KRAIBURG TPE sets strong accents in the development of new compounds for food contact and fire protection environments

New materials for food contact applications and further developments in the field of flame retardancy are the product highlights at K 2025 from KRAIBURG TPE. 
(Image: © 2025 KRAIBURG TPE)Soon after it was founded in 1952, the “K” established itself as the world's leading trade fair for the manufacture and processing of plastics and rubber. The extensive three-year cycle in which it has been held ever since ensures an enormously high density of information and innovation within the overall show of exhibits on display there. Expectations are correspondingly high when Düsseldorf hosts around 180,000 trade fair visitors in “K fever” in the second week of October 2025! KRAIBURG TPE has already been preparing for this for several months. 150 square meters of the approximately 175,000 square meters of exhibitor space will once again be reserved for the TPE manufacturer from Waldkraiburg on the renowned “Gummistraße” (with stand location “Hall 6, booth #C58-03”).

Une nouvelle étude préclinique met en évidence la combinaison unique de prébiotiques dérivés de la chicorée et d'oligosaccharides de lait maternel (HMO) pour améliorer la santé intestinale des tout-petits

Une nouvelle étude préclinique met en évidence la combinaison unique de prébiotiques dérivés de la chicorée et d'oligosaccharides de lait maternel (HMO) pour améliorer la santé intestinale des tout-petits. (Photo: BENEO, PR034)Une nouvelle étude préclinique, menée par Pudenz et al. , démontre que la combinaison de fructanes - de type inuline et dérivés de la chicorée - avec de l’oligosaccharide de lait maternel (HMO), le 2’-fucosyllactose (2’-FL), entraîne des effets additifs, voire synergiques, sur le microbiote intestinal des tout-petits. Cette étude - l'une des premières à tester différentes combinaisons de prébiotiques issus de racine de chicorée avec du 2'-FL - renforce les arguments en faveur de l'utilisation de mélanges de prébiotiques dans les préparations lactées afin de favoriser la santé intestinale des jeunes enfants, avec des bienfaits potentiels à long terme pour les fonctions digestives et immunitaires.
