On June 18, as the 24th CPHI China and the 27th FIA Food Ingredients Asia exhibition drew to a close, Focusfreda successfully completed a dual-track showcase spanning pharmaceuticals, skincare, and food. From the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai) to the Shanghai New International Expo Centre, the company brought more than products—it demonstrated another expansion of the possibilities and boundaries of the hyaluronic acid industry.
Although the two exhibitions had different areas of focus, they both reflected the same clear trend: market demand for ingredients has moved beyond straightforward procurement toward customization, enhanced functionality, and applications across diverse scenarios. Throughout both events, we experienced the strength and momentum of this shift firsthand.
From Ingredients to Solutions at CPHI
At CPHI, Focusfreda presented the extensive applications of hyaluronic acid in pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and skincare under the theme "From Ingredients to Solutions." Full-molecular-weight-spectrum hyaluronic acid, multiple sodium hyaluronate solution, and high-value derivatives—including lysine hyaluronate and retinoyl hyaluronate—were among the most frequently discussed products at the booth.
Rather than seeking only a standard ingredient, customers from China and overseas increasingly looked for precise solutions capable of improving delivery efficiency, stability, or synergistic performance in compound formulations. The market's demand for functional ingredients has clearly evolved from purchasing individual components to receiving complete, application-oriented solutions.
Precision Nutrition and Beauty from Within at FIA
At FIA, conversations focused more heavily on precision nutrition and beauty-from-within. Focusfreda's portfolio of functional ingestible ingredients—including food-grade sodium hyaluronate, Tremella polysaccharide, GABA, Cistanche deserticola, and red ginseng—attracted strong interest from food and nutrition companies.
In response to customers' common concerns regarding formulation design, taste masking, and efficacy validation, Focusfreda's business team presented an integrated, one-stop approach to solution development, offering new ways to address challenges in the beauty-from-within and sports nutrition markets.
Full Value-Chain Capabilities Across Applications
Focusfreda has been deeply engaged in the sodium hyaluronate industry for more than a decade. From pharmaceutical-grade sodium hyaluronate to beauty-from-within ingredients, and from pharmaceutical and medical-device excipients to functional food ingredients, the company's full value-chain strategy creates distinctive synergies across diverse application scenarios.
Whether meeting the pharmaceutical industry's rigorous standards or responding to the rapid evolution of food consumption trends, Focusfreda draws on its end-to-end capabilities—from ingredients to solutions—to provide global partners with stable, innovative, and compliant support. The continuous flow of domestic and international visitors to the booths, together with preliminary cooperation agreements reached through numerous in-depth discussions, offered the strongest recognition of the company's long-term commitment.
Exhibitions may be limited in time, but our service knows no boundaries. Focusfreda sincerely thanks every long-standing and new partner who took the time to visit our booths. Your interest and feedback provide lasting momentum as we continue to expand the application boundaries of "Hyaluronic Acid+."
Looking ahead, Focusfreda will take sodium hyaluronate as its foundation and continue increasing investment in ingredient innovation, application research, and customized services. By advancing from product delivery to value delivery, we aim to help every ingredient achieve its greatest potential in end-use applications and work with partners worldwide to build a more precise, efficient, and sustainable industry ecosystem.
