Comparison Between Conventional and Encapsulated Bioactives

Make Every Molecule Work Smarter.

SowTrap™ encapsulation protects, optimizes and delivers bioactives far beyond what conventional forms can achieve

Prone to Degradation – vulnerable to heat, moisture, and oxidation, potentially reducing shelf life.

Uncontrolled Release – Unprecedented release leads to suboptimal performance.

Low Bioavailability – Poor absorption and Low systemic uptake.

Poor consumer Acceptance – Strong taste, odor, or texture can affect product palatability and compliance.

Low stability – Higher risk of degradation during storage.

Poor water solubility – Poorly water-soluble actives may clump, separate, or leave residue.

Protected Bioactives – Heat, moisture and oxidation resistant for longer shelf life.

Controlled release – Sustained release delivery for optimal effect.

Enhanced Bioavailability – Improves absorption and gives better bioavailability.

Improved consumer Acceptance – Taste and odor masking can improve palatability and overall product experience.

Extended stability – protective barrier, supporting stability throughout processing and storage.

Cold-water dispersion – Improved cold-water solubility/dispersibility.

WHAT MAKES SowTrap™ DIFFERENT

Science-Driven Encapsulation Platforms

Every matrix is engineered from first principles — matching physicochemical properties of the active to the optimal encapsulant for peak performance.

Advanced Multi-Layer Encapsulation Technologies

We employ matrix-based and multilayer microencapsulation approaches to address the specific chemical and physical sensitivities of bioactive compounds during processing and storage.

Engineered Release Profiles

Immediate release, delayed release, or sustained release — our matrices are tunable to deliver nutrients at the right site, at the right time.

Optimized Encapsulation Efficiency

Formulation composition and process parameters are systematically optimized to achieve high encapsulation efficiency and active retention, while maintaining the desired particle characteristics.

Rational Material Selection

All our coating materials are selected for active compatibility, physicochemical performance, processing and regulatory requirements, with a focus on clean-label, consumer-friendly, and environmentally responsible solutions.

Broad Ingredient Compatibility

Our technology platforms are designed to accommodate a broad spectrum of bioactives, including vitamins, minerals, botanical extracts, amino acids, probiotics, adaptogens, antioxidants, enzymes, and other sensitive functional ingredients.

Application-Ready Ingredient Systems

Our microencapsulated ingredients are engineered for seamless integration into a wide range of product formats, including powders, capsules, tablets, gummies, sachets, functional beverages, dairy, bakery, confectionery, and other functional food applications.
