From capsules to gummies
Since 2023, Cosmofarma has been producing gummies in addition to standard supplement forms. The idea was conceived because many people cannot take capsules, for example, due to swallowing difficulties or because they find it unpleasant. Sometimes a link is also made (un)consciously between taking capsules (supplements) and taking medication, which can give it a negative connotation.
By encasing active ingredients in a pleasant, attractive, and tasty format, we aim to increase adherence to supplement regimens and make supplements accessible to a wider audience.
Making our super gummies
A standardized process was developed to process the active ingredients into a high-quality final product. this ensures equal distribution in each gummy, that each gummy weighs exactly the same, AND that the important ingredients are not degraded or lost during the production process. From our popular GABA gummies for nighttime sleep to our pre-workout gummies for more energy, each gummy contains exactly what you need and delivers it in a delicious package.
“Of course, creating candies that are tasty, beautiful, healthy, and sustainable involves a lot of work and effort, but we are proud of our end product.” Maxim Verleye, Quality Manager.
Our extensive range
Since developing our first gummies, we've been looking for ways to incorporate ingredients from different sources with unique properties into a gummy. In the meantime, we've managed to switch the gummy recipe so that we 100%: Vegan and Halal have the option. For people with digestive problems, gummies with ginger extract and fennel were developed. For people with joint problems, our Resilex blend-in gummies processed.
Our gummies make up only a small part of our product range, yet they are very popular. It's an interesting and new concept that brings enormous possibilities for the supplement industry. Cosmofarma will continue its research in the coming years with a focus on expanding the range so that we can offer our customers a quality solution as an alternative to capsules.
“To date, we haven't found any limits on what ingredients we can incorporate into our gummies; we're continuing to explore.” Tony Van Moorhem, Production Manager
