Consumer markets

Sagentia Innovation has deep expertise in food and beverage innovation. Whether the focus is on formulation, food safety, nutrition, or health and wellbeing, we have a strong track record that leverages a uniquely multidisciplinary approach. This approach includes sustainability through supply chain optimisation, deriving value from food waste upcycling, and novel formats that deliver convenience and performance. We’re specialists at unlocking packaging challenges through strategy development, user-centric design, and applying alternative materials and technologies, all with the consumer in mind.

Sagentia Innovation will work with you to maximise your brand’s potential and deliver positive outcomes for consumers by applying plant-based actives, microbiome-based innovations, and supplementation. This requires close collaboration between your teams and our in-house scientists, product formulators, and regulatory experts.

New technologies like bioprocessing promise to deliver more sustainable routes to some commodity ingredients, greater supply chain resilience, and de-risk sourcing. Importantly, they also have the potential to deliver novel functionalities and enhanced compounds and materials.

At Sagentia Innovation, we can step through the development of new value propositions to conceptualise new health product formats and their development and scale-up.

Sagentia Innovation helps some of the largest pet care providers in the world deliver new propositions by maximising the potential of existing product portfolios, solving challenges with supply chains and devising ways to better understand the needs of pet parents and their animal companions.

We have significant experience in identifying and validating the right-to-play and right-to-win within the pet care space. For example, when developing a device or nutrition-based solution, we draw on our strengths from device development in the medical diagnostics and health monitoring markets and our core capabilities in food formulation and ingredient sciences.

Increasingly, we find predictive modelling, process innovation, and value engineering approaches are relevant for pet care innovation. Discovering, developing, and executing winning solutions demands a multi-pronged approach that Sagentia Innovation can provide, with robust cross-functional experience and capabilities.
