A protection that is always active

Herbs, minerals, vitamins and all the nutraceutical products have to be carefully processed to maintain their fundamental properties. At the same time, they often feature challenging characteristics such as low flowability, high abrasiveness, low compressibility or high percentage of fine particles.
Over several years, IMA Active has conducted in-depth research into the critical areas of nutraceutical manufacturing and developed a wide range of dedicated technological solutions. Machines are designed to provide superior versatility, are easy both to operate and maintain, and ensure reliability, efficiency and accuracy even with the most difficult products. Particular care has been taken to build sustainable machines with low servicing and running costs and assuring a cleaner working environment.
Qualified specialists and skilled engineers at the IMA Active Competence Center are available for support, product testing and process set-up.

IMA Active Competence Center

The nutraceutical manufacturing process has precise requirements and guidelines for product quality. Thanks to the know-how gained over the past five decades, the IMA Active Competence Center can help nutraceutical companies accelerate the R&D development process, optimise and customise production processes and conduct trials in an innovative way.

Your project, processed with care

In nutraceutical production, precision in processing is crucial to prevent ingredient segregation and contamination, ensuring the product integrity. The effectiveness of the final product depends not only on its formulation but also on the ability of the processing system to adapt to its specific characteristics. Omas Tecnosistemi designs and manufactures fully integrated, customizable processing solutions that guarantee consistency and quality at every stage. Every step – designing the machine to the carpentry of individual components – is managed internally, ensuring seamless integration and absolute control over the entire process. With decades of expertise, Omas Tecnosistemi provides manufacturers with the flexibility and reliability needed to meet the highest standards, delivering tailored solutions that preserve the purity and efficacy of every product.

Technologies that bring a product to life

A nutraceutical product relies on the benefits it brings to the person who uses it and trusts in its efficacy. Developed in one of the world’s most demanding industries, where production is subject to the highest standards, IMA Life technologies preserve the integrity and beneficial effect of those products. Amidst a growing health-oriented culture paying special attention to the product, the approach adopted by IMA Life aims at fulfilling the manufacturer’s business objectives while offering packaging solutions that keep the product’s nutritive and therapeutic properties unaltered. IMA Life provides a personalised response for each requirement, trustworthy advice and cooperation to help customers reach their specific targets within the context of an ongoing partnership. A full range of flexible, dynamic solutions is available to support a customer’s business objectives in a fast-evolving market.

The value of safety

The safety and effectiveness of dietary supplements, natural remedies or alternative medicine can often depend upon adequate packaging. Without the proper handling of packaging materials, the ingredients themselves are vulnerable to breakdown and contamination. IMA Safe, which includes IMA Swiftpack, IMA North America (IMA Nova), IMA Safe Comadis, IMA PG, Perfect Pack, Omas Tecnosistemi and IMA Sarong, designs and manufactures complete primary and secondary packaging lines and offers a wide range of equipment and technical solutions for nutraceutical products. IMA Safe equipment is reliable, easy to use, requires very little maintenance and can also supply eco-friendly solutions, including the use of recycled packaging material, which reduce the ecological footprint.

Care, attention and understanding

Packaging not only plays a functional role in protecting, conserving and transporting the product. It also serves an informative purpose and frequently contains data to protect against counterfeiting, which is actually not seen by the consumer. At IMA EOL, the end-of-line hub made up of four companies – BFB, Ciemme, Mespic and Phoenix – the most comprehensive range of secondary packaging machines and label application systems currently available on the market are designed, developed and built. Expertise in specific areas and technologies are the backbone of an expert environment at the disposal of the nutraceutical sector. Flexibility, customised solutions and engineering capabilities, together with a highly professional worldwide service network, are the ingredients which help ensure customers gain a notable competitive advantage.
