Microencapsulation Technologies & Applications 2026 will bring together manufacturers, suppliers, engineers, and researchers to discuss advances in microencapsulation technologies, particle processing, and industrial applications. The event will focus on how encapsulation methods can improve product development, stability, ingredient delivery, and manufacturing performance.

Scheduled for Sept. 22-23, 2026, in Bloomington, MN, the event will feature presentations covering microencapsulation chemistry, processing methods, materials selection, and applications across industries including food, pharmaceuticals, and dietary supplements.

The program includes sessions on fluid bed granulation and agglomeration, spray drying, flavor encapsulation, controlled release of active ingredients, emulsions, and coating technologies. Speakers from companies and research organizations will share technical insights into formulation challenges and process optimization.

The event also includes a tour and technology demonstration visit to Aveka in Woodbury, MN, focused on processes such as agglomeration, spray drying, prilling, melt spraying, fluid bed coating, extrusion, and product characterization as well as a tour and demonstration visit to Buhler in Plymouth, MN.

Organizers describe the summit as a technical forum for end users, suppliers, and original equipment manufacturers seeking information on microencapsulation applications and emerging processing technologies.

Microencapsulation Technologies & Applications 2026 is designed for technical and plant personnel, product formulators, chemists, engineers, and business professionals looking to better understand encapsulation processes and their role in industrial product development.
