Advanced Bioavailability Through Upcycled Tuna Peptides

The core of the portfolio is high-purity hydrolysed Type I collagen peptide extracted exclusively from upcycled tuna skin. Produced using proprietary enzymatic hydrolysis, the ultra-low molecular weight (<2,000 Da) ensures exceptional bioavailability, rapid digestion, and optimal cellular absorption. Designed specifically for nutricosmetic and joint health formulations, clinical research demonstrates its effectiveness in improving skin elasticity, increasing dermal hydration, and supporting connective tissue repair.

 

Comprehensive Suite of Diverse Marine Ingredients

Beyond tuna collagen, the expanded ingredient suite integrates a versatile lineup of marine-derived nutrients tailored for broad health applications. The portfolio incorporates premium tilapia collagen peptides, high-DHA refined tuna oils, cod liver oils, and bioavailable bone calcium derived from tuna frame upcycling. Each ingredient undergoes rigorous refining processes to deliver neutral taste, clear cold-water solubility, and superior sensory profiles across capsules, functional beverages, power blends, and nutrition bars.

Sustainable Valorization and SeaChange® Commitment

Underpinning the portfolio rollout is Thai Union's strict commitment to full fish valorization through its SeaChange® sustainability roadmap. By transforming side-stream co-products into high-value functional nutrients, TUI actively reduces marine processing waste and carbon footprints. Every batch offers complete dock-to-door traceability, assuring commercial brand partners that all underlying ocean biomass is ethically sourced from certified, sustainably managed global fisheries.

 

Meeting Surging Global Demand for Clean-Label Wellness

Consumer preferences are rapidly shifting toward traceable, non-bovine, non-porcine collagen sources driven by dietary restrictions and sustainability awareness. TUI's marine ingredients directly address these demands by providing non-GMO, halal-certified, and allergen-controlled options. Commercial brand partners gain access to fully standardized raw materials that streamline supply chain logistics while allowing for strong product differentiation in competitive anti-aging, sports nutrition, and preventive wellness markets.
