Our R&D and Customer Technical Services (CTS) teams are always working together to develop the newest innovative plant-based ingredients for food and nutrition products. 📣 We are proud to introduce the cream of the crop: NUTRALYS® Pea S854F pea protein isolate – a breakthrough ingredient that delivers an enhanced sensory experience in ready-to-mix formulations like protein shakes. Consumers can experience the creamy difference with this high-protein, smooth-textured ingredient that requires no thickener.    🤝🏼 This achievement was made possible through strong collaboration. Our R&D team worked closely with the CTS team to optimize the manufacturing process and ensure that the ingredient meets the expectations of the final consumer.    Our Head of R&D Americas, Jennifer Kimmel, says: "I want to thank my key technical collaborators, Torie Lange from Americas R&D, and Kevin Koval and Trisha Buchkowski from Americas CTS Food, for their outstanding contributions to this project. Of course, this was not a solo effort. The launch of NUTRALYS® Pea S854F involved an entire cross-functional team that brought together the best of our expertise and resources."    We are excited to see the impact that this innovation will have on the food industry and look forward to ongoing collaboration with our colleagues, partners and customers. If you want to learn more about NUTRALYS® Pea S854F, please visit the link in the comments. #ProudToBeRoquette #protein #teamwork #innovation #specializednutrition 

Our regional team in Singapore recently welcomed 22 post-graduate students from the NUS Department of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, National University of Singapore, for a visit.   The local team designed a program for these aspiring pharmaceutical science researchers and future innovators, taking them through how Roquette is unlocking the potential of nature for a healthier future through presentations, knowledge and experience-sharing. Their visit concluded with a tour of our Asia Pacific Innovation Center in Singapore.   “Thank you to the Roquette team for warmly welcoming us to their office and innovation center; it was a great opportunity for our students to learn beyond the classroom. The well-planned program and the caring way in which the team took the time to engage with our students was a real-life illustration of the Roquette values of authenticity, excellence, forward-looking and well-being,” says Assistant Professor Wenqian Chen (陈文谦) who led the student delegation.   By engaging with the NUS students, we are also building on our life+nature sustainability platform of care for people through nurturing the next generation of pharma innovators.   #ProudToBeRoquette #PharmaSolutions #innovation #education

It is important to take care of our immune health year-round and can be even more of a priority for many people during seasonal changes. 🛡️ Did you know that 83% of consumers believe that a healthy diet can help build immunity?   Indeed, maintaining a healthy lifestyle and diet is crucial for supporting our immune system. 70 to 80% of immune cells are found in the gut; therefore, gut microbiota and the immune system work together. Supporting microbiota is key for an adequate immune response, and fiber is a well-known partner for both gut health and the immune system.   Studies show that NUTRIOSE® soluble fiber has a prebiotic effect. By nourishing the beneficial bacteria 🦠 inside the gut, NUTRIOSE® is reinforcing the gut barrier, the first line of defense of our immune system. NUTRIOSE® also has immunomodulatory properties, with a strong anti-inflammatory effect in the gut.   Feed your gut – boost your immunity! 💪   Check out the video below and a link in the comments to learn more. 👇🏼 #immunity #nutrition #wellbeing #guthealth #fiber

At Roquette, one of our objectives to help preserve the planet is to regenerate nature and biodiversity through initiatives in the regions where we operate, as part of our life+nature sustainable development program. 🌎 Recently, the Geneva Green Team, a volunteer group of our employees who work on local sustainability initiatives, organized a fun activity with a native plant nursery near our Americas region headquarters in Geneva, Illinois, USA. The volunteer team members enjoyed spending time outside collecting seeds from three different native plant plots. Native plants are an important part of local ecosystems and contribute to the overall health of our environment and the wildlife that benefit from these plants. 🌱 The collected seeds will help produce more plants in the area and restore biodiversity through restoration efforts led by the local Forest Preserve District. Actions like these are a way we can help take care of our planet’s natural resources, and we’re glad to be part of making a positive impact near the places we live and work.    #PreserveThePlanet #LifeNatureByRoquette #Volunteer #Biodiversity #Environment 

It's always a delight to share with others about what we do at Roquette as a global leader in plant-based ingredients. We recently had the opportunity to open our production site in Lithuania to showcase the journey of plant-based ingredients – from innovation and manufacturing to products for consumers – and host almost 150 interested people in the Panevėžys Open Industry Weekend 2024, as part of Panevėžys NOW 🏙. We welcomed fully booked tours for biotechnology and agriculture students from partners Vilniaus universitetas / Vilnius University, Kaunas University of Technology and VDU Žemės ūkio akademija / VMU Agriculture Academy as well as citizens of Panevėžys city.  🤝🏼 Thanks to everyone who volunteered to make this event an exciting success, and thanks to all the participants who attended! It was a great experience for our local community to learn more about what we make and how we serve our customers, as well as the types of jobs available for future talents interested in working with us.  #ProudToBeRoquette #manufacturing #biotechnology #agriculture #education

We were delighted to say “Bonjour!” to several residents of Croissy-sur-Seine, France, a western suburb of Paris, when they visited our Americas headquarters in Geneva, Illinois (USA). Croissy-sur-Seine is a sister city to Geneva, and the French visitors (Croissillons), along with our Geneva neighbors who hosted them, stopped by to learn more about the company that two Roquette brothers founded more than 90 years ago with a potato starch plant in Lestrem in northern France. We took great pride in sharing how our company, started in 1933, has grown to become a global leader in plant-based ingredients and a leading provider of pharmaceutical excipients. Thank you to the members of the International Cultural Exchange Committee and Geneva Mayor Kevin Burns for fostering this visit between residents of our countries. We especially enjoyed the reactions of the Croissillons, who were proud to see the impact that a company based in their native land has had all over the world, and especially in the Americas, to unlock the potential of nature to improve, cure and save lives. #ProudToBeRoquette #culturalexchange
