Genosa stands out as a global leader and pioneer in the production and commercialization of supra-recycled natural hydroxytyrosol (Hytolive®) derived from olive fruit. As a true pioneer, Genosa was the first company to introduce high-purity natural hydroxytyrosol extracts derived from olive fruit. Their internationally patented process uses only physical and mechanical methods, ensuring maximum quality and environmental responsibility by avoiding solvents in the extraction of hydroxytyrosol.
This acquisition presents a unique opportunity for Alvinesa Natural Ingredients to further expand its range of ingredients and leverage synergies between both companies to drive innovation and add value to customers.
As part of the integration process, Alvinesa will explore ways to harness Genosa’s expertise and technologies to enhance its current product range.
