Bioiberica, a global life science company, has received NutraStrong Collagen Verification for Collavant n2, its native (undenatured) type II collagen which provides joint support for dogs and cats at a low dose of just 0.4 mg/kg body weight or 25ppm in feed.
The company is spotlighting this achievement at Interzoo (Hall 7 Booth 7-243), signalling that Collavant n2 meets the highest standards of purity, source integrity, manufacturing excellence and claim substantiation, while also helping pet supplement brands to elevate their product positioning with tangible, independently-verified claims.
Raising the bar in pet collagen innovation
The NutraStrong Collagen Verified program, developed by SGS Nutrasource, is the first independent certification system dedicated to evaluating and verifying the identity, source, safety and quality of collagen ingredients and products – ensuring that consumers receive what is claimed on the label. By securing this recognition, Collavant n2 offers pet supplement brands a clear point of differentiation in a crowded market and also reinforces Bioiberica’s commitment to transparency and scientific integrity.
“Certifications like this are already well-established in human nutrition categories such as omega-3s and probiotics, but are much rarer for collagen, and especially for ingredients intended for the pet health market,” comments Xavier Garcia, Business Unit Director Animal Health & Plant Health at Bioiberica. “Securing this prestigious accreditation for our Collavant n2 ingredient for pet joint support marks a major milestone for us, and represents a significant advancement in ingredient quality standards for pet health. We are excited to share more details with our partners and colleagues at Interzoo 2026.”
The NutraStrong Collagen Verified program is further endorsed by the Collagen Stewardship Alliance (CSA), reflecting growing industry alignment around the need for trusted and effective collagen solutions. Commenting on Bioiberica’s accomplishment, Len Monheit, Executive Director at the CSA, says: "The CSA’s mission is to foster responsible growth of the global collagen category, including the pet nutrition sector, and the Collagen Verified program plays a vital role in this effort by recognising suppliers and brands that prioritise quality, efficacy and transparency. Congratulations to Bioiberica for being the first to meet this rigorous standard in the pet health space and helping set a new benchmark for the industry."
