Naples Soap To Launch New Skincare Line with NASA-Developed Stem Cell Technology

By using ingredients grown in a zero-gravity bioreactor, the company wants to become a “serious national competitor” in the anti-aging skincare market.

Naples Soap Company, Inc. has entered into manufacturing agreements to produce proprietary 3D stem cell formulas utilizing technology developed by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for use in new personal care product lines. The proprietary complex in development combines 33 different components, such as different forms of hyaluronic acid, vital nutrients, amino acids and proteins such as collagen and cytokines cultured in a zero-gravity bioreactor.

These components will deliver “clinically proven superior results compared to current anti-aging skincare products using 2D plant stem cells,” according to Naples Soap.

After discovering that cells grow three-dimensionally and reproduce faster, in more abundance and in a nutrient-dense manner in zero gravity, NASA scientists developed a zero-gravity bioreactor and a proprietary method to culture robust 3D stem cells on earth.

“We are thrilled to bring space-age technology to earth with the aim of improving personal care and wellness. Only in Florida, a leading location for the aerospace industry, does space-age tech meet better skincare on earth,” stated Naples Soap Company Founder and CEO Deanna Wallin. “Potent, zero-gravity grown 3D stem cells, we believe, will yield us next-generation growth factors, cytokines, hyaluronic acid, and collagen that will replenish skin, improve hydration, firmness, and elasticity making the company a serious national competitor in the multibillion-dollar anti-aging skincare market.”

Naples Soap Company will use the ingredients generated from 3D stem cells grown in a NASA-designed zero-gravity bioreactor in Florida.

The new line integrating the technology is expected to launch later this year, according to Wallin.

Founded in 2009, Naples Soap Company has 13 retail locations in Florida that offer bath, body and personal care products. The company has been public since June 30, 2021. It is traded on OTCQB under  “NASO.”

Earlier this year it rolled out a sensitive skin line, as reprted by Happi.
