Natural, Sustainable Ingredients

GRA Nutra develops, manufactures, and distributes ingredients for nutrition and health via an optimized, resilient supply chain. The company is committed to supplying customers with natural, sustainable, quality products from their vertically integrated production facilities, with superior customer service and support, while keeping to a price point that helps make the finished products’ benefits affordable to the general public. The ingredients produced by GRA Nutra meet consumer needs in promoting health and wellbeing, while being responsibly produced in Europe, with environmental sustainability built into every facet of the operations as a top priority.

Forward Thinking

We see the limitations to current practices and build better alternatives into our systems. While many companies are working to limit the environmental damage caused by their operations, GRA Nutra begins with the mandate to build production systems that improve or at minimum have neutral impact to the environment.

Clean Label

Clean label is here to stay, especially now with the scrutiny of ingredients and brand track records being part of the consumer product selection criteria. Less is better when it comes to ingredient listings. With our commitment to natural, this comes easily, but we also look at how clean label definitions are evolving. For example, there is increasing use of nanoparticles in food, beverage, and dietary supplements, as well as an increasing concern about the potential health risks and safety issues associated with them. Silicon dioxide is one such product. GRA Nutra recognized this impending concern long ago and, from the start, designed production without the need for silicon dioxide, thus providing manufacturers with nanoparticle-free, stable, high performance beadlets and spray-dried powders.

Committed to Natural

Our team is passionate about sustainable, natural ingredients. Some vitamins, carotenoids, and other nutraceuticals are based on synthetic chemistry and petrochemicals, but many of these could be replaced via algae or fermentation. GRA Nutra not only has the capability, but also deep expertise in fermentation and algae production. We help our customers to make dietary supplements and functional foods and beverages for consumers seeking natural products to support their health.
