01
Ingredient evaluation for your application

Finding the right functional and practical fit

An ingredient may meet its specification without being the right choice for a particular formulation or production process.

We help you compare relevant options based on factors such as:

  • Required functionality
  • Dosage form and product format
  • Processing conditions
  • Ingredient compatibility
  • Target group and product positioning
  • Availability and commercial requirements

Where appropriate, we involve technical specialists from our producers to provide additional application knowledge and support the evaluation process.

02
Formulation and concept development

Support for new products and formulation improvements

Together with selected suppliers and technical partners, we support nutraceutical concept development and formulation work adapted to the intended target group, product format and production requirements.

Depending on the project, we can assist with:

  • Selecting active and functional ingredients
  • Assessing ingredient compatibility
  • Evaluating dosage forms and delivery formats
  • Adjusting texture, stability or processing properties
  • Reviewing available technical and scientific information
  • Identifying alternative ingredients
  • Coordinating samples and technical input from producers

Our role is to help connect the product concept with the practical requirements of formulation, sourcing and production.

03
Technical and supplier coordination

Direct access to relevant specialist knowledge

Questions often arise during development, reformulation and implementation. We coordinate dialogue with our producers to help customers obtain the technical input required to move forward.

This may include:

  • Comparing ingredient alternatives
  • Clarifying functionality and application suitability
  • Discussing processing challenges
  • Coordinating samples and trials
  • Following up on technical questions
  • Supporting the transition from evaluation to implementation

You retain one local point of contact while gaining access to specialist expertise from our international producer network.

04
Customised packaging

Quantities adapted to your production process

Standard packaging does not always match the amount required for a production batch. This can result in additional weighing, increased ingredient handling and partially used bags that must be stored and managed.

For selected raw materials, we can supply customised quantities adapted to the customer’s production setup. For example, when a batch requires 10.5 kg of an ingredient, we may be able to supply the required amount rather than a standard 25 kg bag.

Customised packaging can help you:

  • Reduce manual weighing
  • Simplify batch preparation
  • Limit ingredient handling
  • Reduce the risk of weighing errors
  • Improve production consistency
  • Reduce leftover material
  • Minimise partially used packaging in the production area

Available options depend on the ingredient, required quantity, packaging format and expected volume.

05
Flexible supply solutions

Supporting development, production and scale-up

Supply requirements can change as a product moves from development to commercial production. Required quantities, packaging formats and delivery schedules may need to evolve along the way.

We can help coordinate practical supply arrangements based on factors such as:

  • Development-scale and production-scale quantities
  • Packaging sizes
  • Order volumes
  • Delivery schedules
  • Production planning
  • Alternative sourcing requirements

Our aim is to establish a supply setup that fits the way the ingredient will be used in practice.

06
Connecting technical, commercial and production needs

A suitable ingredient solution must work for several functions within your organisation.

R&D considers functionality and formulation performance. Purchasing considers availability, cost and commercial conditions. Production considers handling, process fit and consistency. Quality and regulatory teams assess whether the ingredient is suitable for the intended use.

We help bring these requirements together and coordinate the necessary dialogue with suppliers and technical specialists. This allows relevant considerations to be addressed earlier and helps projects move more efficiently from evaluation to implementation.
