Effective June 2025, Alchem Trading is proud to be appointed the exclusive UK & Ireland distributor for Transactiva’s plant-made dermo-cosmetic actives.

About Transactiva

Transactiva is an Italian research-and-development company born from biomedical science and specialised in Plant Molecular Farming (PMF) – a technology that produces high-value peptides and enzymes inside living plants instead of petrochemical reactors or animal tissue. This green approach delivers pharma-grade purity while keeping the supply chain 100 % plant-based and GMO-free.

Why Plant Molecular Farming?

• Clean & vegan: ingredients are grown in rice grains or tobacco leaves, with no animal input or harsh solvents.

• Consistent quality: controlled indoor cultivation means batch-to-batch reliability akin to biotech APIs.

• Lower footprint: vertical farming and mild extraction steps cut water, energy and waste versus traditional synthesis.

What This Means for UK Formulators

• Story-led differentiation – pair cutting-edge efficacy with a credible sustainability narrative that resonates with modern consumers.

• Formulator-friendly – aqueous solutions effective at ≤1 %, compatible with serums, gels, lotions and sprays.

Commitment to Excellence

This partnership reinforces our mission to give cosmetic and personal-care brands access to breakthrough, responsibly sourced actives that help products stand out on shelves and in clinical data sheets alike.
