Alsiano supports Nordic nutraceutical and pharmaceutical manufacturers with sweetening and taste optimisation solutions tailored to their formulation needs.
Unpleasant taste notes from vitamins, minerals, botanical extracts and other active ingredients can be a challenge in oral formulations. Our sweetening systems and botanical taste modulators help improve palatability, balance sweetness and reduce the perception of bitterness and other undesirable flavours.
Combining selected sweetening ingredients, plant extracts and flavours, these solutions can support the development of dietary supplements in formats such as gummies, chewable tablets, oral powders, sachets, stick packs and liquid preparations. Suitability for pharmaceutical formulations depends on ingredient quality and applicable regulatory requirements.
Monk fruit- and stevia-based systems combine complementary sweetening components to adjust sweetness intensity, onset and lingering taste. They can help balance sweetness and minimise undesirable aftertastes in oral formulations.
Potential nutraceutical applications include flavoured supplement powders, chewable tablets and liquid supplements. Ingredient selection and permitted use depend on the regulatory status of each component and the intended market.
Monk fruit decoction is obtained through non-selective water extraction of monk fruit (Siraitia grosvenorii). It provides approximately 4–6 times the sweetness of sucrose, depending on concentration, with a characteristic fruit-derived taste profile.
Its sweetness makes it a potential option for selected liquid supplements, supplement gummies and other oral nutraceutical formats where sweetness and flavour balance are important. Suitability depends on the specific decoction, formulation requirements and applicable regulations.
Botanical taste modulators and sweetness enhancers help improve the sensory profile of oral nutraceutical and pharmaceutical formulations. Depending on the ingredient, they can enhance perceived sweetness, balance flavour and reduce the perception of bitter, metallic or lingering taste notes.
These ingredients can complement sweeteners and flavour systems in applications such as chewable tablets, oral powders, sachets and liquid preparations, helping formulators improve palatability without necessarily increasing sweetener levels.
