Solution for Formulators
“ThinSol OTFs provide solutions to many challenges common among supplement formulators and brand marketers,” said Aavishkar CEO Dinesh AR, in a press release. “They can help older brands refresh and spur growth, and they can increase consumer engagement for brands that feel stagnant. This is accomplished in part by our ability to source exotic and relevant flavors throughout the globe, improve bioavailability (efficacy) without compromising taste, skillful blending of complementary, synergistic ingredients into a single strip, and sourcing high-grade sustainable packaging materials.”Meeting a Consumer Need
"ThinSol helps fill in often-overlooked needs gaps," Dinesh explained. "For example, individuals who need iron for healthy blood production often encounter uncomfortable side effects from tablets or syrups such as upset stomach and nausea." To help with this, company has microencapsulated iron in the ThinSol, which Dinesh said eliminates the gastro side effects.In addition: “For the 45% of people worldwide who are pill averse, and for those who dislike syrups or sugary chews, oral thin films provide the perfect solution that will greatly enhance compliance. Greatly enhanced compliance improves development of consumer loyalty,” said Anusha Sane, Managing Director, Aavishkar.
Furthermore, Sane added: “ThinSol OTFs reduce the cost per daily dose and economy of scales are more efficient as retail pricing for the strips have become more attractive for consumers.”
