The Alimenta standard
Built around
the application.
Nutrition, Personal Care, and Health & Pharma require different grades, documentation, and technical considerations. We evaluate each ingredient in the context in which it will be used.
Three markets.
One ingredient house.
Nutrition, Personal Care, and Health & Pharma come together under one roof. Across all three, we apply the same discipline to sourcing, quality, documentation, and regulatory fit.
Across oral and
topical applications.
Some ingredients have more than one path. Marine collagen peptides can support joint health in supplements and skin firmness in topical formulas. L‑ergothioneine and hyaluronic acid can also move between ingestible and topical applications. Alimenta supports both routes with the same discipline.
- Marine collagen peptides
- L-Ergothioneine
- Hyaluronic acid
Human grade
Properly documented.
In U.S. pet nutrition, “human grade” is more than a marketing phrase. Every ingredient, and the finished product, must meet the applicable requirements for human food throughout processing, packing, storage, and transport.
We source from qualified manufacturers and provide the documentation behind the claim, including specifications, COAs, facility credentials, and audit status. Many actives used in human nutrition may also be suitable for companion animal applications, when supported for the intended species, form, and use level.
- Omega-3 phospholipids (krill & algal)
- Probiotic & postbiotic systems
- Joint & mobility actives
From source to
specification.
Specifications, COAs, regulatory status, and traceability are built into how we source. We apply that discipline across the portfolio, from compendial excipients and fermentation-derived actives to nutraceutical and cosmetic ingredients.
Different routes. Shared potential.

“When an ingredient earns its place, it tends to earn it more than once.”
From brief
to repeat order
-
Understand the application
We start with where the ingredient will be used, what it needs to do and the requirements that matter.
-
Find the right fit
We review the grade, specifications, lot-specific COAs and manufacturing controls for your product. If something is not a good fit, we tell you.
-
Stay involved
We help with samples and technical questions, confirm MOQ and lead times, coordinate supply planning and remain available as the project grows.
Care, in every form it takes.
Across Nutrition, Personal Care, and Health & Pharma, each project comes with its own needs. Tell us what you’re working on. We’ll help you explore the options and choose with confidence.
