Our Brand








Founded in 2003 by elite athlete James Greenwell

The Proto-col range was born out of personal experience. Competing in international modern pentathlon, James tore an Achilles tendon late in his career. Collagen was instrumental to his recovery. After retiring from elite sport, he launched the Proto-col brand with a collagen supplement and a wealth of ideas.
