The benchmark in optimal botanical extraction
Euromed has optimised aqueous botanical extraction through an innovative, patented, sustainable and safe process, the Pure-Hydro process, that delivers environmentally friendly, high-quality extracts with optimal concentrations of active compounds for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications.
I
n the evolving landscape of botanical extracts, consumers increasingly demand transparency, sustainability and premium- quality ingredients. Responding to this need, Euromed has developed the Pure-Hydro process, an advanced extraction methodology that sets new standards for purity, efficiency and eco-conscious manufacturing. The Pure-Hydro process harnesses the intrinsic properties of ultra- pure water and tangential flow filtration to sustainably isolate bioactive compounds. It uses water purified through a double-stage reverse osmosis system that removes impurities and minerals, resulting in water that maximises extraction performance while minimising environmental impact.
Removing undesirables
A key innovation is the tangential membrane filtration, which selectively retains valuable phytochemicals such as polyphenols and flavonoids while removing undesirable components and lower molecular weight substances like sugars and salts. This results in a clean solvent-free, concentrated natural extract with superior bioavailability and efficacy. Unlike traditional extraction methods that often involve harsh chemicals or solvents, the Pure-Hydro process operates at ambient temperatures, significantly
reducing energy consumption. This efficiency is further enhanced using renewable energy sources, including photovoltaic systems, which help minimise the overall footprint. By eliminating the need for conventional concentration techniques reliant on natural gas combustion, the Pure-Hydro process marks a significant step forward in sustainable manufacturing practices. The Pure-Hydro process is integrated into essential production lines at Euromed, including the Mediterranean botanical extracts category. Production is strategically located in the Murcia region of Spain, known for its rich diversity of Mediterranean plants. This proximity ensures optimal raw material freshness and quality while reducing carbon emissions from transportation. The use of locally harvested ingredients highlights Euromed’s strong commitment to traceability, transparency and sustainability – values that are increasingly important to consumers worldwide.
From the Mediterranean Euromed’s ingredients in the category of Mediterranean fruit and vegetable extracts include Spisar, a spinach extract, processed using this extraction process and standardised to phytoecdysteroids. It has shown significant improvements in muscle
strength and fitness in subjects aged 50-plus. Euromed’s Wellemon lemon extract is standardised to the highly soluble citrus flavanone eriocitrin, overcoming the low bioavailability of flavanones such as hesperidin, and it offers potential benefits for cardiovascular, vascular, cognitive and nutricosmetic applications.
CuberUp is an innovative cucumber extract, with clinically proven effects as an effective solution for managing joint pain, improving mobility and supporting muscle function in adults with varying degrees of knee joint discomfort, demonstrating efficacy at a daily dose of 20mg. perFix is the latest ingredient in this category of Mediterranean extracts, clinically proven to effectively reduce body fat, preserve muscle mass, and support overall body wellness.
On checkpoints
By implementing a vertically integrated model, Euromed ensures minimal variability and high batch-to-batch consistency. Rigorous control and validation of equipment, raw materials and standardisation checkpoints throughout the process guarantee reproducible results. When targeting specific compounds, scientific validation through clinical research becomes essential to support safety and efficacy. By merging technological innovation with environmental responsibility, Euromed’s Pure-Hydro process sets a new benchmark in botanical extraction. It not only aligns with current demands for sustainability and traceability but also delivers consistently pure and effective ingredients that meet the most stringent quality standards. ●
