Liposomal Beta-Carotene is Beta-Carotene — the orange carotenoid pigment that the body can convert to vitamin A — encapsulated in plant-based phosphatidylcholine (PC) liposomes on Hoynoza's HNOVA™ platform. The vesicles are nano-sized, 50 to under 200 nm, and are supplied as an ingredient for formulators and manufacturers.
Free Beta-Carotene presents a formulation challenge: it is insoluble in water and degrades with light, heat and oxygen. In a liposome, Beta-Carotene is carried in the phospholipid bilayer, which is designed to protect the active and let it disperse evenly in the finished product.

Phospholipid bilayer
Fat-soluble actives are held within the bilayer, which lets them disperse in water-based products.
How the HNOVA™ liposome addresses the specific handling problem of Beta-Carotene.
It is insoluble in water and degrades with light, heat and oxygen.
Free Beta-CaroteneBeta-Carotene is entrapped in the phospholipid bilayer of a 50 to under 200 nm plant-based phosphatidylcholine liposome.
HNOVA™ nano-liposomeDispersible in water-based systems without relying on harsh solvents.
Designed outcomeEvery Liposomal Beta-Carotene batch shares the same engineered advantages as the rest of the portfolio.
Improves absorption, increases cellular uptake and maximises systemic availability.
Protects sensitive actives from oxidation, degradation, gastric enzymes and environmental stress.
Nano-sized liposomes (50 to <200 nm) ensure precise delivery to target tissues and cells.
Enhances solubility of poorly water-soluble actives for better formulation flexibility.
Developed using plant-based phosphatidylcholine (PC) for a premium, sustainable, clean-label delivery.
What changes when the same active is carried in a liposome.
| Free Beta-Carotene | Liposomal Beta-Carotene (HNOVA™) | |
|---|---|---|
| Dispersion in water | Poor — tends to clump, float or settle out. | ✓Carried as 50 to <200 nm vesicles that stay dispersed in water-based systems. |
| Protection of the active | Exposed to oxygen, light and the surrounding medium. | ✓Held inside a lipid vesicle, away from the bulk medium. |
| Formulation challenge | It is insoluble in water and degrades with light, heat and oxygen. | ✓Addressed by encapsulation in the phospholipid bilayer of the liposome. |
| Carrier | None — the raw material on its own. | ✓Plant-based phosphatidylcholine (PC). |
| Label | Varies by excipient system. | ✓Plant-based, clean-label lipid source. |

Liposomal Beta-Carotene is Beta-Carotene — the orange carotenoid pigment that the body can convert to vitamin A — carried inside plant-based phosphatidylcholine liposomes. Lipologics supplies it as a nano-liposomal ingredient of 50 to under 200 nm, built on the HNOVA™ platform.
Free Beta-Carotene presents a formulation challenge: it is insoluble in water and degrades with light, heat and oxygen. Carrying it in the phospholipid bilayer of a nano-liposome is designed to protect the active and to disperse it evenly in the finished product.
Typical routes are liquid liposomal concentrates, shots and drops, and dried forms for capsules and sachets. Format availability is confirmed per active — ask us for the format you need.
No. Lipologics supplies Liposomal Beta-Carotene as an ingredient for formulators, manufacturers and product developers — not as a finished consumer product.
A specification sheet, Certificate of Analysis and technical dossier are available on request. Particle size and encapsulation efficiency are confirmed per batch.
Liposomal Beta-Carotene is supplied by Lipologics, the liposomal ingredient brand of Hoynoza Technologies Pvt Ltd, Bengaluru, India. Use the contact page to discuss specifications, samples and programme requirements.
