“The product is designed to support immune defense, gut lining integrity, and nutrient absorption, making it a powerful ally for overall wellness and performance,” said Homewood. “We’ve positioned ImmuniGen as a market leader by combining scientific formulation, superior sourcing practices, and clean-label transparency, and by responding to consumer demand for functional products that are both effective and trustworthy.”

Select Custom Solutions is being honored for much more than filling a consumer need. 

In lightning-quick time, MHF Group Holdings expanded its processing and packaging capabilities with the addition of the Select Custom Solutions Southwest facility, dedicated to ImmuniGen. This investment included the integration of state-of-the-art equipment and a proprietary drying and agglomeration process, dramatically enhancing efficiency, solubility and more.

Dairy Foods and ADPI present the Breakthrough Award for Ingredient Innovation annually. Select Custom Solutions Southwest follows Idaho Milk Products, which was honored in 2024 for the formulation of its IdaPlus 1090, a protein used in ready-to-drink beverages.

“Innovation is the lifeblood of the dairy ingredients industry. Every year we look forward to the Breakthrough Award to spotlight the dedication to innovation we see from ingredient formulators and processors across the dairy industry. These are the innovations that catalyze great opportunities for category and product growth across dairy,” remarked Peckenpaugh.
