TELLCAN SCIENCE Shines at FIC2026: Empowering Beverage Innovation with Compound Technology as the "Balancer" Behind Brands
From March 17 to 19, the 29th China International Food Additives and Ingredients Exhibition (FIC2026) was held at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai). NANCHANG TELLCAN SCIENCE CO., LTD. made its debut at the exhibition with a core product portfolio including compound sweeteners, compound color fixatives, compound preservatives, compound emulsifying and thickening agents, colloidal microcrystalline cellulose and food flavors, boasting the booth numbers 41Q30/41R31.
As a technology-driven enterprise deeply rooted in the beverage additive industry, TELLCAN SCIENCE highlighted its application capabilities of compound technology in "functional superposition" and "taste balance" at the exhibition. Currently, the beverage industry is undergoing a transformation from single functionality to composite experience: sugar-free tea requires natural and non-astringent sweetness, electrolyte water demands stable minerals without sedimentation, and plant-based beverages need a uniform texture free from delamination. These "invisible technical details" are precisely the key variables that determine product repurchase rates.

In addition to serving traditional beverage brands, TELLCAN SCIENCE has also been ramping up efforts in the B2B catering channel in recent years, providing customized base product solutions for chain milk tea stores and new tea beverage brands. Ranging from coconut milk bases, oat milk bases to flavored syrups, thick milk and milk cap powder, TELLCAN SCIENCE leverages compound technology to help tea beverage brands solve practical problems such as product standardization, taste stability and shelf life. The rich and smooth texture of "Coconut Latte" and the mellow and dense mouthfeel of "Thick Milk Tea" all rely on the synergistic support of emulsifying and thickening systems and flavor regulation technology.
During the exhibition, TELLCAN SCIENCE's technical team conducted in-depth exchanges with professional visitors from beverage brands, supply chain enterprises, R&D institutions and tea beverage chains. A major concern for many visitors is: at a time when sugar reduction, clean labels and functionalization have become industry standards, how to achieve the "have-it-all" goal through additive compounding – ensuring stability without sacrificing taste, extending shelf life without adding a host of unrecognizable preservatives, and creating distinctive flavor memory points without masking the original taste of raw materials.
TELLCAN SCIENCE’s response is straightforward: technology is not about "addition", but about "regulation". Compound sweeteners balance bitterness and astringency while reducing sugar; compound color fixatives delay oxidative discoloration; compound emulsifying and thickening agents work in synergy with colloidal microcrystalline cellulose to build a stable system; food flavors enhance flavor layers without covering up the original taste. This set of "balance techniques" is the cornerstone of TELLCAN SCIENCE’s years of service to beverage brands and tea beverage clients.

From the perspective of industry trends, innovation in the beverage and tea beverage sectors is shifting from "perfection in a single dimension" to "balance in multiple dimensions". Behind all these popular products – whether it is Mengniu’s milk calcium electrolyte water, Yutianchuan’s large-format ready-to-drink coffee, or the continuously upgraded base milk and flavored syrups from Heytea and Nayuki – lies the systematic support of the upstream supply chain in terms of flavor, texture, color and stability.
TELLCAN SCIENCE’s participation in this exhibition is more than just a product display; it is a clear positioning statement: to be the "technical partner" behind brands, transforming those appealing creative concepts into tangible products on the shelf that are truly delicious, stable and able to stand the test of repeated purchases.
While the exhibition has come to an end, the technological competition in the beverage and tea beverage industry continues. TELLCAN SCIENCE will continue to deepen its research and development of compound technology, providing brands with systematic support from concept to commercialization. After all, consumers may buy a product out of curiosity once, but repeat purchases depend on the genuine sensory experience of every sip.
