Nu Skin Enterprises, Inc. has acquired 3i Solutions, a Wooster, OH-based ingredients company that specializes in manufacturing oil-soluble material that is water-dispersible for cosmetics, food and nutritional industries. The technologies will enable Nu Skin to create new product forms and increase the performance of its formulations in beauty and wellness by leveraging 3i's proprietary research and processes, the company said.
"3i Solutions has some of the deepest experience and knowledge in the industry of encapsulating ingredients for the cosmetic and nutritional supplement markets," said Ritch Wood, CEO. "Our sales force and consumers will benefit from an expansion of our product innovation such as improved absorption of nutritional ingredients, innovative ingredient delivery methods, controlled release of active ingredients and new delivery formats to meet a variety of customer needs."
With nearly three decades of experience, 3i's approach involves ease of inclusion into water-based formulations through proprietary encapsulation technology that improves absorption of nutritional ingredients, extends shelf-life, and more.
"We're excited to be part of a larger organization that shares the same values as 3i Solutions," said Charles Brain, president and CEO of 3i Solutions. "Together, we plan to accelerate our innovation and offer more solutions to our customers while also closely integrating our technologies with Nu Skin to enhance its already world-class product offerings."
