EXTRACTS
Water Based
ACTIVE WATER EXTRACTS FOOD GRADE
The best available plants from selected suppliers are subjected to gentle water extraction to obtain rich and crisply fragrant liquids ideal to produce up-to-date, effective food and food supplements preparations.
About 150 plants and part of plants are available in our ACTIVE WATER EXTRACTS FOOD GRADE line, all produced on-demand to guarantee the best preservation of the active molecules as well as the crisp freshness due to the excellence of the plant material used.
Because ACTIVE WATER EXTRACTS FOOD GRADE are water-based products, they are very easy to use and can be added to any water containing formulation.
No chemical solvent is used in any step of production, making the products completely safe and also environmentally friendly as all by-products generated during the production processes have a low impact on the environment. Using water is also beneficial for the environment because it has zero impact compared to the production and transportation of traditional solvents.

LIPOSOMES
PHEN-LIPOSOMES FOOD GRADE
Our PHEN-LIPOSOMES FOOD GRADE are an efficient and completely naturally derived delivery system that can be used to protect and enhance the effectiveness of food ingredients. PHEN-LIPOSOMES FOOD GRADE are sphere-shaped vesicles consisting of phospholipid bilayers. The chemical structure of phospholipids, in water environment, forces these molecules to rearrange in a tail-tail position creating the double layer with hydrophilic properties both on the inner and the outer surface.
PHEN-LIPOSOMES FOOD GRADE can therefore be used to facilitate the penetration into the cell of water-soluble actives contained in the liposomes, but also of oil-soluble actives that can be included in the double layer structure. The main constituent of our PHEN-LIPOSOMES FOOD GRADE is plant-derived phosphatidylcholine from non-GMO soy. Phosphatidylcholines are major components of biological membranes and this facilitates the delivery effect of our liposomes as they are more easily able to merge with skin cell membranes, releasing the active ingredient inside the cell. PHEN-LIPOSOMES FOOD GRADE can be easily loaded with different kinds of ingredients, offering our customers a broad choice of customization.
PHEN-LIPOSOMES FOOD GRADE
Typical composition: water, [ingredient(s) to be encapsulated], glycerin, sorbitol, lecithin, citric acid, xanthan gum, sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate.
