The Digital Lab
Delayed by time spent searching for data and repeating the same experiments? In a lab network, data is the most valuable currency. The more effectively your formulators can view, manage and utilize data, the better they can drive innovative products. With the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, your formulation teams can increase lab efficiency through accessible data, and digital discovery and testing capabilities — while accelerating scale-up from lab to production.
Project Management and Collaboration
Do your formulation teams spend more time gathering data and less time innovating? Keeping a finger on the pulse of the consumer and developing winning innovations have always been a challenge for brands in product development. By collaborating securely on formula development through the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, your teams across the enterprise can speed up decisions, automate workflows and fast track innovative products.
Formula Design
Whether you are launching a new alternative protein food spread, sunscreen with new skin benefits or cosmetic products without artificial compounds, a small change to the raw materials, formulas and recipes can impact time, cost and compliance. Science is the key for brands to improve formulation speed, performance and safety. The 3DEXPERIENCE platform allows your formulators to design, test and develop high-quality, cost-effective and compliant product formulas, faster.
Specifications Management
Facing extended approval times due to inaccurate specifications? Without accurate and accessible product specifications, brands run the risk of developing sub-optimal recipes that can delay the time to market. Slash development time and limit product recalls by standardizing product specifications on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. Increase control over changes, improve knowledge reuse while ensuring product quality.

Product Formulation and Development: FAQ
Formulation management software like the 3DEXPERIENCE platform empowers manufacturers to deliver sustainable, cost-compliant and quality products to the market. With smart technology and data science on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, manufacturers can improve lab efficiency with centralized product data management and virtually test the viability of formulation changes with in-silico modeling.
Product formulation in cosmetics explores the chemistry of different ingredients or raw materials to deliver improved properties and active ingredients in a convenient and useable form like a sunscreen with new skin benefits. However, formulations that prove unstable over time could create poor consumer experiences or lead to health incidents. As consumers shift to healthier foods, alternative proteins and cleaner cosmetic products, brands need to rely on data science to influence how new molecules, ingredients and formulas create more sustainable products.
Product formulation in food is the development of ingredients, formulas and recipes that are continuously tailored to consumers' preferences.
According to the International Food Information Council Foundation, around 69% of consumers are examining a product’s nutrition label to gauge its health value. But while they desire better nutrition, consumers don’t wish to compromise on texture and taste. Instead, they want sensory experiences with healthier food ingredients.
Meanwhile, growing instances of taxes on sugar, salt and fat are forcing brands to rethink product offerings to remove preservatives and artificial colorings. The challenge lies in maintaining the same sweetness, mouthfeel and texture given by the original ingredient. To launch more sustainable formulas, brands need to deploy a smart, data-driven strategy, powered by the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.
