Case Study
A prominent North American nootropics brand
While developing a softgel supplement for professionals facing high-stress environments—designed to promote focus and emotional balance—the client encountered issues with significant batch-to-batch inconsistency and strong odors in existing Kanna raw materials. We provided a customized, 200:1 ethanolic extract and implemented a deodorization process. Following the product's launch, the client reported significantly improved bioavailability; furthermore, TLC analysis of 12 batches procured over six months showed a variance of less than 2%, enabling successful entry into the premium market.
A European organic dietary supplement contract manufacturer
This manufacturer required Kanna raw materials that met stringent EU pesticide residue standards for the production of certified organic mood-support tablets. We supplied a 50:1 aqueous extract accompanied by full organic certification, non-GMO documentation, and Certificates of Analysis (COA) confirming EU compliance regarding heavy metals and pesticide residues. Thanks to our transparent traceability system and reliable delivery schedules, we helped the manufacturer successfully pass second-party audits conducted by their end clients and have since become a core supplier.
