Tate & Lyle's presence at IFT FIRST will be marked by several initiatives. Key highlights include:

EUOLIGO FOS, a soluble dietary fiber recognized as a prebiotic in the U.S. and other countries, will make its U.S. debut. EUOLIGO FOS complements Tate & Lyle's soluble fiber portfolio with additional functionality and processing benefits, supporting fiber fortification or sugar reduction in a range of food and beverage applications, the company reports.
