Review Health Ingredients Japan
Roquette proudly participated in Health Ingredients Japan 2025, held at Tokyo Big Sight from October 15–17, reaffirming its commitment to shaping a healthier future through science-based innovation and trusted partnerships.
Under the overarching theme, “Shaping the Future of Health – From Plant-Based Nutrition to Capsule Innovation,” Roquette brought together its Food and Nutrition team and Health & Pharma Solutions team to demonstrate how the company supports customers across the entire health and wellness value chain — from nutritious foods and beverages to advanced nutraceutical and pharmaceutical applications.
A Complete Approach to Health and Nutrition
At this year’s show, Roquette presented a holistic view of how its plant-based ingredients and functional solutions empower manufacturers to meet evolving consumer and patient needs. The Food and Nutrition team showcased high-protein, high-fiber, and low-sugar prototypes developed using Roquette’s extensive portfolio of plant-based ingredients. These innovations highlight how manufacturers can create healthier and more sustainable products without compromising taste or texture — addressing the growing demand for nutrient-rich foods that support healthy aging and active lifestyles.
The Health & Pharma Solutions team highlighted Roquette’s expanded capabilities following the acquisitions of IFF Pharma Solutions and Qualicaps. This comprehensive portfolio of functional ingredients, excipients, capsules, and delivery systems enables customers to innovate across nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, and dietary supplement markets.
With this broader offering, Roquette now provides end-to-end formulation expertise — from plant-based raw materials to final dosage forms — helping customers bring effective, reliable, and consumer-preferred health solutions to market faster.
Strengthening Partnerships and Customer Engagement
Health Ingredients Japan served as a valuable platform for Roquette to engage directly with customers and partners, exchange insights on emerging market trends, and explore new opportunities for collaboration. Visitors to the booth experienced interactive demonstrations, expert presentations, and meaningful discussions with Roquette specialists across food, nutrition, and pharma applications.
“This year’s event was a great opportunity to connect with our nutraceutical partners and share how Roquette is shaping the future of health,” said Yoshihiro Fujino, Head of Sales for Health & Pharma Solutions in Japan. “With the integration of IFF Pharma Solutions and Qualicaps, our portfolio has become even stronger. Together, we now offer comprehensive solutions — from functional ingredients to capsules and delivery systems — to help our customers accelerate innovation and deliver products that truly improve health and well-being.”
“What makes Roquette unique in Japan is our strong collaboration with customers,” added Naotake CHIKARAISHI, Country Coordinator Japan and Head of Commercial for Nutrition & Bioindustry for NorthEast Asia. “We don’t just supply ingredients — we co-create solutions. By combining our global expertise with local insights, we help our partners design food and beverage innovations that meet Japanese consumers’ expectations for quality, taste, and health benefits.”
