Azelis, the reference innovation service provider in the speciality chemicals and food ingredients industry, is proud to announce that it has been awarded the top award at FI India 2025’s Innovative Product Showcase Award for its formulation Sugar-Free Postbiotic Gummies. 

With the winning formulation, customers benefit from Azelis’s deep formulation expertise, which delivers sugar-free, vegan, and functional food products that support natural defences and gut health

Principals see their ingredients’ potential brought to life through innovative applications that demonstrate real-world potential and market relevance

Receiving this recognition for the second year running, the award is a demonstration of Azelis’s commitment to innovate and develop formulations that meet evolving consumer demands of the Indian market

Sugar-Free Postbiotic Gummies is a formulation developed to meet the growing demand for health-conscious, functional supplements. Presented in a gummy format, it overcomes a formulation challenge of the category: to deliver sweetness, stability, and a delightful chewy texture, all without relying on sugar or animal-derived gelatin. In addition to being vegan-friendly, the gummies offer a convenient and enjoyable format that supports natural defences and gut health through clinically supported postbiotics. By using a plant-based gelling agent, the formulation ensures a consistent bite and smoother texture, enhancing the overall experience. 

The innovation stood out among 11 prototype displays submitted by exhibitors for the FI India 2025 Innovative Product Showcase Award. Voted by the FI India exhibitors and visitors, the award reflects Azelis’s dedication to supporting manufacturers in enhancing operational efficiency through smart formulation design, while also meeting rising consumer demand for healthier, tastier products. By combining technical excellence with market insight, Azelis continues to deliver pioneering solutions that shape the future of functional nutrition. 

Aparna Khurana, Regional Managing Director of Azelis India, comments:
