Singapore agribusiness Wilmar International is celebrating winning silver in the functional ingredient category at the in-cosmetics Asia awards in Bangkok, Thailand for Wilsol SPF Booster.
Wilsol SPF Booster is a plant-based, bio-degradable ingredient that uniquely multiplies the sun protection factor (SPF) performance of ultraviolet (UV) filters by up to three times.
It is compatible with mineral and chemical sunscreens, across water-in-oil and oil-in-water emulsion systems.
This efficacy and formulation flexibility allows producers of beauty products to reduce UV filter usage, thereby optimising cost, protection and sensory performance.
In a burgeoning sunscreen care market that seeks balance between sun protection and environmental safety, Wilsol SPF Booster is a pioneering solution that meets these needs.
“We are thrilled to receive this recognition from in-cosmetics Asia,” said Rahul Kale, group head of Wilmar Oleochemicals & Biofuels.
“As our first in-cosmetics award, Wilsol SPF Booster represents our team’s dedication to innovation and solution excellence.”
