Antioxidants, natural extracts, heat- or light-sensitive actives… In cosmetics, the challenge is not only choosing the right ingredient, but also preserving its stability and functionality throughout manufacturing, storage, and the entire shelf life of the product.

NuCos® protects cosmetic bioactives from formulation through release.

Our protein-based microencapsulation technology helps protect active ingredients against demanding processing conditions, oxidation, and degradation, helping maintain their stability at room temperature while enabling controlled release.

The result: more stable formulations and improved active ingredient performance, with up to 30x greater efficacy compared with the non-encapsulated ingredient.

How does it work?

• Stability at room temperature.
• Easy incorporation.
• Controlled release.
• Protection against:
  • Sterilization
  • Pasteurization.
  • Mechanical processes.
  • Water activity.
  • Degradation & oxidation.
