UK-Grown Pea Peptide
Sustainably and organically cultivated in Yorkshire, this ingredient offers formulators a truly local, low-carbon-footprint alternative to imported peptide options.

Derived from Pisum sativum (pea), this plant based peptide is rich in skin conditioning actives that help to improve barrier function, boost hydration, and promote a smoother, firmer complexion. Its gentle, bioavailable peptides support the skin’s natural collagen and elastin, encouraging a healthier, more resilient appearance.

Peptides are enjoying a well deserved spotlight in modern skincare. These short chains of amino acids act as messengers within the skin, helping it function at its best. From barrier repair and enhanced hydration to improved firmness and radiance, peptides have become a go-to in everything from serums to moisturisers and masks.

Pea-derived peptides are particularly suited to natural and plant-based formulations, providing a vegan, allergen friendly, and non-animal alternative to traditional collagen-boosting actives. Their lightweight, gentle nature makes them ideal for sensitive skin and formulations focused on skin health and resilience.

Why It's paired with Papain
Papain is a natural enzyme extracted from papaya, valued for its gentle exfoliating and proteolytic properties. When combined with peptides like Pea Peptide, papain helps refine the skin’s surface through mild enzymatic exfoliation, creating an ideal environment for peptides to absorb and perform effectively. This synergy enhances the peptides’ ability to hydrate, strengthen the barrier, and support collagen production.

What makes ours different
Beyond its impressive skincare benefits, what sets our Pea Peptide apart is its origin. Grown and manufactured in Yorkshire, it offers a short, transparent supply chain and a notably lower carbon footprint than imported alternatives. It’s also palm-free, produced without palm-derived materials, and preserved with a COSMOS-approved, vegan-friendly, palm-free preservative system.

Ideal for water-based formulations including face mists, serums, cleansers, and emulsions. Whether you’re creating products for sensitive skin, age-defence, or daily hydration, this versatile, sustainable ingredient is made for today’s thoughtful indie brands.
