Applications & markets

Dietary supplements including vitamins are critical nutrients for humans and animals to live and grow.
They support various essential metabolic functions depending on the type and formulation. Our dietary ingredients are relevant for end-market products within:

Personal care:

Our products are active ingredients in various personal care products. As an active ingredient, they are essential for the functionality of the consumer product. Vitamins and other nutraceuticals such as antioxidants are common in products such as face creams and shampoos. Depending on the ingredient, vitamins can enrich attributes such as making skin smoother, hair fuller, and healthier.

Dietary supplement:

Vitamins and nutraceuticals are typically known for their use in dietary supplements such as a multivitamin pill to support a balanced and healthy nutritional diet. As supplement nutraceuticals are also used in concentrated form to target certain benefits.

Food & beverage fortification:

Dietary ingredients are today also leveraged in the fortification of food and beverages. Here, vitamins and nutraceuticals are used to either increase the nutritional value of the food to support a balanced and healthy diet or they are leveraged to target specific benefits.

Taste and wellbeing:

In addition to ingredients with direct health benefits, Biosyntia’s portfolio include natural functional ingredients that influence food properties through flavor, bitter-masking, appetite stimulation and similar. This can be particularly useful for animal-free foods that wish to have the same nutritional
