Innovative Trends Advancing the Functional Supplements Market
Companies in the functional supplements arena are increasingly focusing on breakthrough formulation technologies to improve nutrient absorption, user convenience, and adherence. One notable innovation is orosoluble film supplements-thin strips that dissolve quickly on the tongue without needing water, allowing nutrients to enter the bloodstream rapidly. This approach offers a more practical alternative to traditional pills or capsules and is especially beneficial for individuals who find swallowing difficult.

For instance, in August 2025, IBSA Group, a pharmaceutical and nutraceutical firm based in Switzerland, introduced orodispersible film supplements containing iron, vitamin D3, and vitamin B12 across several European countries. These fast-dissolving films deliver precise dosing and swift nutrient release, making supplementation easier and more effective. This launch not only enhances IBSA's global footprint but also highlights the company's dedication to person-centered, innovative solutions that improve accessibility to essential nutrients, support overall health, and meet the diverse needs of populations worldwide.
