The French group Robertet, a global supplier of natural products, has announced its collaboration with the Italian company Aethera Biotech, specialized in the development of active ingredients in the field of biotechnological phytocomplexes.
Between nature and biotechnology
The two family businesses aim to "redefining standards of the plant-derived active ingredients industry, drawing on advances in biotechnology to produce sustainable plant-derived ingredients.
Robertet, a pioneer in the extraction of natural ingredients, uses environmentally-friendly processes and green chemistry to create its active ingredients, including Superoxide Dismutase SOD B, a powerful antioxidant extracted from a unique variety of melon. This innovation has led to the launch of Extramel, Dimpless, Holimel and Melorun, each ingredient providing benefits in different areas.
With its innovative and sustainable proprietary biotechnology platform based on plant cultures in vitro called Crop (Controlled Release of Optimized Plants), Aethera Biotech, a pioneer in innovative biotechnological phytocomplexes, guarantees 100 % natural ingredients free from environmental contaminants, solvents or preservatives. "This mimetic process of nature enables the sustainable production of high-quality ingredients with proven efficacy, thus promoting "enhanced naturalness".the company says. This approach offers consistency and permanent availability, regardless of the season or geographical boundaries, while guaranteeing a high level of safety and respect for biodiversity."
Through this partnership with Aethera Biotech, Robertet aims to enhance its product offering. In addition, Robertet will gradually become the exclusive distributor of products derived from this patented technology in European countries (with the exception of Italy).
"This collaboration with Aethera Biotech testifies to our strategy of innovation through the pursuit of targeted partnerships. With Aethera, we are reinventing traditional sourcing to meet the market's growing needs for active ingredients, while minimizing our impact on the environment. This alliance between two visionary companies will enable us to reach new heights in the field of augmented naturalness".says Olivier Maubert, Director of Innovation for the Robertet Group, and Director of the Actifs division.
"We are delighted to begin this collaboration, which will focus on different areas of action, combining Aethera Biotech's scientific approach with the know-how of the Robertet group. Our Crop platform will be the booster to study and develop innovative products. We are convinced that this technology has enormous potential yet to be explored, with a dual objective: to obtain standardized, high-quality and effective plant phyto-complexes, and to contribute to the respect of our planet".comments Daniele Baghi, CEO of Aethera Biotech.
An innovative rose extract
Robertet and Aethera will unveil their latest collaboration at the In-Cosmetics trade show in Paris, April 16-18, 2024. Together, they will present a product centered on the rose, the emblematic ingredient of perfumery.
AQ3Rose Crop-G is a patented, standardized biotechnological ingredient derived from Rosa chinensis. By harnessing the power of a fraction of the plant, this formulation produces a potent blend of polysaccharides and phytocollagen.
According to the two partners, AQ3Rose Crop-G offers unrivalled protection against premature skin ageing through deep hydration that rejuvenates and revitalizes. The ingredient naturally improves skin elasticity and firmness by stimulating the production of new collagen.
With this first joint venture, Robertet and Aethera push back the boundaries of health and beauty, combining naturalness with science.
