How Collagen Protein From Australian Sources Supports Hair Growth and Joint Health
Pendle Hill, Australia – May 7, 2026 / Gelpro Australia /
Gelpro Australia has expanded its collagen product range with the addition of multi-collagen blends designed to address two of the most common reasons Australians seek collagen supplementation: hair growth support and joint recovery. The expansion includes updated formulations under the Peptipro line, drawing on hydrolysed collagen protein sourced exclusively from Australian and New Zealand hides.
Australian Sourcing as the Foundation
The Peptipro range and the broader Gelpro Australia multi-collagen blends are produced using bovine hides sourced from Australian and New Zealand livestock. This sourcing approach reflects a focus on traceability and clean-label formulation, with no artificial additives included in the finished products. Hydrolysed collagen protein in this form is broken down into smaller peptides, which allows for faster absorption compared to standard gelatin-based proteins.
Gelpro Australia’s products carry no artificial additives and are formulated to dissolve easily in both hot and cold liquids, making daily use practical for a broad range of consumers. The multi-collagen blends combine different collagen types to support varied physiological functions, including connective tissue integrity, skin elasticity, and hair follicle structure.
“With the Peptipro expansion, we are now offering three distinct multi-collagen formulations that cover Type I, II, and III collagen in one product,” said Michael Sherbon, Director of Gelpro Australia. “That combination is what makes this particularly relevant for people looking for collagen for hair and joint recovery at the same time, rather than choosing between separate supplements.”
The Science Behind Collagen for Hair and Joints
Collagen is the most abundant structural protein in the human body, forming a significant component of skin, cartilage, tendons, and hair. Type I collagen is found in high concentrations in hair follicles and the scalp dermis, which is why supplementation with hydrolysed collagen protein has attracted attention among researchers studying hair thinning and scalp health. Studies published in peer-reviewed journals have noted associations between collagen peptide supplementation and improvements in hair thickness and scalp coverage over periods of 16 weeks or longer.
For joint health, Type II collagen plays a more prominent role, particularly in cartilage matrix support. Gelpro Australia’s multi-collagen blends are the first in its range to combine all three collagen types in a single daily serving, which the company states was developed in response to consumer feedback requesting simplified supplementation routines.
Individuals searching for the best collagen for hair growth are frequently directed toward hydrolysed formulations because the molecular weight of the peptides is low enough to pass through the intestinal wall efficiently. Gelpro Australia’s Peptipro products are processed using enzymatic hydrolysis, which the company states results in a molecular weight of approximately 2 to 5 kilodaltons per peptide chain.
Positioning Within the Australian Supplement Market
The Australian collagen supplement market has grown considerably over the past five years, with consumer awareness of collagen for hair, skin, and joint benefits increasing alongside broader interest in functional nutrition. Gelpro Australia operates within this space by maintaining a direct-to-consumer model and limiting its distribution to channels where product integrity can be monitored.
The Peptipro multi-collagen blends are available in 300g and 500g formats, with a recommended daily serving of 10 to 20 grams depending on individual health goals. Gelpro Australia recommends consulting a healthcare professional for individuals with specific medical conditions before beginning any collagen supplementation protocol.
The company’s products are manufactured in Australia under food safety standards consistent with FSANZ regulations, and the sourcing chain for its bovine hides is documented back to the processing facility level. This level of supply chain documentation is intended to address growing consumer demand for verified origin claims in the supplement category.
