These days we are at Institute of Food Technologists (IFT) FIRST 2026, and one thing stood out: innovation is becoming increasingly interconnected. Whether the conversation started with nutrition, taste, texture, affordability, or product differentiation, it quickly became clear that these challenges are no longer solved in isolation. Today's food and beverage manufacturers are expected to balance multiple priorities at once, while continuing to meet evolving consumer expectations. That's what made IFT FIRST such a valuable opportunity for dialogue. Throughout the event, our teams connected with customers, principals, and industry peers from across the value chain, exchanging perspectives on the trends shaping the future of food and beverage innovation. For Barentz, these conversations reinforce the importance of combining technical expertise, application development capabilities, and strong partnerships. Bringing innovative products to market is rarely about a single ingredient or technology; it is about connecting knowledge, insights, and capabilities to help solve increasingly complex challenges. A sincere thank you to everyone who spent time with our team in Chicago. We look forward to continuing the discussions and exploring new opportunities to innovate together.

Upcycled ingredients in Human Nutrition: unlocking new value! Driven by both formulation needs and sustainability goals, upcycling transforms agricultural side streams into valuable, functional ingredients. These ingredients contribute to a more circular food system and enable a more efficient use of resources. They open new possibilities for formulators, while aligning with growing expectations around responsible sourcing and resource efficiency. Examples in Barentz’ portfolio, such as citrus fibre and fibres derived from side streams of pea and soy protein production, show how these upcycled solutions are already being applied in practice.   For brands and manufacturers, this reflects a broader shift: ingredients are no longer evaluated on performance alone, but also on how they are sourced and processed. A trend that is set to play an increasingly important role in shaping innovation in Human Nutrition. #ConsumerTrends #SustainableFood #Upcycling #HumanNutrition #FoodIndustry
