DSM Points to Premixes in Supporting Future Growth of Dietary Supplement Market

08 Oct 2015 --- DSM highlights the advantages that its premier custom nutrient premix service brings in supporting open innovation and accelerated product development, at this year’s SupplySide West. With access to more than 1,400 ingredients, Fortitech Premixes delivers precise blends of the desired functional ingredients – vitamins, minerals, amino acids, nutraceuticals and botanicals – in one single, efficient, homogenous premix. Each batch is carefully tested and qualified and its team of scientists, regulatory and quality professionals is well positioned to support customers with traceability, market clearance and clinical substantiation of premix ingredients.

“We have a proven record in providing custom nutrient premixes for food and beverage applications and see a large opportunity for premixes to be more widely used in the dietary supplement industry,” comments Philippo De-Simone, Director of Dietary Supplement Sales at DSM. “Our one-stop service streamlines the production process, and saves manufacturers the time and operational costs associated with in-house quality management. For example, there is reduced expenditure on labor, inventory and testing and manufacturers can put plants to use for other requirements.”

Fortitech Premixes can differentiate products, by helping to target a variety of health conditions, lifestyles and age demographics as well as applications ranging from tablets and soft gels to gummies and soft chews. As a DSM customer, manufacturers and retailers benefit from technical, regulatory and marketing expertise that supports open innovation. In a highly competitive market, Fortitech Premixes delivers tailor-made formulations that accelerate product development and ultimately help drive sales.
