Did you know2023
IFF is publicly known as a fragrance and flavor company, but through the 2021 DuPont Nutrition & Biosciences acquisition, they became the world's largest producer of pectin — the gelling agent extracted from citrus peel and apple pomace that makes jam, jelly, and confectionery gel. IFF's Danisco division also makes the world's most widely used food enzymes (lipase for cheese, amylase for bread, protease for brewing), human probiotics, and animal feed enzymes. The same IFF perfumers who formulate Calvin Klein fragrances also make the enzymes in every slice of commercial bread, the probiotic cultures in Activia yogurt competitors, and the pectin in every jar of Smucker's jam — from a single specialty chemicals company that started as a fragrance house in New York in 1889. The IFF-DuPont N&B merger created a company that spans fragrance, food texture, nutrition, and agricultural biosciences — four different industries with no obvious connection except biochemistry.
