Mediterranean Extracts Address Asia's Beauty and Wellness Boom

Euromed is positioning two clinically studied botanical ingredients to capture share in Asia's fast-growing nutraceutical market, where beauty-from-within, healthy ageing, and weight management rank among the top innovation drivers.

At Vitafoods Asia 2026 (Booth H6-K09), the Spanish supplier will highlight Pomanox®, a standardized pomegranate extract, and perFix®, a persimmon extract designed for weight management and body composition support.

Two Ingredients, One Strategy

Pomanox® addresses the region's demand for skin health solutions backed by clinical research. Recent studies have underlined the extract's potential in biomarkers linked to cellular repair and longevity—key selling points for Asian manufacturers targeting preventive health and beauty-oriented nutrition.

perFix® targets the weight management segment with a broader wellness angle. The persimmon extract has been clinically studied for improvements in body composition, with research showing it "promotes fat loss while helping to maintain lean mass and also support mood," according to the company.

Market Context

Asian consumers increasingly seek natural solutions that blend visible wellness benefits with long-term health outcomes. This shift has created demand for evidence-based botanical ingredients that manufacturers can differentiate around.

"Asia is one of the most dynamic regions for nutraceutical innovation, especially in the fields of beauty-from-within, healthy ageing and metabolic wellbeing," says Andrea Zangara, Scientific Communication Advisor at Euromed. "With Pomanox® and perFix®, we are bringing together Mediterranean botanical tradition, modern clinical research and pharmaceutical-grade quality to support manufacturers in the development of science-based products for today's consumers."

Broader Portfolio Play

Euromed will also showcase its milk thistle extract portfolio, including Ethis-094™ and Silactive®, backed by decades of expertise in botanical extraction and quality control.

Why It Matters

For F&B and nutraceutical operators in Asia, ingredient suppliers are increasingly competing on clinical validation and origin story. Euromed's dual focus on efficacy data and Mediterranean provenance signals how Western ingredient companies are adapting formulations and marketing narratives for the region's ingredient-conscious manufacturers.
