IFF<\/a>\u00a0(NYSE: IFF) \u2014 a global leader in flavors, fragrances, food ingredients and health & biosciences \u2014 is enhancing regional production and\u00a0innovation<\/a>\u00a0capabilities to better support the continued growth of its Health & Biosciences (H&B) business in Latin America, one of the fastest-growing markets for the company. The effort includes the transformation of the Arroyito site in Argentina into IFF\u2019s first full fermentation\u2011based enzyme production hub in the region and the opening of a household care application laboratory at IFF\u2019s\u00a0Innovation Center<\/a>\u00a0in Brazil. Together, these enhancements expand IFF\u2019s regional footprint and are expected to improve speed, reliability and locally relevant solutions for markets including\u00a0brewing<\/a>,\u00a0animal nutrition<\/a>,\u00a0biofuels<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0home care<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is about turning science into impact where it matters most,\u201d said Let\u00edcia Gon\u00e7alves, president of IFF H&B.<\/strong> \u201cBy bringing world\u2011class fermentation and application capabilities to Latin America, we are accelerating innovation for our customers and translating that into better food, more effective cleaning solutions and everyday products that improve quality of life for millions of consumers across the region.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n

IFF\u2019s deep expertise in fermentation technology is at the heart of the Arroyito expansion, enabling the production of high\u2011performance\u00a0enzymes<\/a>\u00a0through controlled biological processes that deliver consistent results under real\u2011world manufacturing conditions while reducing environmental impact. With the enhancements, IFF will now produce enzymes locally from the initial biological stage rather than relying solely on final processing and packaging steps, improving performance reliability, increasing processing efficiency and enabling faster adjustments as customer needs evolve across applications including brewing, animal nutrition, biofuels and home care.<\/p>\n\n\n

Complementing the Arroyito plant transformation, IFF\u2019s new household care application laboratory in Brazil is designed to help customers evaluate and optimize enzyme performance under real regional conditions. The laboratory supports\u00a0laundry<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0dishwashing<\/a>\u00a0applications, enabling faster testing, improved formulation accuracy and closer collaboration with customers developing next\u2011generation cleaning products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLatin America is a dynamic growth market for bioscience\u2011enabled solutions,\u201d said Deia Vilela, vice president of Latin America for IFF H&B<\/strong>. \u201cWhat\u2019s most exciting is how this momentum is being shaped through deeper partnerships with customers and teams across the region, creating a strong foundation for sustained innovation and shared growth in the years ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Building on more than four decades of industrial biotechnology leadership, IFF\u2019s investment reinforces its long\u2011term commitment to the region and positions its Health & Biosciences business to capture future growth across food, home and personal care, animal nutrition and bio\u2011industrial markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
