Cultivating Longevity at Fi Europe 2026 with Kensing
Longevity is becoming one of the most important conversations in functional nutrition. But the conversation is evolving; consumers are no longer thinking only about lifespan. They are looking for ways to support healthspan; it means how well they live, move, feel, and stay active over time.
Kensing at Fi Europe 2026
That is why Kensing at Fi Europe 2026 will focus on cultivating longevity through plant-based, science-led ingredient solutions for functional foods and fortified beverage brands.
From November 17–19, 2026, Fi Europe will take place in Frankfurt, bringing together food and beverage suppliers, buyers, R&D experts, and innovation teams from across the industry.
Cultivating Longevity Through Heart and Cellular Health
Healthy aging starts with the systems that help people stay well every day. For formulators, this creates a strong opportunity to connect longevity with cardiovascular health through plant sterols, support antioxidant health with natural vitamin E, and develop convenient daily formats.
At Fi Europe 2026, Kensing will highlight solutions that help manufacturers build credible concepts for cholesterol management, cellular protection, and everyday wellness.
Plant Sterols for Cholesterol Management
As longevity and healthspan become priorities in nutraceutical innovation, cardiovascular health is moving even closer to the center of the conversation.
Plant sterols offer a science-backed, plant-based approach to cholesterol management. Studies have shown that a daily intake of 1.5–3 g of plant sterols reduces average total and LDL cholesterol levels by 7–12% in a period of 2–3 weeks.¹
For brands, this creates an opportunity to develop everyday heart-health concepts that are non-prescription, statin-free, and aligned with proactive wellness routines.
In our portfolio, you’ll find two phytosterol solutions, including one now available in new formats:
Vitasterol S-80®
Plant-based sterols for cholesterol management concepts, now available in new powder formats designed for better dispersion in aqueous formulas. This opens new formulation possibilities for convenient daily formats such as dairy products, dietetic applications, nutritional shakes, powders, sachets, and other water-based concepts, while supporting clean-label positioning and formulation flexibility.
Sunvasterol™
Sunflower-origin plant sterols, allergen-free by origin, non-GMO, and upcycled from sunflower oil distillates. Sunvasterol™ is positioned for clean-label heart-health formulations across products such as yogurts, dairy and plant-based alternatives, spreads, and salad dressings.
Vitasterol S-80®

This opens new formulation possibilities for convenient daily formats such as dairy products, dietetic applications, nutritional shakes, powders, sachets, and other water-based concepts, while supporting clean-label positioning and formulation flexibility.
Sunvasterol™

Vitamin E: Cellular Antioxidant Protection
Cultivating longevity also depends on antioxidant nutrition. Vitamin E is a powerful fat-soluble antioxidant and plays an important role in healthy-aging concepts because it connects daily nutrition with cellular protection, wellness, and resilience.
For brands developing healthspan products, vitamin E offers clear, recognized positioning: “Vitamin E contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.” 2
Within Kensing’s natural Vitamin E portfolio, two solutions help brands address both nutritional benefit and formulation protection:
Sun E®
Sunflower-derived natural Vitamin E, delivering highly bioactive RRR-alpha-tocopherol for clean-label antioxidant and healthy-aging formulations.
Covi-ox®
Natural mixed tocopherols that help protect lipid-based formulations against oxidative rancidity, supporting freshness, stability, and product quality.
