During a series of Innovation Seminars, taking place at In-Cosmetics North America in the heart of New York City, Sept. 7 & 8, 2016, some of the world’s most forward-thinking personal care ingredients suppliers will offer exclusive insights into their latest product developments, while also sharing new formulation techniques.
Providing R&D professionals and finished product manufacturers with novel concepts that can influence future cosmetic developments, the two-day program will feature presentations from CoValence, Clariant, International Research Services, LipoTrue, Lonza Consumer Care, Revolymer, Solvay and Salicylates and Chemicals Pvt.
“The US beauty and personal care market is expected to reach a value of US$90bn by 2020, an increase of 12%," said Belinda Carli, technical advisor, In-Cosmetics Group. "However, consumers are demanding more from brands than ever before, which is creating challenges that manufacturers are finding increasingly difficult to solve. The Innovation Seminars will help the cosmetic industry uncover new technologies and ingredients that will lead to the formulation of exciting new products, enabling the market to achieve its potential.”
Multifunctional beauty products, high performance polymers and surfactants are just three of the highlights from the program.
Developing new multi-functional beauty products
Sulfate-free and mild cleansing formulations that meet mass-market cost constraints, and multi-functional products that shorten consumers' routines are some of the ways manufacturers can meet the demands of consumers, according to Denis Bendejacq of Solvay. At In-cosmetics North America he will focus on new regulations and how they are driving formulators to innovate using traditional ingredients, before introducing the company’s solutions that can help answer challenging claims.
High performance polymers for hair and skin care
Polymers represent the second largest class of ingredients in cosmetics and personal care products, and US demand for natural polymers is forecast to grow 4.3% a year to $5.1 billion by 2020. Dr. Tom Castle from Revolymer believes that film forming polymer technologies can give compelling benefits in the hair and skincare areas. During his session he will explain how RevCare Natural Effects, a naturally derived resin technology, can provide great hold, gloss and natural feel, as well as outstanding environmental resistance.
Multifunctional surfactants
Surfactants frequently come under pressure for their use in cosmetic products. Although they perform essential functions, they can be irritating to the skin and are not always effective. Lisa Gandolfi from Clariant North America will review GlucoTain surfactants, which are known for their mildness and sustainability profiles, and highlight their performance benefits, such as hair conditioning synergies, fragrance solubility, and viscosity building.
Other areas that will be covered during the Innovation Seminars will be the launch of a new biodegradable, broad spectrum anti-microbial; EO-free technologies for mild cleansing; wet wipe preservation; stabilized retinaldehyde as a form of vitamin A; and the application of well-known technological processes, currently used in the pharmaceutical industry, that will refocus the way we think about cosmetics.
In-Cosmetics North America will take place at Pier 36 in New York City. Featuring more than 150 international cosmetic ingredient suppliers, the free to attend event will enable manufacturers to source the most innovative ingredients, while developing their technical knowledge and understanding of current trends.
