Formulation Development
Matrix design from first principles: carbohydrate ratio modelling, gel-system selection, osmolality and pH control. Bench iterations documented to specification-sheet standard.
SPORTS NUTRITION RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT · LONDON, UK
VO2 Sport Limited is an R&D entity developing clean-label endurance nutrition matrices. Evidence-based formulation work, engineered around the physiological demands of the seasoned endurance athlete and the pursuit of a consistent personal best.
01 — CAPABILITIES
VO2 Sport Limited operates as the research, formulation and intellectual-property entity behind a portfolio of endurance nutrition formulations. The development brief is constant: clean-label composition, formulated for efficiency, so athletes can pursue their lifetime bests consistently. We develop; licensed partners manufacture and distribute.
Matrix design from first principles: carbohydrate ratio modelling, gel-system selection, osmolality and pH control. Bench iterations documented to specification-sheet standard.
Technical assessment of raw materials against solubility, stability, standardisation and provenance criteria. Supplier qualification with full documentation review.
Production-ready specifications, bills of materials, allergen and nutritional declarations, and process parameters prepared for contract manufacture.
Formulation know-how, trade marks and brand assets are held and managed centrally at entity level, then licensed for commercialisation.



02 — PIPELINE
Our formulation criteria mandate strictly gut-safe, drinkable hydrogel structures that eliminate GI distress during high-intensity output. We source premium, highly stable ingredients for cognitive and vascular support, and hold the resulting formulation know-how in-house.
Multiple formulations are in active development across bench, validation and pre-production stages.
Criteria describe formulation targets under active development and do not constitute product claims.
Inclusion rates, raw-material identities, process parameters and stage detail are released under mutual NDA.
03 — STANDARDS
We work to the documentation standards our manufacturing partners expect. Every formulation leaves development with a complete technical file, so qualification, quoting and first-article production proceed without rework.

04 — PARTNERS
Contract Manufacturers
Sachet and stick-pack capability, hot-fill or cold-fill, with gel-system handling experience. We arrive with a defined specification, target cost of goods and realistic volume forecasts.
Ingredient Suppliers
Standardised botanical extracts, carbohydrate systems, gelling agents and functional actives. We prioritise documented standardisation, solubility performance and consistent lot-to-lot analysis.
Packaging & Format
Single-serve formats with an emphasis on reduced plastic and improved on-the-move usability. Interested in emerging snap-open and mono-material structures.
