacturers to simultaneously raise the protein content
and lower the sugar content.Better gummies with SOLUFORM® and CONFIXX®
SOLUFORM® is GELITA’s next generation gelatin for optimizing the nutritional profile of
confectionery products, including gummies, hard-boiled sweets, marshmallows and chewy
candies. SOLUFORM® PE can increase the protein content, whilst SOLUFORM® SR enables
the production of reduced sugar and sugar-free candy without compromising on taste and
texture. CONFIXX® is a fast-setting gelatin that represents a breakthrough in fortified gummy
production. This new gelatin enables the starch-free production of gummies with a sensorial
profile that has previously only been attainable with a starch-based manufacturing process.
Better supplements with Bioactive Collagen Peptides
Manufacturers looking for science-backed ingredients for sports nutrition and functional
health products need look no further than GELITA’s Bioactive Collagen Peptides (BCP®). Each
BCP® ingredient is customized to target a specific part of the body, including skin, joints,
bones, ligaments, tendons and muscles. VERISOL®, for example, has been developed to
deliver the highest levels of efficacy in human skin. Its positive effects on skin metabolism
have been proven in a number of clinical human trials and the ingredient is currently proving
popular for beauty-from-within concepts. Visitors will be able to sample tea and mocktails
fortified with VERISOL®, as well as gummies formulated with VERISOL® HST – a solution
specifically designed for collagen-rich gummies.
Better ingredient delivery: controlled release softgel gelatins
Recognizing that one size definitely doesn’t fit all when it comes to gelatins for softgel
capsule production, GELITA has developed a portfolio of tailored gelatins that have different
fill release profiles and address specific challenges. RAPISOL® is a fast release solution,
whereas DELASOL® offers delayed release, important for ensuring the efficacy of active
ingredients such as omega-3 oil, krill oil, essential oils and probiotics. The RXL® portfoliotackles the issue of crosslinking, improving stability over an extended shelf life, and
EASYSEAL® is a new solution that enhances process efficiency by reducing leakage.
