INGREDIENTS / SELECTION

Choose the right ingredient for your product

You know the product you want to develop. We help you choose an ingredient that fits its function, format and target cost — and define what to request from a supplier.

You have a product idea. Which ingredient should you choose?

This service supports supplement brands, R&D teams and businesses developing pet products. It is suitable for selecting an ingredient form, replacing an existing raw material or comparing options for one function within a product.

What does the service cover?

  • Clarify the ingredient’s function, product format, target group and market.
  • Compare up to 3 ingredient options against specifications, documentation and cost assumptions.
  • Identify technological limitations and matters requiring further assessment.
  • Recommend a selection approach and parameters for a supplier enquiry.

General terms of cooperation

Questions before you start

Do I need to know the ingredient’s name?

No. We can start with the function it should perform. Clear assumptions about the product format, budget and target group help us make a useful comparison.

Will I receive a complete formula?

This service covers one ingredient selection need. We develop complete formulas and the wider product specifications as a separate project.

Does the price include supplier quotations?

You receive an ingredient recommendation and enquiry requirements. Supplier outreach and comparison of received quotations are covered by our supplier search service.

Do you also support pet products?

Yes. We consider the intended species and use. If the decision requires a detailed review of a specific ingredient’s documents, we agree a separate PET documentation review scope.
