Visit Silab at booth 129 to discover three peptide-based natural active ingredients:

• Peptilium: natural biopeptides for an anti-aging effect;

• Nutripeptides: natural di- and tri-peptides for skin, scalp and hair care; and

• Lightskin: natural depigmenting sulfur-containing peptides.

What are peptides? Peptides are biological molecules synthesized by all cells in the organisms. Natural peptides can also be obtained by the hydrolysis of proteins in small fragments, allowing to expose peptides previously protected inside three-dimensional structures. There are numerous sources to obtain natural peptides, from plants to microorganisms.

Why are natural peptides interesting molecules? By coupling the diversity of raw materials to enzymes able to hydrolyze proteins, the combination of resulting natural peptides is endless and targets are multiple, compared to synthetic peptides that have limited activity toward a unique biological target.

How does Silab uses them? Natural peptides have been one of the cornerstones of Silab’s success for decades and remain at the heart of its strategic developments. The company uses its adaptability and know-how to optimize the value of natural peptides through the continuous development of new extraction and purification technologies.
