Clariant has launched Nipaguard SCE Vita, its latest fully naturally derived preservation blend for cosmetics.
The Swiss firm says Nipaguard SCE Vita delivers comprehensive antimicrobial protection for personal care formulations without controversial preservatives.
“Nipaguard SCE Vita offers a powerful, modern solution that enhances product protection while aligning with consumer expectations for safety and sustainability,” it adds.
“Based on 100% renewable Sorbitan Caprylate, it is synergistically combined with naturally derived, rather than fossil based, benzoic acid.”
Besides offering broad-spectrum protection to a broad range of applications and formats, Nipaguard SCE Vita is said to be easy to use, safe and effective at low concentrations.
Extensive testing shows that the new formula meets the highest standard on the market, giving formulators complete confidence in its effectiveness to deliver the same performance as traditional preservatives.
“At Clariant we are proud to be a market leader in solutions for the preservation of cosmetics. Nipaguard SCE Vita contains no controversial preservatives and marks a significant step in our broader commitment to address the needs of health- and sustainability- conscious consumers and brands at the same time as creating value for customers with renewable-carbon, high-performance products,” said Karolina Scierski, Clariant’s portfolio manager for preservation.
Clariant will be exhibiting at in-cosmetics global in Amsterdam, the Netherlands on 8-10 April at stand 1D30.
