They say that you never get a second chance to make a first impression. For women in particular, their skin, hair and nails are the essential elements of a beautiful outer appearance. Being aware of one’s beauty is a huge confidence booster — but it can be much more than that. In many jobs, well-tended hands and nails are a must have.

It’s always incredibly gratifying to know that our research and development efforts are being recognized by our customers, the industries we serve and, finally, even the end users of products containing our ingredients. It’s a great pleasure to relay any positive news to the teams responsible for all the hard work and the brilliant minds that, seemingly on a daily basis, create new ideas, nurture novel concepts into existence and provide the ongoing drive and determination that enables GELITA to address the health and well-being issues of the global population and make our planet a better place to live.

Sports and wellness products are in greater demand today than ever before. People want to do something for themselves, taking care of their health and wellbeing, and looking after their appearance. That’s why products focusing on sports nutrition, beauty-from-within, and healthy ageing are most in demand. At this year’s Hi and Ni (booth 8E41) in Frankfurt, GELITA offers customized and functional solutions to help manufacturers make the most of current trends.

To stay successful and be innovative, it is crucial to meet the demands of different target groups: product concepts need to deliver real benefits. So, GELITA conducted a qualitative research in the US, UK and Germany to learn more about the problems, goals and motivations of various consumer populations when it comes to physical exercise.

Limited physical performance, muscle loss, the depletion of structural proteins in the skin, bones and cartilage, as well as degenerative joint diseases, are just a few of the problems associated with aging. People who want to stay fit and healthy as they grow older have several options — from sports and lifestyle interventions to the use of preventive nutrients.

With populations aging around the globe, consumers are demanding solutions that let them stay active and healthy for life. Mobility and independence until the end: when we think of getting older, hardly anything seems more important. One of the reasons for this is that those who stay active have a better chance of remaining fit, healthy and are able to maintain a good social life. In this context, when it comes to improving health and wellbeing effectively, collagen peptides can be a powerful partner. In fact, GELITA’s specific collagen peptides are scientifically proven to be very useful in combating many of the health issues related to aging, including joint, muscle and bone problems.
