360° circular diagram presenting ITERG's expertise: in the center, the key activities (Audit-Consulting, Training, Research, Production), surrounded by cross-functional areas such as Formulation, Green chemistry, Laboratory Analysis, with application sectors such as Food, Cosmetics, Environment, Life Sciences or Agroindustry.

Opt for Natural and Innovative Formulations

If your goal is to :

    • Create natural formulations without using synthetic ingredients,
    • Replace a specific ingredient to improve the quality of your product,
    • Encapsulate bioactive compounds for enhanced efficacy,
    • Explore new textures and functionalities for your formulations.

    Our expertise guides you in characterizing and improving the properties of your products, thanks to an approach focused on :

    • Fat phase quality: analysis of nature and quality, evaluation of properties and determination of optimal quantities,
    • Stabilizer application: Selecting the type of stabilizers, adjusting their proportions, and effective application techniques,
    • Manufacturing process optimization: Improving manufacturing methods to guarantee the quality and functionality of your products.
