Rousselot, a Darling Ingredients global business and the leading producer of collagen-based solutions for the food, health and nutrition, biomedical and pharmaceutical sectors, has signed a new five-year strategic agreement with By-Health, the leading brand in China’s dietary supplements market. The agreement is a continuation of the fruitful collaboration between the two, which started in 2002.

An extension of a first strategic agreement signed in 2014, the new deal not only relates to Rousselot’s supply of gelatins and collagen peptides for China’s nutraceutical market, especially the rapidly-growing “beauty from within” segment, but also strengthens the cooperation between Rousselot and By-Health when it comes to ingredient research and development, production, marketing communications, regulation and clinical studies.
