Rousselot, Darling Ingredients’ collagen and gelatin brand, will be showcasing its science-backed portfolio of collagen and gelatin solutions at Vitafoods Europe in Geneva, Switzerland on May 14-16, 2024.
The company will highlight three new clinical studies that support new benefits concerning its PEPTAN collagen peptide brand.
These studies have shown Peptan’s ability to improve sleep quality[1], reduce gastrointestinal discomfort[2] and enhance skin density, hydration and elasticity.[3]
Florencia Moreno Torres, Rousselot Global Business Development Manager Health & Nutrition, will present: “Collagen peptides: The ultimate beauty from within ingredient plus a holistic well-being twist,” at 2:30 p.m. CET on May 15 at the New Ingredients Theatre.
Rousselot will also highlight its new discovery in active collagen peptides that is believed to provide targeted health benefits through its proprietary process.
Visitors can learn more from Elke de Clerck, Rousselot Global Science & Innovation Director, during the session: “Breaking the collagen code: Discover the future of targeted peptides,” 11:30 a.m. CET on May 15 at the New Ingredients Theatre.
Visitors to the booth will be able to learn about PEPTINEX, a source of collagen for supplements and functional foods, PROTAKE, for collagen and/or protein enrichment in food and beverage products and COLARTIX, a unique hydrolysed cartilage matrix which has been shown to support decreased joint discomfort at a low dosage regardless of gender, age and sport intensity.[4]
