The application of collagen peptides is expanding beyond traditional skin and collagen health into broader fields such as sports nutrition, bone and joint health, hair and scalp care, and pharmaceutical dosage forms. We cordially welcome buyers, brand owners, and R&D partners from China and abroad to visit booth H2-J49 to sample products, discuss formulation solutions, and connect for global supply chain cooperation.

Three Core Ingredients to Be Featured at This Exhibition

01 - Small-Molecule Collagen Peptide (Specially for Protein Water)

Product Highlights: Developed specifically for liquid applications such as protein water and sports nutrition beverages, produced using targeted enzymatic hydrolysis, multi-stage membrane separation, and a proprietary deodorization process. Protein content greater than or equal to 95%, molecular weight less than or equal to 1000 Da, with precisely controllable small molecular size. The solution is clear and transparent after dissolution, with a mild odor, excellent stability in liquid systems, and minimal turbidity or sedimentation - ideal for clean-label requirements. Applicable to protein water, functional beverages, oral liquids, and sports nutrition foods, targeting both the "oral nutrition" and "sports nutrition" hot tracks, helping brands create differentiated liquid protein products.

R&D & Literature References:

* Process verification: To address the industry pain point of turbidity and sedimentation in liquid peptide applications, Hainan Huayan has completed a systematic cause analysis, and by optimizing enzymatic hydrolysis and membrane filtration processes, has enhanced long-term stability of liquid systems at the molecular level, delivering a mature technical solution for protein water products.
* Enterprise standard endorsement: Huayan's enterprise standard for Liquid Collagen Peptide specifies a molecular weight of
* Published literature: Multiple randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies explore the biological performance of low-molecular-weight collagen peptides [1-3]. Studies on collagen tripeptide (300-500 Da) indicate that, compared with ordinary collagen peptides and amino acids, it exhibits research-level characteristics in absorption, with basic research reporting related to moisturizing and promotion of collagen and hyaluronic acid synthesis [4].

02 - Tuna Bone Powder (Specially for Liquid Calcium)

Product Highlights: A new-generation deep-sea biological calcium source developed for liquid calcium formulations, sourced from deep-sea tuna bones. With a calcium-to-phosphorus ratio of 2:1, close to the natural proportion of human bone, it retains the natural hydroxyapatite structure. Addressing industry pain points of traditional calcium sources - easy sedimentation, stratification, strong fishy odor, and poor formulation compatibility - it has been systematically optimized across five dimensions: raw material purity, water-solubility stability, shelf-life performance, formulation compatibility, and nutritional suitability. It performs stably in liquid systems, helping reduce stabilizer addition and meeting clean-label development needs. Applicable to mid-to-high-end liquid calcium, calcium drops, children's oral liquids, bone nutrition beverages for middle-aged and elderly, and calcium products for pregnancy and lactation, and can be flexibly combined with vitamin D3, chondroitin, and other ingredients, with supporting technical services for formulation adjustment and sample production.

R&D & Literature References:

* Animal studies: Mouse feeding comparison experiments in the literature show that, under experimental conditions, tuna bone calcium powder demonstrates differences in calcium absorption rate, calcium retention rate, and femoral calcium content compared with calcium carbonate [5].
* Cell-level studies: Tuna bone collagen peptides and their calcium chelates, under cell experiment conditions, show effects related to osteoblast proliferation, differentiation, and mineralization, providing foundational mechanistic reference for formulation development of this ingredient [6].
* Overseas industry literature: Overseas industry literature notes that fish bone-derived hydroxyapatite has experimental data related to calcium absorption, making deep-sea biological calcium sources an important direction for liquid calcium formulation development [7].

03 - Keratin Peptide

Product Highlights: A distinctive active peptide ingredient produced through bio-enzymatic hydrolysis, rich in cysteine and other key amino acids, with small peptide molecular weight and good solubility. Keratin is an important structural protein of hair, skin, and nails. Perming, dyeing, UV exposure, and other external factors cause keratin loss, leading to changes in hair condition. This ingredient focuses on the hair and skin nutrition track, suitable for multiple dosage forms such as dietary supplements and solid beverages, and can be combined with collagen peptides to help brands create differentiated formulations for oral nutrition.

R&D & Literature References:

* Third-party subject testing: Hainan Huayan's keratin peptide solid beverage completed a third-party human trial - 30 adults with hair loss concerns took it orally for 12 consecutive weeks, with results showing a 60.58% reduction in hair fall count, 10.53% increase in hair density, 12.56% reduction in hair parting area, and 6.68% improvement in hairline distance (P
