Ecotrend BlogLike with most pioneers, the founding of Hyalogic began when two friends, Darren and Mark, who had been working as respiratory therapists in the home health industry, had an idea to try something new. Their goal was to create a way to help their patients with better mobility. Their search led them to look at an alternative to glucosamine for joint health. As fate would have it, a friend told them about a molecule—Hyaluronic Acid—a remarkable naturally occurring lubricant found in nearly every part of the human body. Hyaluronic Acid (HA) works to keep the body’s joints healthy, cushioned and mobile, but that the body produces less of it as we age. Darren and Mark wondered, could supplementing the body with this water-loving molecule deliver the improved mobility results they were looking for? Many rounds of research and testing resulted in daily amazement and the creation of a liquid Hyaluronic Acid product that delivered real joint health benefits. Hyaluronic Acid was not a gimmick; it was science. In 2000, Darren and Mark sold their respiratory health business and co-founded Hyalogic™. Hyalogic became the first to produce the first oral liquid Hyaluronic Acid for supplementation. What happened next surprised the Hyalogic co-founders. Shortly after releasing their first liquid oral Hyaluronic Acid joint product, consumers began reporting a myriad of “fountain of youth” benefits beyond joint health. A recurring theme was developing in the reports customers were giving. Hyaluronic Acid was not only helping joint mobility, but it was also supporting healthy hair and skin textures of the users—and users were excited about it. Customers began asking if Hyaluronic Acid could be added to shampoo, lip balm, creams, lotions, and other products. Hyalogic launched an extensive research endeavor that led to the creation of both health and beauty products formulated using Hyaluronic Acid. Hyalogic went on to develop a full line of joint health and beauty products all using Hyaluronic Acid. Today, Hyalogic has more than 50 Hyaluronic Acid -based products for humans and animals. Hyalogic carries over 50 products focused on maintaining healthy lifestyles. They are an innovative leader in the types of products they manufacture and offer expert information about those products. Their staff is dedicated to educating store personnel and consumers about the history, technical information and uses of our products. They maintain a substantial promise to comply with all regulatory standards when it comes to their products and do not make false medical claims regarding use, efficacy, and results. Hyalogic carries that same dedicated awareness to their packaging. The materials used in some of their packaging are designed to lower their carbon footprint intentionally. Boxes are made with clean material and are recyclable after use. They chose to use soy bean inks in an attempt to eliminate the toxic glues needed to assemble these boxes as well as the product information inserts, and boxes are made with a folded design. This design allows the product information to be printed on the interior of the package, saving the need for additional materials. The tubes, bottles, and containers are made from recyclable plastic materials. This enables the consumer to recycle the container at his/her local recycling plant upon finishing use of the product.
