Biosyntia produces BIO-B7™, one of the world’s first natural fermented Biotin. This biotin is produced from a sustainable fermentation process based on sugar.
Essential Vitamin for Hair, Skin and Nails
Biotin (vitamin B7), is a well-known nutraceutical ingredient added to products within personal care, food, beverage, supplement and animal nutrition industries. It is an essential vitamin and increasingly recognized as a key component in beauty supplements due to its beneficial effects on hair, skin and nails.
“
It is a significant scientific breakthrough, and we have come a lot further with the technology than others have been able to. This achievement is mainly due to our world-class research- and development team, who have put an amazing effort into making this a success,” said Martin Plambech, CEO at Biosyntia.
BIO-B7™ Produced from Renewable Sources
The Nordic biotech company, Biosyntia, has succeeded in producing high-quality Biotin with a fermentation process, resulting in Biotin which is more
sustainable and natural.
“
Using our BIO-B7™, formulators and brand owners can uniquely claim their products contain fermented Biotin, which is natural and produced from renewable sources – and at the same time our product has a very high purity and full traceability. It provides our customers a new value proposition in the market as well as peace of mind,” said Cecilie Oest-Jacobsen, launch manager at Biosyntia.
Today, the majority of Biotin is synthetic, manufactured by chemical synthesis with crude oil as the main source of raw material. Transitioning from a synthetic to a natural fermentation process provides a
sustainable value, as fermentation processes have been shown to provide a significant reduction in CO
2 emission, chemical waste, air pollution and water usage both historically for vitamin production and specifically for a commercially scaled Biotin process.
