About

Built By Athletes, Backed By Science

At Ubis’®, we believe that endurance isn’t just built through training—it’s powered by what you put into your body. Our journey began with a simple yet powerful question: What if athletes had access to clean, effective fuel that actually works with their bodies, not against them?

Our founder, a passionate endurance athlete and a coach, spent years testing products that promised performance but often fell short, leaving an aftertaste, requiring water to wash down, or causing numerous gut issues at the most critical moments of some of his races. He often said, “…these products make fuelling to be another project you have to manage during your race.” Even the better options were often imported, leading to availability issues, and didn’t suit the South African palate.

That’s when Ubis’® Nutrition was born. It started with the desire to create viable options and educate athletes on the science of nutrition and fuelling for optimum performance. We created a product that’s simple, natural, and scientifically designed to work for you, so you can focus on what you love to do: Cycle, Run, Swim, etc.

Our plant-based energy gels have a smooth taste, are easy on the gut, and clear the palate quickly. They are made from premium natural ingredients and formulated for optimum performance. Ubis’® Nutrition products give you a SEAMLESS ENERGY experience, which is carefully crafted for consistently optimum and predictable performance outcomes. This is how fuelling should be—a truly seamless experience!
