SNF is demonstrating its cold-processable multifunctional polymers for skincare, haircare, and sunscreen products at in-cosmetics Global stand D11.
The complexity of solar formulations and their difficult-to-achieve stability traditionally required a hot process but SNF’s cold process unlocks new possibilities without losing performance or stability with chemical or mineral sunscreens.
With its wide range of polymers, SNF Personal Care meets the needs of the global markets, offering various textures and thicknesses.
Polymer’s high-performance level helps to reduce the number of ingredients while maintaining a broad spectrum of benefits: rich or light texture, softness, transparency, easy application, no residue, and a sensation of freshness.
The Flocare, Natursol and Flogel range are cold-processable, high-performance polymers that provide customers with a wide range of textures.
On top of that, by omitting the heating process, one can protect and preserve the most sensitive raw materials, like active ingredients.
Furthermore, Cold-process does not require specific equipment; the mixture can be done in the same container.
And, because SNF polymers are supplied in powder or liquid form, standard equipment can be used. As a result, manufacturing time is reduced by 70% and CO2 emissions by 96%.
