The Trend Report 2022

Industry members recently returned from SupplySide West 2022, where many of the most important market trends were spotlighted. The Maypro team is here to share those trends along with the hot topics that fueled panel discussions and an award-winning ingredient that took center stage.

1 BIG WINNER!

Ingredient IDOL 2022 - Etas

We’re proud to announce that ETAS® won Ingredient Idol in the Brain Health category! ETAS® is an emerging superstar ingredient that not only addresses sleep, stress, mood, and cognitive function—key aspects of brain health-- but is sustainably produced by upcycling asparagus stalks that would ordinarily go to waste.

4 PRODUCT TRENDS TO WATCH

Formulators have been working hard to provide the benefits of animal-derived ingredients with alternative ingredients—for example, vegan collagen, which is not bovine collagen but still boosts the body’s natural collagen production. Interest in non-tablet delivery forms also seem to be growing by the minute, which is why gummies, bites and compressed gums have become so popular. These finished product trends stood out:
