Overview

LYCORED NATURAL PRODUCTS INDUSTRIES LTD., is a research and
development company dedicated to the scientific and commercial
development, production and marketing of natural products based
on the phytonutrients from tomato, including the carotenoids
lycopene, beta-carotene, phytoene and phytofluene, phytosterols
and other important phytochemicals.

LYCORED NATURAL PRODUCTS INDUSTRIES LTD. is a subsidiary company
of Makhteshim-Agan Industries Ltd.

LYCORED supervises production of Lyc-O-Mato tomato extract from
the field to the finished product. Coordination of the commercial
growing of a non-genetically modified, Lycopen-rich variety of
tomato plant is just the start of the multi-stepped process that
assures high product quality. Phytochemicals are extracted using
proprietary processing technology. Specialized extraction,
handling, packing and storing techniques assure a long shelf
life. LYCORED markets Lyc-O-Mato, its scientifically
standardized, natural tomato extract, worldwide.

LYCORED's Lyc-O-Mato formulations have defined functional
properties supported by basic research and clinical research. A
growing body of scientific evidence connects the antioxidant
activity of tomato phytonutrients with the optimal functioning of
man's natural defense system, our protection against degenerative
diseases.

LycoRed has acquired Biodar, which focuses on microencapsulation,
enteric coating, slow release technology and beadletting of lipid
materials.

LycoRed has firmly established itself as a science-based company
with a full forty-five percent of the LycoRed and Bio Dar staff
coming from the academic sector. Research and development is
guided by three staff Ph.D.'s working with respected scientists
from several leading universities.
