We are a trade association representing manufacturers of high-quality specialist nutritional and aseptically compounded products. Our members produce infant formula, follow-on formula, young child formula, complementary weaning foods, medical foods for diagnosed disorders and medical conditions and parenteral nutrition and provide aseptic compounding services for chemotherapy, antibiotics and Central Intravenous Additive Services (CIVAS).
Infants from 0 to 12 months old
Young children under 3 years old
Patients with clinically diagnosed diseases, disorders or medical conditions
People who are critically or chronically ill
Some health conditions and diseases can be managed with nutritional solutions
These people have different nutritional needs from the general population; they are typically vulnerable groups who may require specialist care from healthcare professionals.
Specialist nutrition products are developed on the basis of ongoing research, are supported by a foundation of scientific data, and are highly regulated. They are used in hospitals, nursing homes, and in the community.
We work closely with Specialised Nutrition Europe (SNE) and the International Dietary Foods Industries (ISDI).
