From March 17 to 19, 2026, the 29th China International Food Additives and Ingredients Exhibition (FIC 2026) concluded successfully at the National Exhibition and Convention Center in Shanghai. Richen Nutritionals made a remarkable appearance at the event with its innovative Vitamin and Mineral Nutrition Plus Solutions. During the three-day exhibition, the company engaged in in-depth exchanges with partners from around the world and gained valuable insights.
Strong Turnout | Domestic and International Clients Gathered for In-Depth Exchange
During the exhibition, Richen Nutritionals’ booth attracted a large number of visitors from both domestic and international markets for consultations and business discussions. Brand representatives, distributors, as well as R&D and procurement professionals all showed strong interest in Richen’s innovative products in vitamins, minerals, and functional ingredients. The on-site team provided efficient reception and held in-depth discussions with clients on product applications, formulation development, and market trends.
Product Highlights | Vitamin and Mineral Nutrition Plus Solutions Draw Strong Attention
At this exhibition, Richen Nutritionals highlighted a range of core products and solutions, including:
● EasyTaste Reduced-Off-Note Vitamin and Mineral Series
Improved taste with no compromise on efficacy
To address the taste limitations of traditional vitamin and mineral ingredients, Richen Nutritionals has achieved a breakthrough with its proprietary taste-masking technology. Its reduced-off-note magnesium glycinate helps minimize fishy notes, reduced-off-note ferrous glycinate significantly lowers metallic astringency, and the reduced-off-note vitamin B series precisely masks bitterness. This enables vitamin and mineral products to achieve an ideal balance between functionality and palatability, helping remove taste barriers in the development of end products such as dietary supplements, foods, and beverages.
● Rivimix® Instant Premix
Preserved nutrient activity, rapid dissolution, and stable performance
Richen Nutritionals’ innovative instantization technology overcomes key industry challenges faced by traditional vitamin and mineral premixes, including slow dissolution and sedimentation. It enables rapid dissolution in water and various beverages without precipitation, while maximizing the retention of ingredient activity. This breakthrough not only enhances the stability of end products, but also broadens the application possibilities of vitamin and mineral ingredients in liquid food products.
● DC Direct Compression Granules
A one-step tableting solution
To make tablet production more efficient, Richen Nutritionals has introduced its direct compression granule series for vitamins and minerals, featuring three core products: magnesium glycinate, vitamin B complex, and PS (phosphatidylserine) direct compression granules. With advanced granulation technology, the series enables one-step tableting, cutting production time by more than 50% while significantly improving process efficiency and cost performance, making it a highly efficient solution for tablet manufacturers.
● Rimind PS® Phosphatidylserine
The leading ingredient in the development of the PS industry standard
● Richen Nutritionals is the first drafting unit of the Industry Standard for Phosphatidylserine. Rimind PS® is produced from non-GMO soybean lecithin through enzymatic conversion. Backed by three Chinese patents and one PCT patent, Rimind PS® is further optimized through a dedicated granulation process, delivering uniform granules, excellent flowability, low hygroscopicity, and low tendency to agglomerate, thereby greatly improving production and processing efficiency. It effectively addresses the traditional challenges of poor water dispersibility and agglomeration associated with PS, making it suitable for tablets, hard capsules, formulated milk powder, infant formula, and foods for special medical purposes. Focused on key benefits such as cognitive enhancement, memory improvement, relief of mental fatigue, and support for neurological health, it is an important functional ingredient for children’s nutrition, student nutrition, adult brain health, and senior nutrition.
● RiviK2® Natural Vitamin K2 (MK-7)
A purity benchmark for naturally fermented K2, with excellent application properties and stable content
RiviK2® is a naturally fermented all-trans MK-7 vitamin K2, with MK-6 impurity controlled at less than 1%. Produced using supercritical extraction technology, it contains no residual organic solvents and offers higher purity and safety. The product can be flexibly customized in both content and carrier through dilution of K2 crystals, meeting the needs of diverse application scenarios. Microencapsulated RiviK2® also demonstrates excellent stability in complex calcium–magnesium formulations, and is supported by two granted Chinese invention patents, providing strong technical backing and rigorous quality assurance.
● Pure-Chel™ Chelated Mineral Series
A proven solution of true chelated mineral salts
Built on the core foundation of verified chelation, the Pure-Chel™ chelated mineral salt series ensures a true chelated structure through rigorous structural verification. Based on this key advantage, the products combine multiple benefits, including true chelation, high absorption, excellent application performance, and low irritation, achieving a strong balance between quality and application performance. Thanks to their higher bioavailability, the Pure-Chel™ chelated mineral salt series is more easily absorbed by the human body. In addition, its unique crystallization process enables higher mineral purity, while its excellent application properties—including particle size, bulk density, and flowability—allow it to meet the requirements of different dosage forms.
● Rigaba® γ-Aminobutyric Acid
China’s first patented GABA
Rigaba® γ-Aminobutyric Acid is the only GABA ingredient to have participated in the drafting of two industry standards. It is produced through a natural lactic acid bacteria fermentation process, sourced from non-GMO materials, and supported by strict strain identification. Free from chemically synthesized ingredients, Rigaba® has also received naturalness certification from BETA Laboratory. Backed by five granted Chinese invention patents and three international patents, Rigaba® features a patented GABA crystal form with purity above 99% and excellent flowability.
In-Depth Communication | Product-to-Application Alignment
At this exhibition, Richen Nutritionals placed even greater emphasis on in-depth communication with clients and on matching solutions to real application scenarios:
For various product formats such as beverages, gummies, and tablets, we offer tailored application solutions including instant premixes, reduced-off-note vitamin and mineral ingredients, and granules for direct compression. These solutions precisely address clients’ key pain points in formulation design, product application, and stability, making technical communication more efficient, clarifying the path to implementation, and continuously strengthening clients’ confidence in long-term cooperation.
While FIC 2026 has come to a close, Richen Nutritionals continues to accelerate its global expansion. Looking ahead, we will remain deeply committed to the field of Vitamin and Mineral Nutrition Plus, with more professional products and stronger solution capabilities to help customers in both domestic and international markets create more competitive end products.
