Cognis acquires polymer specialist

Cognis has acquired polymer specialist Cosmetic Rheologies to enhance its position as a full-range specialities supplier to the cosmetics industry.

Cosmetic Rheologies, which has headquarters in the UK, has a strong expertise in polymer research and manufacture as well as in formulation development, and provides rheology modifiers and conditioning agents.

At the Personal Care Ingredients Asia event recently held in Seoul, Korea, Cognis Care Chemicals and its active ingredients business Laboratoires Sérobiologiques exhibited a number of new products and concepts.

Each was an example of Cognis’ belief that wellbeing products should provide a holistic experience incorporating four key dimensions: perception, feel, effect and usage.

At its PCIA stand, and in several lectures during the event, were presented innovative products and solutions including Emulgade NLB and Cetiol CC, two elements in a new roll-on system; Lamesoft Care, a multifunctional wax dispersion product for skin and hair conditioning; Plantapon SF, an exceptionally mild surfactant blend for body cleansing; and two new actives for eye contour care – Eye Resolution, which combats the bags that appear below eyes, and Active Powder Eye Light, which acts against the dark rings that can form around them.
