Take Our 2026 R&D/Product Development Survey

In this important benchmark survey, we’re asking what ingredients you’ll be replacing (synthetic dyes?) this year or adding (protein and fiber?) and if you’re yet using any AI in the lab. There are only eight mandatory questions. The resulting story will appear online in July and in our August print issue. Fill it out and you could win a $50 Amazon gift card.

Springs brings an important project for our Product Development audience. Our 55th annual R&D Survey provides us — and you readers — with insight into product development issues for this year, including replacement of synthetic colors, addition of fibers and working AI into your lab. But only if you participate! There are only eight mandatory questions. The resulting story will appear online in July and in our August print issue. All answers are confidential, but if you do give us your contact information, we’ll enter you in a drawing for one of three $50 Amazon gift cards.

Take the survey here.
