What is a patented asset?

A protected technical innovation

A patented active ingredient is a product or process whose technical innovation addresses an existing technical problem and has been recognized and protected by a patent. The latter guarantees the exclusive monopoly on the exploitation of the invention in one or more given territories for a maximum period of 20 years, preventing other companies from using, producing, or marketing this invention without prior authorization. In the world of nutricosmetics and skin care, patented active ingredients play a key role in product effectiveness and differentiation.

Why patent an asset?

• Valuing innovation : The patent recognizes investment in research and development (R&D).

Evoleum formulas systematically contain patented active ingredients.

For example, ceramosides™ , patented lipids present in Longévité , Oxygénation and Radiance drinkable cosmetic care products , aim to restore and maintain the integrity of the skin barrier. They alone constitute 40% to 50% of the lipids present in the stratum corneum of the skin

• Offer unique quality : Patented active ingredients are often derived from advanced technologies and are a guarantee of effectiveness.

The patented phytosomal technology present in the Source capsule treatment aims to ensure a “functional solid dispersion” and to allow the natural compounds to interact effectively with the intestinal ecosystem in terms of absorption.

• Protecting know-how : Companies can maintain a competitive advantage in the market for up to 20 years and can conquer new markets by extending the patent to other territories or by assigning the exploitation license.

Examples of patented active ingredients in nutricosmetics:

• Wheat Ceramides : Reconstitute the skin barrier and thus limit trans-epidermal water loss which most often occurs at night, when the skin is thinner. Present in Evoleum's Oxygénation , Radiance and Longévité formulas.

• Leucoselect® Phytosome® : Ensures stable dispersion between phospholipids and grape seed extract, while increasing intestinal absorption of the botanical extract, with the aim of increasing its antioxidant properties tenfold. Present in the formula of Evoleum's SOURCE complex.

• Vitamin C (Liposomal Pureway-C®) : In its liposomal form, it ensures better intestinal absorption than traditional vitamin C. In addition to its antioxidant properties, it has healing and neurogenesis properties. Present in the Evoleum SOURCE complex formula.

How to recognize a patented asset?

A patented active ingredient is often identified by a specific mention on the product label, accompanied by the patent number or a "Patented" logo. This guarantees the traceability and authenticity of the patent.

Benefits for the consumer

Proven effectiveness : Patented active ingredients have often been clinically tested to demonstrate their performance.

Example: The ceramosides used in Evoleum formulas were the subject of two randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical studies on 60 and 72 women respectively with skin showing signs of aging.

• • The first study demonstrated a significant improvement in the reduction of transepidermal water loss of 16% and a significant increase in skin hydration of +25% after 15 days for women taking the supplement compared to the first day (D0). After 15 days of taking the supplement, the subjects had a significant increase in skin elasticity of +17% compared to D0.

  • In the second study, the results demonstrated a significant improvement in skin smoothness of +10% and a significant decrease in skin roughness of 10% compared to D0 after 56 days.
