The biodesign company will feature the animal-free collagen ingredient alongside innovative food and beverage product concepts
Geltor's vegan collagen is featured in new skin care products from Orora. The HumaColl21 has been clinically proven to boost skin health.
There are so many naturally occurring proteins with incredible functions outside of the current animal ecosystem. Our goal is to spearhead the use of bioactive proteins like collagen across new categories. HumaColl21™ opens the door to not only better results, but a better overall process that can safely be used across beauty, the food and beverage industry, and beyond.
After nearly two years of trade shows being put on hold due to COVID-19, Geltor is thrilled to return to the expo hall with our Sales team energized to showcase our highly anticipated food and nutrition ingredient, PrimaColl™, with customers in person.
Our goal is to make it ridiculously easy for iconic brands to build sustainable products. This next stage of growth will allow Geltor to meet the moment our world is facing, as businesses recognize the urgent need to transition to a sustainable protein supply chain.
