Problem
Food and beverage manufacturers often struggle to incorporate functional ingredients that have poor solubility, undesirable flavors, low bioavailability, or unpredictable release profiles, limiting product performance and consumer acceptance.
Solution
Nulixir offers nanoencapsulation services that transform active ingredients into stable, uniformly dispersed nano-sized particles suitable for a variety of product formats, including liquids and powders. Their proprietary encapsulation technology masks off‑flavors, enhances solubility, and improves the bioavailability of nutrients, vitamins, minerals, and bioactives. By controlling particle size and surface characteristics, Nulixir enables precise timing of ingredient release, allowing manufacturers to design products with predictable energy boosts or nutrient delivery. The company provides end‑to‑end support, from formulation design to technical guidance on ingredient interactions, helping CPG developers integrate nano‑formulated actives without compromising taste or texture.
Target Audience
Primary customers are food and beverage CPG companies, beverage formulators, and nutraceutical manufacturers seeking to incorporate functional ingredients with enhanced performance and consumer appeal.
