Patent granted for chewy confectionery compositions

Oxford Nutrascience Group plc ("the Company") has been granted a 20 year UK patent (from the date of submission, 7 August 2006) for its chewy confectionery composition technology. The patent covers the Company's technology which allows sugars to be replaced with fibres and for the product to be fortified with vitamins and other nutraceutical ingredients.

As outlined in the Company's admission document dated 8 February 2010 the application is listed under Patent Family 1, number 0615590.7. An application for a European chewy confectionery patent (number 07251302.1) was submitted on 27 March 2007. The granting of the European patent is expected in due course.

The Company recently announced the launch of its CHEWYZ™, a reduced sugar, high fibre, tasty, vitamin enriched soft chew. Every chew contains 50mg of Omega 3, vitamins A, C, D & E and contain 35% fibre. Chewyz will initially be launched in Tesco Nutri Centre stores.

Marcelo Bravo, Executive Chairman and Chief Technology Officer commented,

"The granting of this patent in the UK strengthens the commercialisation of our chews. Our Chewyz product is healthier than any other chew currently available in the market.

"This addition to our patent portfolio provides further validation of the Company's strategy of developing intellectual property that can be successfully exploited to build a business in the medicine and consumer healthcare sector."
