The Future of Encapsulation Technologies Heads to Valencia: Sphera Encapsulation at the 28th Microencapsulation Industrial Convention
The advanced formulations sector is undergoing a profound transformation driven by sustainability and scientific efficiency.
Within this rapidly evolving landscape, Sphera Encapsulation is ready to bring its scientific contribution beyond national borders.
From June 8th to 11th, 2026, the center of global innovation will move to Spain — more specifically to Valencia — where the prestigious 28th Microencapsulation Industrial Convention will take place.
This international event, promoted by the Bioencapsulation Research Group and hosted by the renowned Spanish technological center AINIA, represents a leading meeting point for the global industrial and academic community.
For a company like ours, focused on pushing beyond current technological limitations, participation in this event is not simply a milestone, but a strategic decision.
Why Sphera Encapsulation is Participating in the Microencapsulation Industrial Convention
As the first Italian company fully dedicated to research and development in advanced encapsulation technologies, Sphera Encapsulation’s presence in Valencia reflects a clear vision: accelerating technology transfer from laboratory research to the global market.
The Microencapsulation Industrial Convention has historically represented a catalyst for the most advanced industrial trends. Participating actively allows us to:
• Validate our scientific progress in material chemistry and food chemistry alongside leading international experts.
• Present our proprietary encapsulation technologies, demonstrating how high industrial performance can coexist with bio-compatibility and sustainability.
• Develop international synergies to co-design the delivery systems of the future, from microencapsulation to nanoencapsulation.
Through these three operational pillars, we aim to strengthen the role of Italian research within European innovation discussions while simultaneously creating new co-development opportunities with global partners.
What to Expect from the Valencia Event and the Value of Italian Encapsulation Technology
The four-day event in Spain promises to deliver highly innovative insights and industrial perspectives.
The conference will not be limited to theoretical discussions, but will provide a concrete overview of some of the industry’s most pressing challenges: active ingredient stability, controlled release systems, and the development of eco-compatible formulations, supported by AINIA’s expertise in food, cosmetics, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology applications.
What can be expected from such a major event?
Certainly, an unprecedented focus on eco-centric solutions.
And this is precisely where Sphera Encapsulation’s approach can make a difference.
Founded through the vision of specialists in material chemistry and food chemistry, our innovative start-up has redefined the concept of encapsulation core business by bringing unique and highly specialized solutions to the market.
When we speak about encapsulation technology, we refer to a sophisticated set of methodologies designed to enclose functional substances within customized protective matrices.
We engineer tailored barriers capable of generating particles with precisely calibrated dimensions:
• Microencapsulation solutions (structures ranging from 1 to 1000 microns).
• Advanced nanoencapsulation systems designed to maximize ingredient bioavailability and functionality.
Each dimensional solution is developed to address specific industrial needs related to stability, taste masking, or targeted release within the functional food, nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and agrochemical sectors.
Our participation in Valencia from June 8th to 11th, 2026, will highlight how material engineering can be fully sustainable, safe, and oriented toward real human well-being.
Join Us in Shaping Sustainable Innovation in Encapsulation at Microencapsulation Industrial Convention
The values behind every formulation we develop are built upon two essential pillars: absolute respect for the environment and a strong focus on human well-being.
We believe that true innovation must translate into genuinely sustainable formulations and ethical choices capable of concretely improving people’s quality of life.
The 28th Microencapsulation Industrial Convention will provide the ideal stage to demonstrate that the chemical and food industries can — and must — evolve in harmony with the planet.
The countdown to Valencia has officially begun, and we look forward to sharing behind-the-scenes moments, discoveries, and key highlights from this scientific journey.
