Tate & Lyle PLC has received NutraStrong Prebiotic Verified certification for four product lines within its leading prebiotic fibre portfolio, recognising the strength of its science-led approach to prebiotic fibre innovation. It is a member of the Global Prebiotic Association (GPA). GPA recognises and endorses the standards offered by the global NutraStrong Prebiotic Verified programme.
The certification provides independent, third-party verification against recognised scientific criteria. It is designed to recognise ingredient brands that meet rigorous standards for scientific substantiation, quality and transparency. It covers Promitor Soluble Fibre, Sta-Lite Polydextrose, Euoligo Fos and Gosyan Gos product ranges.
Its fibre portfolio is supported by a strong body of scientific evidence. For example, Promitor Soluble Fibre alone, is backed by more than 20 scientific studies and there are hundreds of studies across the full breadth of the portfolio. NutraStrong certification builds on this foundation, providing customers with independent verification of the quality and scientific substantiation behind its prebiotic fibre solutions.
The verification process included: Product specification and analytical review; Confirmation of ingredient dosage supporting a prebiotic claim (including at least one?randomised, controlled?trial?demonstrating?microbiome modulation?and?a resulting health benefit); Verification of laboratory and manufacturer accreditation.
The certified ingredients support a range of substantiated benefit areas, from digestive health to mineral absorption for bone health, cognitive function, immunity, glycaemic control and satiety. As demand for fibre-enriched and gut health-supporting products continues to grow, this certification gives customers added confidence in using Tate & Lyle’s fibre solutions across a wide range of applications, from beverages, dairy and bakery to snacks, cereals, bars and supplements.
Len Monheit, executive director, The Global Prebiotic Association, said, “The Global Prebiotic Association (GPA) congratulates Tate & Lyle on this achievement. GPA has been involved in this certification development, designed to elevate prebiotic products and suppliers who have clinically validated, dose-dependent substantiation."
Katie Adolphus, nutrition science lead, fibres, Tate & Lyle, said, “This certification recognises the strength and depth of the science underpinning our fibre portfolio and our continued commitment to advancing evidence-based nutrition. The efficacy assessment confirms that each ingredient functions as a prebiotic and identifies the dosage range or minimum dose at which this effect has been demonstrated. For us, fibre innovation starts with human health. It must be grounded in credible science, translated responsibly, and ultimately delivered in ways that make a meaningful difference to everyday diets, without compromising taste. Independent verification like NutraStrong reinforces the quality, transparency and trust our customers expect from Tate & Lyle.”
Kevin Yan, vice president of product certifications?at SGS Nutrasource, said, “We would like to congratulate Tate & Lyle on this achievement– the company’s commitment to both the quality, transparency and robust science required for prebiotic certification across their broad, global portfolio and sites serves as an example to the industry. The NutraStrong programme is reserved for best-in-class branded ingredients and we are delighted to welcome Tate & Lyle to our ranks during what can be only described as the era of fibre. In a crowded and rapidly evolving fibre landscape, certification brings much-needed clarity, credibility, and confidence—for both brands and consumers.”
