The latest news at Horn is the national distribution partnership of Horn Care Elements with Nanovetores Technology S.A. of Florianópolis, Brazil. Nanovetores' exhaustive list of aqueous-based microencapsulated active ingredients are developed with a commitment to sustainability for use in personal care and cosmetics applications.
"There's a big demand for clean label companies like Nanovetores in the U.S. where we are seeing a continually growing market of environmentally conscience consumers," said Chris Lesko, vice president, Horn Care Elements. "Nanovetores is not only dedicated to sustainable practices, but most importantly, the products are effective. Cindy Zhang, senior application scientist at HORN has developed numerous formulas validating the efficacy and easy-to-work-with claims from Nanovetores. We are confident other formulators and chemists will also be impressed with the formulation-friendly characteristics of these actives. We have great expectations for the success of Nanovetores as HORN's technical sales team introduces the unique technologies to formulation chemists throughout the U.S."
Unlike other encapsulation technologies, Nanovetores features five unique release triggers for its proprietary lipid and biopolymer capsules. These capsules are larger than 200 nm, which are safe for consumers and the environment. Their particle size provides deeper skin permeation and overcomes the layer of the stratum corneum to reach the epidermis for maximum efficiency.
The extensive product list of Nanovetores actives are available for application in hair care, skin care, cosmetics and fragrances. Featured benefits of these actives include oil control, anti-aging, wrinkle filling and reducing, strengthening eyelashes and eyebrows, stimulating hair growth, skin firming, skin whitening, pain relief, nail strengthening, among others.
