Science, Flavor, and Function
Engineered for Results

From concept to clinical validation, our R&D team builds supplement formulas that balance potency, compliance, and palatability. We combine biochemistry, sensory science, and process engineering to turn ideas into reliable, scalable products. Each product is designed to perform as intended, backed by real testing and clean manufacturing feasibility.

Scientific Formulation Design

Ingredient Strategy Built on Evidence


Every formulation begins with data: clinical evidence, safety documentation, and compatibility testing. Our internal database tracks clinical research, supplier specs, and regulatory acceptances for thousands of dietary ingredients. We model dosage, delivery, and interaction profiles to ensure formulas meet intended outcomes without formulation conflicts or regulatory risks so each product is data-backed and production-verified.

End-to-End Process

From Concept Brief to Scalable Prototype

Our five-stage development model ensures each project moves efficiently—from idea to validated, manufacturable formula.

Discovery & Objectives

Define target benefits, market category, and label intent.

Research & Modeling

Analyze ingredient evidence, dose ranges, and carrier options.

Prototype Formulation

Develop bench samples to test stability, solubility, and taste.

Analytical Validation

Verify potency, safety, and compliance through controlled lab testing.

Pilot Scale-Up

Transition prototypes to production lines with full technical documentation.

Flavor Science

Engineered for Flavor and Function

Our flavor chemists and formulators collaborate to create palatable, stable systems that retain actives while masking off-notes from botanicals, amino acids, and minerals. Through controlled sweetness curves, acid-base balance, and aroma pairing, we craft sensory profiles that align with your brand’s demographic and positioning. Whether you’re developing a pre-workout, greens powder, or functional chewable, every round is tested for consistency, stability, and mixability before scale-up.

Verification at Every Level

Laboratory Testing and Clinical Research Support

Our R&D extends beyond formulation into validation, stability, and clinical substantiation. We utilize validated analytical methods for identity and potency testing on all prototypes. Stability and shelf-life are verified under controlled conditions. For brands pursuing functional claims or clinical substantiation, we collaborate with contract research organizations to design small-scale studies, ingredient trials, and compliance documentation bridging formulation science and evidence-based marketing.

Partnered Development

Custom Formulation, Built Hand-in-Hand With You


Every product we create is the result of collaboration. Together, we develop formulas tailored to your market, claims, and performance goals.

Our R&D process is flexible by design. Whether you’re refining an existing blend or creating something entirely new, our formulation specialists work directly with your team to identify actives, define claims, and optimize sensory experience. Each project starts with a discovery session to map your desired benefits, followed by iterative prototype rounds balancing efficacy, flavor, stability, and manufacturability.


You’ll receive data-driven recommendations, analytical support, and full documentation through every phase from ingredient sourcing and dosing strategy to label compliance and pilot validation. It’s a true partnership that transforms your ideas into scalable, consumer-ready products.

Common Questions About Our R&D Services


What types of supplements can your R&D team formulate?

We specialize in capsules, tablets, chewables, and powders—including complex blends that require controlled release, masking, or specialized carriers. Every dosage form is engineered for manufacturability, compliance, and sensory balance.

Do you offer custom formulation support or only stock options?

All of our R&D work is custom. We can start from a blank concept, refine an existing blend, or re-engineer a competitor formula for performance, cost, or compliance advantages.

How involved can my team be in the formulation process?

We treat every client as a co-developer. You’ll have direct access to your assigned formulation specialist for ingredient discussions, prototype feedback, and analytical results throughout each stage of development.

Can you assist with flavor development for powders and chewables?

Yes. Our sensory lab develops full flavor systems—masking off-notes, optimizing sweetness curves, and testing mouthfeel and solubility—to ensure the final product delivers both efficacy and consumer appeal.

Do you support clinical or functional claim substantiation?

Yes. Our scientific staff can provide literature reviews, help design clinical protocols, and coordinate studies with third-party CRO partners to generate credible structure-function data.

How long does a typical formulation project take?

Timelines vary by complexity, but most R&D projects move from concept to pilot-ready formula within 6–12 weeks. Additional time may be required for stability or clinical validation studies.
