Leveraging science and technology to design and deliver superior products

Our Product Categories

At Danone, science and technology drive our commitment to bring health through food to as many people as possible. Our four product categories Essential dairy and plant-based products, specialized nutrition, and waters—embody this mission. By combining advanced research, technological expertise, and a deep understanding of consumer and patient needs, we deliver products that go beyond expectations. Each innovation reflects our goal: to improve health and well-being at every stage of life.

Essential dairy and plant-based products: balancing taste, nutrition, and sustainability

We are pioneers in both dairy and plant-based alternatives, offering spoonable and drinkable options that combine delicious taste with nutritional value. Our range adapts to evolving lifestyles and moments of consumption—whether it's a spoonful of yogurt for gut health or a creamy oat drink to elevate your morning coffee. Our diverse portfolio supports healthier and more sustainable food choices, every day.

Specialized nutrition: science-based solutions for vulnerable populations

Danone’s specialized nutrition supports people during critical life stages—from early life to healthy aging, as well as patients facing medical challenges. We develop targeted products with Human Milk Oligosaccharides (HMOs), offering immune protection for infants with faltering growth. Our innovations address malnutrition, support recovery in cancer care, promote brain health, and provide nutritional solutions for critically ill patients.

Waters: hydration tailored for health and sustainability

Our waters category promotes healthy hydration for all ages, backed by scientific research on hydration needs. We are committed to sustainability through circular packaging initiatives and responsible water resource management. Danone waters delivers natural mineral waters and functional beverages that support health while respecting the environment.

Innovation powered by science: advanced technologies and strategic partnerships

At Danone R&I, we leverage technologies such as AI and virtual labs—including our artificial stomach—to accelerate product development. Our collaborations with academic and clinical partners help us translate scientific advances into practical solutions. These innovations strengthen our ability to design products that meet the nutritional needs of consumers and patients worldwide.
