A universe,
mere millimeters wide.
Sustainably made, microplastic-free particles that protect what’s inside, release it on cue, and make products people remember.
This is an active ingredient.
Between the beaker and the body, it meets one challenge after another.
Handling
- dusts
- poor flow
- oil vs powder
Timing
- has to survive the stomach
- releases prematurely before use
- gone all at once
Compatibility
- reacts with another ingredient
- an oil in a water base
- pH mismatch
Sensory
- tastes bitter
- smells fishy
- gritty
- exfoliates too harshly
- feels sticky
Stability
- evaporates too fast
- prone to oxidation
- photosensitive
- loses color
- reacts with moisture
- loses potency on the shelf
Differentiation
- lost in a sea of sameness
So we wrapped it up.
Meet microencapsulation.
It protects what’s inside. The outside is yours to design.
Color
A subtle accent or a little contrast. Start with the palette you imagine.
Size
Change the scale of what stands out. From a fine field to a visible pearl.
Finish
The way a particle catches the light changes the character of the product.
Shape
Petals, silk-like threads, or a shape you have in mind.
A different
kind of flow.
Fine dry granules for dietary supplements,
or keeping actives like pure vitamin C stable until the moment of use.
Then it gets
to work.
