Lelantos Fibre, Inc. Launches Patent-Pending 5g Creatine Drinking Straw Platform and Expands Commercial Readiness for White-Label Partners

Creating a New Creatine Delivery Category - Just Drop and Sip

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Feb. 24, 2026 — Lelantos Fibre, Inc. today announced the launch of its patent-pending Creatine Drinking Straw platform, a new white-label and private-label supplement format designed for brands seeking differentiated creatine products. Each straw contains a flavored internal matrix lined with 5 grams of pre-measured creatine monohydrate and great flavors, allowing users to consume creatine while sipping through the straw.

The launch marks a significant step in Lelantos Fibre’s strategy to commercialize its infused and lined straw technology across high-demand supplement categories. The Company believes creatine is a strong additional entry point due to broad consumer awareness, repeat-use potential, and the ongoing need for more convenient daily delivery formats.

“Creatine is one of the best-known supplement ingredients, but the user experience has not improved much in years,” said Thomas Shea, President of Lelantos Fibre, Inc. “We built this platform to solve a real usability problem while also giving brand partners a new format they can bring to market quickly. For us, this is not just a single SKU. It is a platform opportunity.”

In developing this new technology, Lelantos solved several technical challenges. Heat, moisture, and acidic conditions can promote the degradation of creatine into creatinine, an undesired byproduct. To address this, the Company developed manufacturing methods designed to help preserve creatine content in the finished straw while also supporting rapid dissolution in just a few sips. 

The Company reports that internal development work has included multiple formulations, ten flavor varieties, and additional functional ingredient combinations. Initial third-party laboratory testing indicates preserved creatine content at targeted levels in finished straws under tested conditions, and longer-term shelf-life studies are in progress. Certificates of Analysis (COAs) and technical documentation are available upon request to prospective partners.

At launch, Lelantos Fibre will focus on white-label and private-label manufacturing partnerships. The Company can support customized packaging configurations for brand partners, including individually wrapped straws, boxed retail formats, and sampling kits. Lelantos Fibre is currently in discussions with multiple brands and expects partner product announcements in the near future.

The Company also emphasized the strategic value of its intellectual property and process development efforts. Lelantos Fibre’s portfolio now includes six patent filings and a growing body of proprietary manufacturing know-how related to infused and lined straw systems for nutraceutical, flavor, and functional ingredient delivery.

“We believe the value here is the combination of formulation capability, manufacturing methods, and patent coverage,” Mr. Shea added. “Our goal is to become the partner of choice for brands that want innovative straw-based delivery systems without having to build the technology internally.”

Lelantos Fibre expects the creatine platform to support broader expansion into additional supplement categories over time, using the same core delivery approach with category-specific formulation and performance optimization.
