R&D
LINK

A link between research, the primary sector and industrial production.

We work to present a series of unique innovative products that aim to provide their beneficial properties to the body, in a simple, easy and smart way, responding to the requirements of the modern lifestyle.

INNOVATIONS
BIODEGRADABLE CAPSULE NITROGEN SEALING PAPER FILTER WITH OXYGEN BARRIER

95.6% of the capsule biodegrades in water and CO2 within 26 weeks!

The 12GODS capsule is made of cellulose, a specially developed bioplastic, which is made from 62% renewable raw materials.

Its technical additives are biodegradable and environmentally friendly, so it is completely free of aluminum. The oxygen impermeability that characterizes it, enhances the protection of the environment, as it optimizes and reduces the production processes.

It has been certified by Climate Partners as a neutral energy footprint. It is made using energy produced from wind, solar, hydroelectric and biogas, thus contributing to ecological sustainability by sending an important and positive message. Its production process is developed in an oxygen barrier, offering significant economic, but also ecological advantages.

It was certified in December 2017 as OK COMPOST by TÜV Austria / Vincotte, while maintaining international, high quality production of packaging, in accordance with the quality standard ISO 9001 (2015) and the hygiene directive DIN EN15593 / 2008.

A process that maximizes the life of the product.

Airtight sealing in a closed nitrogen environment, inactivates the microbial growth and deterioration of herbs, as it manages to keep the useful and quality elements of herbs unchanged over time, maintaining their taste, color and aroma, fresh until consumption!

Paper filter with oxygen barrier!

The first paper filter for capsules, with oxygen barrier and minimum sealing time 24 months. With the use of the paper filter, our capsule is completely free of aluminum. The filter is made of environmentally friendly polyethylene (PE).

It is completely neutral to the aquifer and decomposes into carbon dioxide and water. Includes an innovative lubricant adhesive that meets DIN CERTCO and BPI requirements for biodegradability and composting, and complies with ASTM D6868 (American Society for Testing and Materials).

HEALTH
CLAIMS
Decoctions with health claims.

An herbal mosaic of well-designed, beneficial drinks.

With a plan to capture the health claims of aromatic and medicinal plants, their utilization as well as their integration in innovative products.

In collaboration with Aroma Hub, we conducted a methodical and thorough research to capture the health claims of aromatic and medicinal plants used by 12GODS and found in the European database. The way, the process and the result were done under the supervision of the EQF, where it certifies the whole process.
