Innovative Technology and Collaborations
We pride ourselves on innovation; harnessing patented 3D printing technology to create the world's first truly customised nutrient stacks. Our collaborations with industry giants like Neutrogena and Colgate echo our commitment to pioneering solutions.
Our recent partnership with UPSA brings together two female-founded companies and combines our collective manufacturing innovation with decades of pharmaceutical expertise, to bring groundbreaking advancements in health and wellness.
For this specific launch, we combined our patented vegan encapsulation formula with a brand-new manufacturing technique, developed entirely in-house, to create 7 layered ‘mini stacks’ with optimised dosages of high-impact active ingredients.
Melissa Snover, Founder and CEO of Nourished had this to say on the expansion:
“As the sole female Founder of a manufacturing scale-up, the opportunity to collaborate with Isabelle Van Rycke, CEO of UPSA, has held profound personal significance for me. Isabelle and I share a passion for innovation, a dedication to delivering world-class quality, and an ambition to disrupt the health and wellness industry on a global scale.
“I am confident that the synergy between our manufacturing and pharmaceutical powerhouses will continue to yield remarkable and much-needed innovation in the market. “Our continued collaborative effort will provide ground-breaking, preventative nutritional solutions that cater to the needs of our valued customers.”
Isabelle Van Rycke, President and CEO of UPSA added: "In an ever-changing environment, a company like UPSA can only continue to grow if it constantly reinvents itself. Our acquisition of a stake in Rem3dy Health is a sign of this agility and our desire to continue to adapt our offer to the new expectations of consumers in the food supplement market."
