Why Choose Guires's FRL as Your Food Product Development (FPD) Consultant and Partner?

There are several options in almost every product area in today’s market, and the difficulty is in coming up with unique items that stand out and connect with customers. Guires Food Research Lab (FRL) takes a holistic approach to creating food and beverage products. We define, demographically target, and build effective goods through a sequential process for category selection and comprehension. The client can visit the lab to learn the process. We offer unlimited rounds of revisions to ensure customer satisfaction. The final product prototype, along with the documentation process, including the video (through email), will be shipped to the client, and in case the client is not satisfied with the video, a food technology consultant will visit the place for the product demo at the client’s costs.

What are the different forms that you deliver the Food Product Formulations?

The food industry is witnessing a new form of consumption. Keeping that in mind, we can formulate the products in the form of ready-to-eat, ready-to-drink, ready-to-mix, ready-to-serve, and ready-to-cook food products. We use ingredients that offer an added value to the development and improve its indulgence and sustainability in terms of its functional ingredients, plant-based food dyes, and natural preservatives with a clean label.

What are the sectors Food Research Lab cover?

We cover a wide range of sectors such as soups, sauces and dips, chips, tortillas, dry beverage powder, plant-based products, masalas, puddings, instant mixes and many more.

How is sensory testing been carried out?

Our sensory examination leads to the precise formulation and recipe recommendations. We develop data-driven design models based on sensory research and customer insights. The fact-based design methodology used by Guires reduces risk and gives our clients market confidence while cutting development time in half. With our dedicated sensory lab facility, our team takes satisfaction in creating and optimizing successful products in the marketplace, generating a favourable return on investment, and developing brand advocates.

Maintenance of Skin tone and clarity of complexion

Maintenance of Skin tone and clarity of complexion

Most of the people desire a flawless complexion and experiment with various products and techniques to achieve it. The range of cosmeceuticals has grown almost exponentially, with the discovery of alpha-hydroxy acids for exfoliation and skin rejuvenation, different formulations of topical vitamin c, and an overflowing basket of antioxidants, among other things.
The use of cosmeceutical components in nutraceutical applications has grown relatively common; however, the opposite is still in its early stages. This is due to the fact that topical distribution of natural cosmeceutical and nutraceutical compounds poses distinct issues due to the chemistry of individual chemicals and the mode of their targeted biological action.

Guires’s FRL can be the right fit for your Skin Whitening or depigmentation because we

Co-creation from stakeholders and community input

Stop the guesswork! Our prototype concepts come from science/evidence-based research conducted by our researchers, sensory research from panellists, competitors and product market research, and inputs from consumers through focus groups, interviews, regional-focused consumer journey mapping, and many more. Get information that allows you to make crystal clear decisions.

Ingredient Focus

We build our prototype with the use of real, clean, fresh and authentic ingredients (such as free from an allergen, no pesticide/chemicals/toxins, non-GMO, gluten-free, organic, vegetarian, gluten-free, and minimally processed) without compromising on sensory appeal. Our prototype, built by our formulation scientists, will ensure to present 'NO LIST' includes Parabens, Sulfate, Petroleum, Phthalates, mineral oil, talc, BHA, formaldehyde, paraffin, silicone and more

Clean Label

No complex labelling of disgusting ingredients in the formulation. We offer clean labelling with maximum transparency around any health claims by replacing fewer desirable ingredients with label-friendly ingredients.

Sensory and Shelf Life

Our prototype meets your sensory within the sphere of physical and scientific possibility by using a unique combination of ingredients without negatively affecting their colour, taste, texture and shelf life.

Regulatory

A prototype that meets the regulatory requirement that governs food processing, including those established by local and international regulations (e.g., FDA and EU regulations )

Science-Based Nutrition

An evidence-based prototype that is specifically built based on science to meet the targeted consumer's needs. In this case, the development of skin whitening and depigmentation products demands the inhibition of tyrosinase and melanosome transfer. Our team of nutritionists and biomedical and food scientists are working together to discover new bioactive molecules that have increased potency and therapeutic effects on depigmentation and skin lightening.

Keeping this, our formulation scientists develop products rich in antioxidants, including botanicals

Free Radical trapping agents: Glycyrrhizin acid Inhibition of melanosome transfer: Linoleic acid Epidermal turnover accelerant: Liquirtin, salicylic acid, glycolic acid, lactic acid, retinoids, thioctic acid, vitamin E and Vitamin C. Tyrosine inhibition: Hydroquinone, mequinol, arbutin, azelaic acid, kojic acid, ellagic acid, resveratrol, oxyresveratrol, Other foods that prevent acne: Kefir (Probiotic-rich food), moringa, Nettles, dark berries, peppermint, pumpkin seeds, Brazil nut, tomatoes, watercress, water, fennel, oat milk, red grapes, beetroot, tofu, brown rice, legumes, kale, avocado, garlic, alfalfa sprouts, broccoli, artichoke, eggs, burdock, cottage cheese, green tea, sweet potato, acai, mackerel, salmon, oysters, and pumpkin seeds and many more.

We research the functional ingredients to achieve nutritargeting that can go through systemic circulation in active forms, distributed to all skin compartments, including sebum, subcutaneous fat, dermis, and epidermis is more efficient than applying cosmetics. We work with manufacturers, dermatologists and physicians to test the scientific veracity of the claims.

Forms of delivery

Our team can assist you in developing skin-whitening products in the form of snacks, chocolates, beverages, soups, and gummies, which is a move away from capsules and tablets. We offer nutricosmetics in pill, tablet, gummies, jelly form, sachets forms, and liquid and other food formats.
