Amorepacific Vitalbeauty's 'Myeongjaksu Nok'.

[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Hyewon] Amorepacific's Vital Beauty announced on the 11th that its ‘Myeongjaksu Nok’ has obtained green technology product certification.

Launched in April this year, Vital Beauty Myeongjaksu Nok is a premium health functional food that awakens overall vitality by containing rare ultra-high-pressure deer antler, red ginseng, and ginseng berries. It contains carefully selected rare deer antler, red ginseng imbued with the energy of the earth, and precious ginseng berries that can be obtained only once from ginseng.

The manufacturing process uses Amorepacific's certified green technology, ‘Ultra-high-pressure ginseng processing technology (Cheonsamhwa).’ This technology shortens the red ginseng processing time compared to conventional methods and reduces energy consumption and carbon emissions by more than 10%. Additionally, it effectively removes soil microorganisms remaining on ginseng without applying heat or adding chemicals, making it environmentally friendly.

Amorepacific received ‘Green Technology Certification’ in 2020 for the ‘Ultra-high-pressure ginseng processing technology (Cheonsamhwa).’ The green technology product certification (Certification Number: GTP-22-03139) officially verifies that the previously acquired green technology has been applied to the product through the Green Certification Office, Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, and the Korea Institute of Planning and Evaluation for Technology in Food, Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries. During the evaluation process, it was assessed that “as a food product applying technology that uses ultra-high-pressure treated red ginseng to reduce carbon emissions and electricity consumption while maintaining the content of key health functional ingredients, it is suitable as a green technology product.”

Kim Wanki, head of the Healthcare Research Institute at Amorepacific R&I Center, said, “This green technology product certification is a meaningful achievement realized through Amorepacific’s continuous research to provide eco-friendly healthcare solutions.”
