SupplySide Global 2026 will take place October 28–30, 2026 at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, USA. Natural Field will exhibit at Booth 6511B, presenting three product lines: organic mushroom powders and extracts, cognitive-health ingredients built around Hericenones & Erinacines, and three Health Solutions powered by the NF TriSolve^® liposomal co-delivery platform.

This pre-show preview covers booth information, product specifications, manufacturing capacity, and quality systems, along with tips for on-site discussions. Buyers planning to attend are welcome to book ahead at Booth 6511B and bring target dosage forms and spec sheets for on-site parameter review and sample inspection.

1. Show Information: Date, Venue & Booth Number

SupplySide Global 2026 runs for three days, October 28–30, 2026, at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. Natural Field’s booth number is 6511B.

SupplySide Global is a leading North American trade show for functional ingredients, dietary supplements, and nutritional-health products. Attendees are primarily R&D, procurement, and product managers from brand owners, so on-booth conversations center on ingredient specifications, active marker content, production capacity, and regulatory documentation — not retail-facing selling points.

For first-time visitors, we recommend opening discussions with three pieces of information: target dosage form, target active-marker specification, and estimated annual volume. This allows on-site assessment of spec match, customization needs, and whether delivery lead times align with your launch timeline.

2. Booth 6511B Preview: Three Product Lines on Display

This year’s exhibit spans the full chain from raw materials to finished-product solutions. Ingredients can be sourced individually, or clients can co-develop differentiated finished products on the NF TriSolve^® platform.

The three lines follow a progressive logic: mushroom ingredients address “what to supply,” active-marker specifications address “whether the effective concentration is met,” and NF TriSolve^® addresses “whether it can be absorbed after ingestion.” On the show floor, we will demonstrate this chain end-to-end — from raw-material samples and assay data to finished dosage forms.

If you already develop mushroom-based products but are constrained by active content or bioavailability, Booth 6511B is the place to discuss upgrade paths directly. If you are planning a new product line, we can provide preliminary dosage-form and formulation guidance based on the co-delivery platform.

3. Organic Mushroom Powder & Extracts: Full-Spectrum Supply from Mycelium to Fruiting Body

Organic mushroom powders and extracts are the foundational raw materials on display. Specifications cover both mycelium and fruiting-body source forms, available as powders or extracts, suitable for capsules, powders, beverages, gummies, and other common dosage forms.

“Organic” means the raw materials are managed to organic standards from the cultivation stage, with USDA Organic certification documentation available to support organic claims and label compliance in the North American market. Among mushroom categories, lion’s mane is a focus, with other common edible mushroom ingredients available on request.

Choosing Between Mycelium Powder and Fruiting-Body Extract

The difference between mycelium powder and fruiting-body extract lies primarily in cost structure, flavor profile, and how target active compounds are concentrated. Mycelium is produced via liquid or solid-state fermentation with stable output and controllable cost, making it a cost-effective base ingredient for daily-nutrition products. Fruiting-body extract aligns more closely with consumer perceptions of “mushroom” and suits products that emphasize raw-material form and premium positioning.

In practice, the more critical question is which marker your formulation will claim. If polysaccharide content is the primary claim, standard extracts are sufficient. If you need to label lion’s mane-specific small-molecule actives (Hericenones and Erinacines), dedicated extraction and enrichment processes are required — ordinary mushroom powder or standard water extracts cannot meet the target.

Extraction Process for Preserving Active Compounds

Whether active compounds are retained depends on process control across extraction, concentration, and sterilization. Natural Field operates 6 extraction lines adaptable to different raw-material characteristics and process routes. Three concentration lines use vacuum concentration with temperatures as low as 60 °C to reduce loss of heat-sensitive actives. The sterilization stage uses 2 autoclaves for physical sterilization with no chemical residue.

The significance of this process combination: small-molecule actives such as Hericenones and Erinacines are temperature-sensitive. Conventional high-temperature, long-duration concentration significantly reduces final content. Pressing concentration temperatures to below 60 °C is a prerequisite for achieving high active-marker specifications.

4. Hericenones & Erinacines in Lion’s Mane Extract: 4% Cognitive-Health Ingredient

Lion’s mane extract is the core exhibit in the cognitive-health direction. The selling point is the active compounds, not polysaccharides. Traditional lion’s mane powders and extracts mainly enrich polysaccharides and are used primarily for gastric health. However, lion’s mane is also the only known fungus that stimulates nerve growth factor (NGF) synthesis. Its key compounds — Hericenones and Erinacines — can cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) to support broader nervous-system benefits.

The four core specifications of this ingredient are: (1) highly enriched in Erinacines and Hericenones, not merely polysaccharides; (2) Erinacines can cross the blood-brain barrier and directly stimulate NGF synthesis; (3) Erinacines and Hericenones each reach 4% content, far exceeding ordinary lion’s mane extracts; (4) fully water-soluble, adaptable to a wide range of functional-food dosage forms. Correspondingly, labelable markers include: 4% Assay, BBB penetration confirmed (BBB+), and multi-form compatibility.

Why Polysaccharide Content Alone Is Not Enough

Polysaccharide content is the most universal marker for mushroom ingredients, but it cannot differentiate lion’s mane’s cognitive value. If the formulation target is nervous-system support, labeling only polysaccharides means abandoning the ingredient’s true technical barrier.

Labeling Erinacines and Hericenones at 4% means the target dose can be achieved with lower inclusion levels, reducing the fill burden per capsule or serving while giving formulation design more flexibility in taste and volume. This is the practical advantage of “high-content extract” over “increasing the dosage of ordinary extract.”

BBB+ and NGF: The Cognitive-Action Pathway

A common issue with cognitive ingredients is “effective in vitro, but cannot reach the target in vivo.” The value of lion’s mane small-molecule actives lies in their clear action pathway: Erinacines can cross the blood-brain barrier and directly stimulate nerve growth factor (NGF) synthesis, an important factor in the central nervous system related to neuron survival and differentiation.

Research on lion’s mane actives stimulating NGF synthesis has been published in peer-reviewed journals (source: RSC series journals). At our booth, we provide comparable assay data and literature support rather than conceptual claims, enabling brand R&D teams to conduct internal evaluations.

Full Water Solubility for Dosage-Form Adaptability

Full water solubility is the most easily underestimated application advantage of this ingredient. Good water solubility means it can enter more dosage forms: instant beverages, ready-to-drink beverages, gummies, capsules, and tablets can all use it directly, reducing the need for additional solubilization or encapsulation treatment.

For consumer brands that need to balance both efficacy and taste, this directly determines whether the product can be commercialized. Solubility data and recommended inclusion ranges are available on-site for feasibility verification of your existing formulations.

5. NF TriSolve^®: Liposomal Co-Delivery Technology Solves Absorption Bottlenecks

NF TriSolve^® is the most technically advanced product line at this show. It is not a single ingredient but a delivery solution combining “technology empowerment + data verification + synergistic design.” It uses quantitative screening for formulation design (Design By Science), NF co-loaded liposomes to enhance bioavailability (Powered by Tech), and in-vitro validation plus multi-model data to lock in efficacy (Proven by Data), ultimately forming deliverable finished-product solutions.

The technical core is using plant-derived actives as liposomal membrane stabilizers. Conventional liposomes rely on cholesterol to maintain membrane stability, whereas NF TriSolve^® replaces cholesterol with ginsenosides and withanolides to build a dual-active co-delivery system, making the membrane material itself part of the functional ingredient.

This technology has completed global patent filings covering major markets including China, the United States, Europe, Canada, Australia, and Japan, providing patent-level predictability for clients developing their own brands on this platform.

Plant-Derived Membrane Materials Replace Cholesterol

Cholesterol plays a structural stabilization role in conventional liposome formulations, but it also makes the formula difficult to meet “plant-based” positioning requirements, and concerns about long-term intake are frequently raised in product communications.

Replacing cholesterol with ginsenosides and withanolides yields a fully plant-derived formulation system without sacrificing membrane structural stability. For nutritional brands focusing on plant-based and clean-label positioning, this replacement is a directly usable differentiator in both ingredient lists and marketing communications.

Four Core Advantages: Absorption, Stability, Synergy, Clean Label

· Absorption enhanced (Absorption ↑): Liposomes have high affinity for intestinal cells, significantly improving transmembrane absorption efficiency.

· Stability enhanced (Stability ↑): The reinforced liposomal structure effectively protects contents against gastric-acid and intestinal-enzyme degradation.

· Synergistic effect (Synergy ↑): The membrane material itself is an active ingredient, producing a synergistic effect with the encapsulated contents.

· Clean formulation (Clean ↑): Withanolides and ginsenosides replace conventional cholesterol; a fully plant-derived formula suitable for long-term use.

These four points correspond to the four most common product-level concerns: absorption rate, shelf life and gastric-acid tolerance, whether combination provides additional value, and whether the formula is clean. Supporting data is available on-site.

6. Four-Layer Validation System: Evidence Chain from Cell Models to Human Clinical Trials

Delivery technology can easily remain at the conceptual level, so NF TriSolve^® adopts a four-layer validation system to confirm layer by layer whether absorption advantages can truly translate into efficacy.

The four layers correspond to four different questions: can it be absorbed, how much enters the bloodstream, does it show efficacy, and does it hold up in humans. For brand owners, the value of this system is that product claims have tiered support — if conservative wording is needed, claims can stop at in-vitro and animal data; for stronger efficacy communications, human clinical data is available as support.

Data summaries from each layer will be available on-site for R&D and regulatory teams to evaluate usable claim scope.

7. Three Health Solution Matrix: Anti-Aging, Sleep, and Joint/Bone

NF TriSolve^® has been developed into three finished-product-grade solutions covering three health directions with clear demand and stable repurchase. All three solutions use co-loaded liposomes as the technical foundation; clients can adopt them directly or adjust dosage and combination based on target populations.

MitoAge Complex: Oral Anti-Aging Solution

MitoAge Complex is positioned as an oral anti-aging solution, with the core goal of restoring cellular energy and vitality. Key ingredients include NF co-loaded liposomal NMN and NF co-loaded liposomal CoQ10.

Encapsulating NMN and CoQ10 in the same co-delivery system addresses the shared absorption and stability challenges both ingredients face — both are sensitive to delivery efficiency, and simply increasing inclusion levels is not economical. For brands in the anti-aging category, this is a technical selling point that directly maps to finished-product differentiation.

SleepRestore Complex: Sleep Health Solution

SleepRestore Complex targets sleep health, with the goal of supporting sleep quality at low doses, precisely regulating sleep cycles, and deepening sleep. Key ingredient is NF co-loaded liposomal melatonin, with withanolides as membrane stabilizers.

A common pain point in the melatonin category is balancing dosage against next-day alertness. Liposomal delivery achieves supportive effects at low doses, directly responding to consumer demand for “effective but not excessive,” while also leaving more adjustment room in markets with stricter regulations.

JointFlex Complex: Joint & Bone Support Solution

JointFlex Complex targets joint and bone support, addressing cartilage damage at its source to reduce joint-health issues and improve mobility. Key ingredients include NF co-loaded liposomal glucosamine and chondroitin.

Glucosamine and chondroitin are the most thoroughly validated ingredient combination in the joint category, with low market-education costs but severe homogenization. Enhancing the absorption performance of these two ingredients through co-loaded liposomes is a practical path to differentiation in a mature category, especially suited for brands that need to stand out from existing shelf products.

8. Manufacturing & Capacity: 6 Extraction Lines, 1,200 m2 GMP Cleanroom

Production capacity and quality systems determine whether ingredients can scale stably — this is the most frequently asked topic by B2B buyers on the show floor. Natural Field’s manufacturing configuration and daily output are as follows.

Manufacturing configuration:

· 6 extraction lines, compatible with different raw materials and process routes

· 3 concentration lines, vacuum concentration with temperatures as low as 60 °C, protecting heat-sensitive actives

· 2 autoclaves, using moist-heat physical sterilization with no residue

· 1,200 m2 Grade-C cleanroom built to GMP standards, with microbial indicators below EU limits

Daily output:

· Raw-material processing: 8 tons

· Dry mushroom processing: 4 tons

· Mushroom powder production: 3 tons

· Extract spray drying: 1.2 tons

These figures translate to delivery capability — taking 4% lion’s mane extract as an example, the output ratio of high-content extract directly determines monthly supply. On-site, we can provide production scheduling and lead-time assessments based on your annual volume.

For quality and compliance documentation, SC, ISO, USDA Organic, FSSC 22000 certifications, and CoAs are available on request, supporting brand owners in completing supplier audits and label-compliance preparation for the North American market.

9. On-Site Meeting Guide: What to Bring and What to Ask

To make Booth 6511B discussions more efficient, we recommend preparing three categories of materials before attending: (1) target dosage form and formulation framework, for on-site assessment of ingredient form and inclusion levels; (2) target active-marker specifications and testing requirements, for direct comparison against CoAs and spec sheets; (3) estimated annual volume and launch timeline, for confirming production capacity and lead times.

Materials available for on-site pickup or scheduling include:

· Spec sheets and samples for organic mushroom powders and extracts

· Activity assay data for lion’s mane extract

· Technical documentation and patent information for NF TriSolve^®

· Formulation-direction guidance for the three Health Solutions

· List of available certification documents

Samples and full CoAs can be mailed after the show based on requirements.

We recommend following a four-step discussion flow: needs confirmation → spec matching → samples & data → commercial terms. A productive round typically takes 20–30 minutes. If you are evaluating multiple suppliers simultaneously, bringing existing quotes and specs will facilitate on-site comparison. Pre-show booking significantly reduces on-site wait times.
