In-house research and development

Our passion and expertise lie in developing high-quality products with well-thought-out compositions, offering sophisticated and functional skin care.

We emphasize careful selection of raw materials, balanced formulations, safety of use, and respect for sustainability and environmental protection. Each product is created with the aim of offering modern care that combines a scientific approach, attention to detail, and a high standard of quality.
At the heart of the company is the laboratory — a place where innovative ideas are born, new procedures are verified, and products are created that connect research, functionality, and a refined approach to modern care.

Combining modern science, research, and nature

We believe that the future of quality cosmetics and dietary supplements relies not only on the latest scientific knowledge but also on a sensitive connection to natural traditions.
Therefore, we return to our roots and rediscover the potential of traditional and lesser-known local herbs, plants, and other natural resources for use in dermatology, cosmetics, and nutrition.
These resources are explored through research projects led by the founder of the NEOBOTANICS® brand, biotechnologist and expert in natural active substances, doc. Ing. Petr Kaštánek, Ph.D. We extract valuable functional ingredients from them and verify their biological activity using modern analytical methods.

Bioactive, thoughtfully formulated ingredients

In many of our dietary supplements and cosmetic products, we use our own original and carefully prepared extracts.
Where appropriate for formulation, we work with bioactive substances in the form of liposomal or nano-micellar systems, prepared using our own NEOLIPO® and NEOMICELLE® processes.
These approaches allow us to design products with an emphasis on stability, quality, and a thoughtful use of active ingredients within the overall formulation.

Extreme origin, exceptional potential

In the development of dermo-cosmetic products, we also work with bioactive substances obtained from plants or microorganisms that naturally occur in extreme conditions.
It is precisely in such environments that these organisms create specific protective mechanisms and a natural spectrum of substances that help them cope with environmental stressors.
This unique natural origin is a valuable inspiration for us in creating products designed for modern, functional, and targeted skin care.

Double synergy

The philosophy of the NEOBOTANICS® brand, alongside scientific development inspired by natural bioactive substances, is also based on the principle of so-called double synergy.
The first level is the thoughtful combination of individual active ingredients within each product so that they together create a harmonious and functional whole.
The second level is the connection between external and internal care — that is, between dermo-cosmetics and carefully formulated dietary supplements within the broad NEOBOTANICS® portfolio.
It is precisely this comprehensive approach that characterizes our brand: science, nature, and thoughtful care in a refined, modern, and premium form.

Neobotanics Vegan Collagen Alternative + 20 Essences herbal drink, vegan collagen alternative 270 g

VEGAN COLLAGEN ALTERNATIVE + 20 ESSENCES with natural orange - red grapefruit flavor

270g / 30 servings, food supplement

Instant mix for preparing a drink that serves as an alternative to animal collagen. With natural orange - red grapefruit flavor.

ACTIVE INGREDIENTS:

  • Fermented plant amino acids vollagen® 1000 mg
  • Chicory fiber inulin 4850 mg
  • Hyaluronic acid 70 mg
  • Liposomal vitamin C
  • MSM
  • 6 herbal extracts
  • 8 B-complex vitamins
  • Zinc

 

VEGAN COLLAGEN ALTERNATIVE + 20 ESSENCES is an ideal solution for anyone seeking a plant-based alternative to traditional collagen. It contains 1000 mg of VOLLAGEN® – an amino acid complex with a ratio corresponding to animal collagen, but in a 100% vegan formulation. Plant amino acids are specifically designed in a similar ratio to that found in collagen. Additionally, it is enriched with 20 other active ingredients that collectively support beauty and vitality. Among these, vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin and cartilage. Biotin contributes to the maintenance of normal skin and hair. Zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, aids in the normal function of the immune system, and protects cells from oxidative stress.

VOLLAGEN® is a complex of plant amino acids in the exact ratio found in common animal collagen, as shown in the graph. The difference, however, is that the amino acids are already isolated, allowing the body to absorb them more efficiently. Thanks to its plant origin, VOLLAGEN® is also suitable for vegans and vegetarians.

 

Study and its results

An independent consumer study was conducted over 60 days, during which participants (55 women aged 30-60) consumed 1000 mg of VOLLAGEN daily. The results were evaluated by the independent organization Ayton Global Research (AGR):

  • Improved hydration, firmness, and elasticity of the skin: Most participants reported a visible improvement in skin condition, which was softer, more hydrated, and firmer.
  • Even tone and radiant skin: Respondents observed a more uniform skin tone, increased radiance, and an overall healthier appearance.
  • Fewer wrinkles and reduced under-eye circles: Fine lines and wrinkles appeared less prominent, dark circles diminished, and the skin around the eyes looked fresher.
  • Fewer imperfections: A reduction in the occurrence of acne, minor blemishes, and other skin imperfections was also noted.
  • Stronger nails: Study participants observed a noticeable strengthening of their nails and improved condition.

These results confirm that VOLLAGEN® is a highly effective plant-based alternative to traditional collagen, supporting the health and beauty of the skin and other body tissues.

Vollagen® is an amino acid complex created through an innovative fermentation process. It utilizes plant-based sources, and the entire production is designed from the outset to ensure the resulting product is 100% vegan. This is followed by microencapsulation, which results in a fine powder that dissolves easily and has a very neutral taste and odor.

Effective absorption: Thanks to fermentation and isolation, the amino acids are "pre-digested" and ready for immediate utilization in the body.

Vegan-friendly: The entire process is based purely on plant-based ingredients, making the product suitable for vegans and vegetarians.

No specific taste or smell: Microencapsulation ensures a neutral flavor profile, so Vollagen can be easily added to various dietary supplements or foods.

Preservation of amino acid profile: During production, care is taken to ensure that the ratio of individual amino acids corresponds to what is typically found in animal-derived collagen.

Thanks to this unique combination of fermentation and microencapsulation , the preparation acquires properties comparable to collagen, without the need for animal sources. This makes it a complete, vegan alternative for supporting skin, nails, hair, and overall vitality.

Frequently asked questions

Which of the collagen types I, II, III is more suitable for the skin and which for the joints?

Most people are unaware of the fact, held by many doctors, that type II collagen for joints is not necessarily better than hydrolyzed type I collagen.

Types of collagen in the body:

  • Type I collagenis most abundant in the skin. Products with hydrolyzed type I collagen (for example, from fish skin or beef hide) are therefore associated with improving the elasticity, hydration and appearance of the skin, hair and nails.
  • Type II collagenis a part of joint cartilage. Therefore, it is often stated that collagen peptides prepared from type II collagen are ideal for supporting the musculoskeletal system - e.g. in dietary supplements for athletes or people suffering from joint problems.
  • Type III collagenIt can play a complementary role in supporting tissue and vascular health, but is most often seen in combination with type I.

Although type I collagen is most associated with the skin, it is increasingly appearingevidencethathydrolyzed peptidesobtained from type I collagen are beneficial for the joint system.

Why is type I collagen just as good for joints as type II collagen?

When taking collagen in dietary supplements, collagen breaks down in the digestive tract into individual amino acids and peptides, which the body then uses according to its needs - i.e. for the production of collagen in various tissues (joints, skin, tendons, ligaments, etc.). Therefore, hydrolyzed collagen type I is often used in practice, as it is very well absorbed and can support the regeneration of connective tissues throughout the body.

Hydrolyzed type I collagen (e.g. marine collagen) is used as a building material for various tissues in the body, including joints, after absorption.

The collagens in the Neobotanics range are marine collagen peptides (type I), which are known for their good bioavailability and are suitable for overall support of connective tissues - i.e. skin, tendons, ligaments and joints.

More in the blog articleCollagen Types I, II, III: What for Joints and What for Skin? Myths and Reality

What type of collagen is Neobotanics Collagen?

Neobotanics animal collagens:

They contain Naticol marine fish collagen peptides, which are type I marine collagen peptides.
These are known for their good bioavailability and are suitable for overall support of connective tissues - i.e. skin, tendons, ligaments and joints.

Neobotanics plant collagen:

Vegan collagen alternative + 20 ESSENCESis a plant-based alternative to animal collagen. It contains 1000 mg of VOLLAGEN® – a complex of amino acids in a ratio corresponding to animal collagen, but in a 100% vegan version. The plant-based amino acids are specially designed in a ratio similar to that found in collagen.
