Description
A polyphenolic extract from Strawberry fruit (Fragaria ananassa), containing pelargonidin-based anthocyanins and ellagitannins as the principal active fractions. Used in cosmetic skincare, beauty-from-within supplements, and functional food applications positioned around skin health and antioxidant support.
Pink to dark red free-flowing powder. Highly water-soluble. Anthocyanin color is stable in acidic applications but degrades in alkaline conditions.

Introduction
The cultivated Strawberry (Fragaria ananassa) is a hybrid first developed in 18th-century France from American and South American Fragaria species. The fruit has emerged as a leading source of consumer-recognized natural polyphenols, with characteristic pelargonidin-3-glucoside anthocyanins responsible for the red color and a distinctive ellagitannin profile in common with raspberry and cloudberry.
Industrial production proceeds by spray-drying of strawberry juice or by hydroalcoholic extraction of whole fruit followed by concentration and standardization to defined polyphenol content.
Recognized as a permitted food ingredient by the U.S. FDA, the European Food Safety Authority, and equivalent regulators worldwide.
Clinical evidence supports applications in cardiovascular markers, inflammation, and post-meal glucose response at supplement doses. The compound class supports skin-health positioning through documented effects on UV-induced oxidative stress and collagen markers in human studies.
Strategic positioning targets premium nutricosmetic and beauty-from-within supplements specifically, with secondary applications in functional foods and natural colorants.
