The two companies have been expanding their operations and technology to meet the needs of the global nutraceutical industry.
In a recent press release, Funtrition and Sofgen, two contract manufacturers and advanced gummy and softgel technologies developers, respectively, announced the ingredients and products they will showcase at SuppySide West 2024 in Las, Vegas, NV October 30 and 31, 2024.

In the case of Sofgen, the company will be showcasing its novel and patented technology called Unigel, which is designed for fixed-dose combinations in softgels that allow for multipurpose supplements with stacked benefits. Sofgen will also showcase Chewgels, a chewable softgel format for consumers that have difficulty swallowing or prefer on-the-go products.

These product target a number of health categories, including women's health, kid's health, and active lifestyle, and will feature trending ingredients such as beetroot, curcumin, magnesium, tapioca fiber, super greens, and more.
