Stepan Company, Maywood, NJ, has acquired the Clarinol, Marinol and PinnoThin product lines of Lipid Nutrition B.V., formerly a part of IOI Loders Croklaan Group.
The acquired product lines will be integrated into Stepan's Food and Health Specialties business, which will be renamed Stepan Lipid Nutrition.
The acquired products combined with Stepan’s NEOBEE Medium Chain Triglycerides provides a patented portfolio of nutritional oils with a greater offering to customers in the global food, supplement, nutrition and pharmaceutical industries.
Clarinol conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) is currently patented and has been sold as a dietary supplement for more than 10 years as an ingredient to reduce body fat and increase lean muscle mass.
Marinol concentrated omega 3 triglycerides are used in clinical and infant nutritional products to promote cardiovascular and neurological health, while PinnoThin, derived from pine nuts, functions as an appetite suppressant.
Stepan’s Maywood, NJ site will continue to operate the central management of the business with a new Stepan Lipid Nutrition office located near Amsterdam.
