Italian personal care ingredient maker Esperis has entered into strategic, technical and commercial collaboration with Italo-Mexican company Bioingre Bioingredients Research, which specialises in the production of extracts from endemic plants and fruits of Mexico.
The collaboration begins with a range of six active ingredients: Active Age, Active Bright, Active Energy, Active Pure, Active Protect, and Active Sun.
The Milan-based outfit says this collaboration was founded because the two organisations share the same philosophy.
“By drawing inspiration from ancient herbalist traditions, unexpected solutions can be developed that perfectly fit modern cosmetology, enabling formulators to meet any new trend and market need,” added a spokeswoman.
“On one hand Esperis’ experience is rooted in botanical species typical of the Mediterranean area, while on the other hand Bioingre has knowledge of Central American plants.”
The spokeswoman added: “The mission of Esperis and Bioingre is a strong commitment to sustainability: respecting the delicate balance between botanical abundance and local conservation, Bioingre employs responsible sourcing practices while Esperis applies production methods in line with the policy of reducing environmental impact.”
