Celebrating over 100 years of pioneering achievements, Wellnex, born in Japan, stands as a world leader in collagen peptide production. With a heritage deeply rooted in Nitta Gelatin Inc.'s Peptide Division in Osaka, Wellnex extends its reach globally, operating manufacturing, sales, and product support across Japan, North America, China, and India. This expansive network underlines Wellnex's commitment to delivering exceptional collagen peptides, backed by a rich cultural history and an unparalleled depth of technical expertise.
Award-Winning Excellence and Scientific Breakthroughs
The commitment of Wellnex to quality and innovation was internationally acknowledged when Nitta Gelatin launched Replenwell™, a premium line of collagen peptides, in 2020. This product line has garnered significant recognition, including NutraIngredients-USA’s 2021 Ingredient of the Year and being a NutraIngredients-ASIA 2021 finalist.
Wellnex's significant milestone came over a decade ago with the identification of the bioactive dipeptides proline-hydroxyproline “PO” and hydroxyproline-glycine “OG” within collagen peptides. Research revealed that these compounds are highly present in the bloodstream after ingestion of Wellnex’s collagen peptides and accumulate in tissues such as skin and cartilage, demonstrating remarkable resistance to peptidases. Further clinical trials have substantiated that collagen peptides rich in PO-OG yield greater health benefits, notably improving skin moisture and elasticity, over standard collagen peptides.
Global Recognition and Regulatory Acclaim
Wellnex’s collagen peptides were the first and only collagen ingredient in Japan to be recognized for their dual benefits in enhancing skin moisture and elasticity, as per Japan’s “Food with Function Claim” (FFC) system. This acclaim validates Wellnex’s strict compliance with scientific research and clinical trials, facilitating its incorporation into prominent beauty products across Asia.
Advancing Knowledge through Scientific Discovery
Wellnex's collagen peptides are at the innovation forefront, protected by over 25 patents that span new processes, research methods, and unique applications. These patents underscore Wellnex’s commitment to advancing collagen peptide technology and its dedication to improving global health and well-being. Wellnex, with its storied past and promising future of relentless innovation and scientific breakthroughs, offers partners and customers a reliable association with a legacy of excellence in collagen peptide technology.
