Want to know how collagen works and what it can do for your brand? In this blog post, you’ll read about the scientific evidence, practical benefits, and market opportunities.

What is collagen and why is it so important?

Collagen is a natural protein found in all animals.
It ensures strong joints, elastic skin, and a supple coat.
From middle age onward, the body produces less collagen, leading to more frequent complaints such as stiff joints or a dull coat.

Collagen supplements for animals address this deficiency.
They provide small fragments of collagen, called peptides, which the body uses to repair cartilage, skin, and connective tissue.
In short: collagen helps animals move more smoothly and look healthier.

Hydro P Premium: pure, soluble and proven effective

A natural base

Sonac’s Hydro P Premium is a type I collagen hydrolyzate.
It is produced from high-quality pork bones through a controlled enzymatic process.
This creates a pure, safe, and easily absorbed product with a neutral taste.

Thanks to its fine powder form, Hydro P Premium dissolves easily in water or oil.
You can incorporate it into soft chews, powders, liquids, pastes, or other supplement forms. Ideal for private label product development.

Scientific substantiation

Research shows that collagen hydrolysate improves mobility and reduces pain in dogs with osteoarthritis.
In horses, it supports tendon and joint strength, and in cats, it contributes to healthy skin.
This translates to less stiffness, increased comfort, and a better quality of life for animals of all ages.
