RAWGA is a food technology company that creates a healthcare ecosystem by developing plant-based functional alternatives. It aims to improve the health of individuals and the environment of society by replacing the animal-based Nutrition Supplies market with plant-based materials. It pursues ESG-based sustainability in creating a plant-based industry. As the first project for this, we developed plant-based collagen to replace animal collagen, which accounts for 99.9% of the world. We are operating the supplements brand 'PLANT' in Korea by extracting collagen using organic hibiscus, proving the collagen production effect of plant-based collagen, and commercializing raw materials.

    ANAHEIM--March 7, 2024 : ‘PLANT Collagen’, a vegan collagen brand from South Korea, will make its U.S. debut at the Natural Product Expo West, which takes place from March 14-16, 2024, in Anaheim. These products, Grand Prix winner for raw materials at the 2022 SIAL Paris Innovation Awards can be tasted at Booth 2107.

    Due to the growing vegan market, many manufacturers have developed plant-based collagen. But there has been controversy that collagen can’t be vegan as existing plant-based collagen have not met the all of the following conditions.
     1. Containing amino acids
     2. The supply of precursors
     3. Indicator of collagen
     4. Tripeptide Structure with Three Amino Acids Bound
    VC-H1, the world's first plant-based collagen developed by Rawga, is the first collagen to meet the above conditions.
    It is produced by hydrolyzing the glycoprotein constituting the plant's outer wall with enzymes and then purifying it with high-purity water-soluble glycoproteins.
    VC-H1 is an amino acid compound of plant proteins similar to animal collagen and is the same as the mechanism of existing animal collagen that supplies collagen to the human body because it supplies proteoglucan, a precursor to collagen.
    It contains 'hydroxyproline', an indicator of collagen, and has a tripeptide structure that combines three amino acids,
    For these reasons, VC-H1 is the only healthy alternative from the collagen produced in existing animals or fish.

    Our brand ‘PLANT Collagen’ has six products in three formats: powder, liquid, and jelly. Plant Collagen Kombucha (15 sticks, powder), Plant Collagen Biotin (15 sticks, liquid, jelly), Plant Collagen Vitamin D (15 sticks, jelly), and Plant Collagen Probiotics (15 sticks, liquid, jelly), as well as vegan collagen raw ingredients for manufacturers.

    " VC-H1 is the product created by a research team with 35 years of research experience," says Raw Kim, Rawga's CEO. "We've been working on this project since 2017."

    ‘PLANT Collagen’ is available at Hyundai Department Stores and Charmacist pharmacies in South Korea.

    PLANT Collagen was launched in November 2022 and is a plant-based, sustainable health and nutrition brand that has quickly emerged as a delicious and healthy collagen solution with a 2in1 concept that combines the easy-to-eat benefits of plant collagen with the antioxidants inherent in plants, and adds functional ingredients to plant collagen.

    PLANT Collagen revolutionised the collagen category with its unique plant-based collagen formula and beautiful packaging. Since launch, influencers and consumers alike have raved about the delicious collagen, the variety of products, and the brand's sustainable and thoughtful approach to the planet. As a result, PLANT Collagen products have been selling out, and we've launched product after product to meet consumer needs.

    Raw Kim, CEO of PLANT Collagen, said, "The PLANT Collagen brand is a consumer-friendly formulation of plant-based collagen that was created after seven years of research and development. We are excited to use Expo West as an opportunity to expand our offerings and officially introduce PLANT Collagen to the industry. We look forward to sharing our products and celebrating the rapid expansion of the line at the first PLANT Collagen booth. "

    From 14 to 16 March , attendees visiting the PLANT Collagen booth at Natural Products Expo West will have the opportunity to try all four products - PLANT Collagen Combucha, PLANT Collagen Biotin, PLANT Collagen VitaminD and PLANT Collagen Probiotics.

  • ANAHEIM-March 16, 2024 : RAWGA, which has developed the world's first plant-derived vegan collagen, has successfully completed the Natural Products Expo West 2024

    RAWGA 's plant-based collagen has attracted attention for three main reasons
    • Higher absorption due to its lower molecular weight compared to animal collagen
    • It is derived from organic plants, making it safer than animal collagen and easier to consume with no off-odour
    • Contains antioxidants (polyphenols, flavonoids) inherent in plants
    Many buyers praised RAWGA 's plant-based collagen for being collagen, which is important because some consumers use plant-based amino acids as a substitute for collagen, and for being nutritionally superior due to its antioxidant content, which is more important because it is derived from plants.

    Visitors who discovered the brand's PLANT Collagen through the Product Showcase were surprised by its delicious taste and noted that it is derived from organic plants, making it safer, healthier and more sustainable to consume.

    Raw Kim, CEO of RAWGA, said: "Natural Products Expo West was the best place to meet buyers for in-depth discussions about collagen than any other show. We are pleased that they recognised the value of plant-based collagen and showed interest. We will continue to showcase our new products and prove our value at NPEW."
