DKSH North America has signed an exclusive US distribution agreement with Alland & Robert, a global producer of vegetal gums for natural cosmetics.
The former will provide US business development, marketing, sales, logistics and distribution services for Alland & Robert.
Alland & Robert’s DemeCare range consists of products made from two vegetal gums: sterculia and acacia gum, which are exudates from trees.
Acacia and sterculia gums have properties essential to the formulation of natural hair, face, and body care cosmetics, including skincare products, cleansing gels, and make-up.
“We are delighted to partner with DKSH North America, and we look forward to a close cooperation to provide our expertise to cosmetic brands,” said Alland & Robert chief executive Charles Alland.
“Our applicative research and knowledge of natural gums will allow us to help our customers formulate vegetal, sustainable, and organic care products, and take another step towards clean and natural products that are not only healthy, but also good for the planet,” he added.
