Rousselot, stand 40H111, Food Ingredients Europe, Dec. 2–4, 2025, Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, Paris, France.
Rousselot, Darling Ingredients’ health brand, will return to Fi Europe with a showcase of its collagen and gelatin-based solutions for science-backed health and wellness. Designed to deliver proven health benefits and to enhance nutritional profiles — by reducing sugar, increasing protein, or achieving a clean label, Rousselot’s ingredients help brands create products that balance well-being and indulgence. Visitors will be able to experience these benefits firsthand through a variety of tasting concepts at the booth.
A highlight of the exhibit will be Nextida® GC, Rousselot’s latest collagen peptide innovation, clinically shown to support metabolic wellness by naturally stimulating GLP 1 and GIP secretion. Attendees will be invited to sample “Cosmopolitan” and “Vegas” mocktails, hazelnut macchiatos, and appetizer crackers featuring Nextida® GC.
Additional prototypes on-stand include Peptan®-powered drinks, functional gummies made with SiMoGel® technology, and a new low-sugar, high-fiber snack bar fortified with collagen protein. Each concept offers either proven functional benefits or improved nutritional profiles without compromising indulgence. Rousselot application experts will also present a recently published poster demonstrating the heat-stability of Peptan® collagen peptides in bakery and ultra-high-temperature (UHT) drink applications.
At the Exhibitor Showcase Theatre (40A104) on Wednesday, Dec. 3 at 2:30 p.m. CET, Florencia Moreno Torres, global marketing manager, and Tim de Lange, global applications center manager, will present “The GLP-1 effect: Shaping the next wave of nutritional innovation.” This expert session will explore opportunities for GLP-1 companion products, from nutritional support and glucose regulation to gut comfort and muscle preservation, offering attendees practical formulation insights and a deep dive into evolving consumer mindsets around metabolic wellness.
