Oliver Wolf, Marketing at GELITA, comments: “Our ‘Be Active!’ campaign is aimed at supporting consumers with collagen-based nutrition that can help them stay healthy and strong – whatever life stage they are at. We want to show that via nutrition, you can proactively influence how you age, how you perform and how you look, and that we have evidence-backed collagen peptide solutions to power product design strategies in this space.”
Active beauty
With a growing number of consumers turning to supplements, foods and beverages that actively boost outward appearance, GELITA is seeing great interest in VERISOL® – its beauty from within solution. VERISOL® stimulates fibroblasts to produce more collagen, resulting in improved hair, nail and skin health, and a reduction in wrinkles and cellulite. Scientific evidence confirms the efficacy and safety of these BCP®, which is why leading brands worldwide rely on VERISOL®.
Active aging and improved performance
Growing awareness that nutrition is a vital component of active aging is driving demand for products that can help people stay healthy and strong throughout different life stages. GELITA’s BCP® are ideal for achieving sharper segmentation in the active aging space as they are highly targeted in their action. FORTIGEL® supports mobility by stimulating joint cartilage recovery; FORTIBONE® increases bone mineral density and keeps the bones flexible and stable – especially relevant for post-menopausal women; TENDOFORTE® strengthens ligaments and tendons; BODYBALANCE® counteracts the age-related loss of muscle tissue and supports better lean body mass; and PeptENDURE® improves endurance performance regardless of age.
Active fill delivery
The efficacy of any supplement hinges on the active ingredient being delivered to the right part of the body and released at the right time, which is where GELITA’s pharmaceutical grade softgel gelatins come into play. For the fast release of capsule contents there is RAPISOL®; then at the opposite end of the release profile spectrum is DELASOL®, a gelatin for the one-step production of true enteric softgels. Other solutions address specific challenges: EASYSEAL® improves capsule seams and prevents leaking, whilst RXL® technology actively improves shelf-life and stability, even for challenging fills such as novel plant extracts, where crosslinking can occur.
