APPLICATIONS MENU
For nearly a century, Nitta Gelatin, Inc. has been unlocking the power of gelatin and collagen peptides through innovation and unwavering dedication to customer satisfaction. In 1979, the company expanded from its headquarters in Osaka, Japan, to North America, brining unique technical insight into the world of gelatin and collagen peptides. Collagen peptides are a non-gelling, water-soluble, functional protein source, derived from gelatin. With exceptionally high concentrations of Glycine, Proline, and Hydroxyproline, collagen peptides provide the building blocks required for collagen synthesis within the body - a process which is imperative to the maintenance and regeneration of healthy hair, skin, nails, bones and joints. As the interest in functional protein continues to grow, collagen peptides are poised to meet the needs of the U.S. consumer, as they have in Japan for decades. Collagen peptides are a versatile, clean-label protein, which may be successfully incorporated into a variety of foods, beverages, and nutraceuticals. The key to formulation of products which are high in collagen peptides lies in the delivery system - through creating recipes that fit consumer preferences with respect to flavor, texture, nutrition and convenience.
