IFF has converted its Arroyito site in Argentina into its first fully fermentation-based enzyme production hub in Latin America. The facility now handles enzyme production from the initial biological stage, which improves performance reliability, accelerates processing efficiency and reduces environmental impact under real-world manufacturing conditions.

The new household care application laboratory at IFF’s Brazil Innovation Center enables customers to evaluate and optimize enzyme formulations for laundry and dishwashing under regional conditions. This lab supports faster testing cycles, more accurate formulations and closer collaboration with local home care manufacturers developing next-generation cleaning products.

These investments reinforce IFF’s commitment to the fast-growing Latin American Health & Biosciences market, where demand for bioscience-enabled solutions is rising across brewing, animal nutrition, biofuels and home care. By expanding local production and innovation capabilities, IFF aims to improve speed and reliability of supply while capturing new growth opportunities.
