01The lab

Bespoke blends, engineered in Dubai.

An applied food-science lab for the brands that off-the-shelf ingredients fail: formulation, stability, sensory and pilot trials, with a network of universities, manufacturers and specialists behind it.

02What we make

The core of a product, blended to order.

A client comes to the lab when a catalogue ingredient will not do: when the drink has to stay clear, the bar has to carry a dose, the powder has to dissolve, the claim has to hold. We formulate the blend that does that, and manufacture it.

01

Energy and cognition blends

Custom energy, focus and nootropic matrices for ready-to-drink, shots and powders: acid and heat stable, flavour-masked.

02

Nutritional premixes

Vitamins, minerals, amino acids, botanicals and adaptogens, formulated for solubility and bioavailability, for drinks, powders, gummies and capsules.

03

Droplets and micro-encapsulates

Precision-dosed actives in uniform droplets, for controlled release, rapid uptake and the protection of sensitive ingredients.

04

Functional crumbs and inclusions

Active-enriched crumbs, clusters and inclusions for bars, bakery, cereals and plant-based bases, ready for the line.

03Four lenses

Looked at four ways before it is made once.

Functional

What must the end user feel?

Onset, duration and bioavailability, tuned to the outcome the product promises.

Sensory

How does it taste?

Taste, smell, mouthfeel and masking, checked by independent panels, not by us.

Technical

Does it hold?

Solubility, stability, colour and shelf life, measured in your pH, heat, fat, sugar and protein matrix.

Commercial

What does it cost in use?

Dosage efficiency and the supply chain behind every ingredient, from day one.

04From concept to the line

Six steps, one certificate at the end.

Low-minimum trials to high-volume runs, in GMP, HACCP and ISO 22000 aligned facilities and audited partners, with full traceability and accelerated and real-time stability programmes. NDA first; private label where it is wanted.

01

Discover

The consumer and the matrix, in depth.

02

Research

Feasibility, regulation and ingredient screening, with the experts we trust.

03

Formulate

Lab prototypes through the four lenses.

04

Validate

Stability, sensory and efficacy, then a pilot run.

05

Manufacture

Scale-up, QA and QC, logistics.

06

Launch support

Troubleshooting and optimisation on your line.

05How a blend is carried

Four delivery systems.

Liquid blends
Acid and heat stable emulsions for drinks and shots, with no ringing and no fallout.
Droplets
Uniform droplets for precise dosing and rapid uptake.
Crumbs and powders
Agglomerated, instantised or coated for even distribution through a bar, a bake or a base.
Encapsulation
Protects sensitive actives through processing and shelf life, and masks off-notes.

06The network

More than a lab: the people it trusts.

Built over several years: universities for bioavailability and validation, manufacturers and co-packers for pilot and scale, specialists in botanicals, nootropics, vitamins, minerals and encapsulation, independent sensory panels, and regulatory advisors for the GCC, Europe, the United States and Asia, so a product is formulated for its market from the first day.

Tell us the impact you want.

An energy drink with a clean label, a premix for a ready-to-drink, a crumb for a plant-based base, droplets for a dose that has to land. We will engineer the blend, and prove it in the lab, the factory and the market.
