The legacy of the company is founded on understanding plant chemistry, in particular lipids and more generally secondary metabolites, selecting plants, identifying and extracting molecules with a strong biological activity. Laboratoires Expanscience research has mastered specific technologies, in particular molecular distillation, an environment-friendly process used to separate and concentrate the various components of oils. This technology has positioned the company as the worldwide leader in producing Avocado and Soybean Unsaponifiables.
This expertise has enabled the company to develop innovative skin cosmetic products, cosmetic active ingredients and pharmaceutical products. By focusing its research on plants and their active principles, Laboratoires Expanscience has set strict procurement rules, especially for ASU (Avocado and Soybean Unsaponifiables).
