Natural specialty ingredients manufacturer, Naturex, recently unveiled its ultimine iron mineral, designed to answer consumer calls for flavor, function, and nutrition in plant-based foods.
Consumer tastes are changing, and they are keen to sample alternatives to carbonates and plain waters, such as waters with a higher fruit juice content, Danone Waters' UK & Ireland MD has told BeverageDaily.com.
German fine chemicals supplier Boehringer Ingelheim is offering a
new magnesium product to meet increasing demand from companies
looking to fortify with this mineral, writes Dominique
Patton.
Austrian mineral water consumption continued to rise last year,
topping 90 litres per capita. With 2003 designated 'Mineral Water
Year', the aim is to push consumption above 100 litres for the
first time.
