Our purpose

At Expanscience, we help individuals shape their well-being.

We act to contribute to the well-being of babies and children and to parental peace of mind; we also aim to help individuals suffering from osteoarthritis to continue doing what they love, for as long as possible.

We believe that human well-being cannot be separated from the health of the planet. We want to have a positive impact on the world around us. Although each of us has a role to play, it’s by working together that we’ll meet our goals!

Our responsible supply chain in Peru with Deshidratados Tropicales Avocado, maracuja and maca are part of the composition of many Expanscience products and active ingredients. These raw materials come from sustainable, fair-trade crops, most notably in Peru.
