MANE Strengthens Innovation Capabilities with Acquisition of ChemoSensoryx Biosciences

In a major move to bolster its scientific leadership, MANE has successfully acquired ChemoSensoryx Biosciences, a pioneering Belgian biotech firm. ChemoSensoryx is globally recognized for its advanced research into the molecular mechanisms of chemosensory perception, specifically targeting olfactory, gustatory, and trigeminal receptors.

The Science of Perception

This acquisition integrates ChemoSensoryx’s cutting-edge technology platform for receptor-based screening and predictive modelling into MANE’s ecosystem. The synergy will deepen the scientific understanding of how complex aromas and tastes trigger physiological and emotional responses in consumers.

Revolutionizing Sensory Science

By merging MANE’s industrial expertise with ChemoSensoryx’s molecular insights, the company aims to deliver unprecedented precision in flavor and fragrance design. This research focuses on four key sensory pillars:

Odour Control & Blooming Advancing proprietary technologies such as FRESHPLEX™, POWERBLOOM™, and POWERLAST™ for enhanced fragrance performance.
Taste Modulation Exploring the molecular triggers for sweetness, bitterness, umami, and the complex mouthfeel of kokumi.
Olfactory Modulation Designing scents that target specific receptors to evoke targeted emotional states and physiological reactions.
Trigeminal Sensations Driving innovation in "sensates" — the science behind cooling, pungent, tingling, and burning perceptions.
A Future-Ready R&D Commitment

The integration of ChemoSensoryx Biosciences reinforces MANE’s commitment to providing global expertise that is constantly evolving. The combined research capabilities will facilitate:

  • High-throughput screening of new aromatic molecules using receptor-based models.
  • Predictive modelling to forecast consumer sensory preferences with scientific accuracy.
  • Development of clean-label taste modulators to reduce sugar and salt without compromising experience.
  • Strategic design of functional fragrances for the health and wellness sector.
Unique Consumer Experience

Ultimately, this acquisition is about creating unique sensory experiences that consumers love. By mastering the molecular interface between chemistry and biology, MANE continues to deliver successful and lasting products for the global market.
