For a century, Ashland Inc. has adapted, ahead of the curve, to shape markets and enable customers to solve their most complex challenges. Breakthrough, high performing ingredients from the company’s innovative platform technologies will be displayed during NYSCC Suppliers' Day. You'll find Ashland at stand 507.
Ashland’s innovative technology platforms enable customers to respond to global megatrends and regulatory landscapes. These unique, "new-to-the-world’ additives and specialty ingredients are tunable and can scale multiple markets. They are renewable, natural, biodegradable, non-microplastic, non-GMO and vegan. At Suppliers' Day, emphasis is given to the Transformed Vegetable Oil (TVO) platform with three unique, new-to-the-world additives with attractive sustainable characteristics. Antaron soja glyceride is a nature-derived, biodegradable film-former that delivers water resistance and sun protection factor (SPF) boosting benefits to sun care and color cosmetic formulations. This innovation enables the creation of more natural sun care creams, lotions, gels and color cosmetics, according to Ashland.
Softhance MR conditioning agent is a nature-derived, biodegradable conditioning agent delivering consumer-perceivable skin softness from rinse-off cleansing formulations. Depositing on the skin during washing, Softhance MR helps skin retain moisture, leaving it feeling conditioned and soft after rinsing. Non-microplastic, nonGMO and vegan suitable, Softhance MR offers a sustainable option to deliver conditioning benefits from body washes, hand soaps, facial cleansers and more.
Gantrez soja delivery system, a nature-derived, biodegradable ingredient that is substantive to oral mucosa and enamel to keep oral care actives in the mouth for longlasting benefits. It enables the creation of novel oral care products with long-lasting freshness and antimicrobial benefits, according to Ashland.
In addition, Ashland unveiled its latest sustainable innovations:
• Perfectyl biofunctional, a high-tech chamomile extract, is inspired by new aesthetic techniques, to clarify and smoothen skin’s flaws (large pores and hyperpigmentation) for all ethnicities. Ashland uses fresh and living chamomile, Zeta Fraction technology and artificial intelligence (AI) to reveal the science of flawless skin with a pure, patented extract naturally rich in gamma amino butyric acid (GABA) and flower acids.
• Sclareance biofunctional is a natural purified sclareolide obtained by fermentation from clary sage flowers. Sclareance boosts the 4D defenses of skin. It can help the skin transform vitamin D into its active form. Sclareance offers a dual benefit on scalp irritation and compromised skin.
• Saffragyl biofunctional is a breakthrough innovation in oral care using 100% natural and biodegradable upcycled crocus flower extract for daily gum care beauty.
• Ashland's conscious-to-cutting-edge approach is on full display and puts a stake in the ground around sustainable extraction processes. Styleze es-forza ingredient is Ashland’s most recent addition to its plant-based ecostyling product line intended for gels and cream formulations. It boasts a customizable stiffness allowing formulators to tailor their products to a desired stiffness and hold while keeping hair tyles in the most extreme humidity.
• N-durhance es-repair ingredient is a durable split end repair polymer that protects hair from damage and breakage during wet combing and heat styling. It also provides excellent sensorial properties giving the hair a lubricious, not tacky feel when wet and perfectly conditioned when dry.
• Natrathix bio cellulose is a breakthrough thickener with suspension capabilities that keeps emulsion stability of skin and sun care creams, lotions and gels with a pleasant skin feel, offering an alternative to carbomer.
• Phyteq raspberry multifunctional is an effective and sustainable active ingredient that enriches cosmetic formulations beyond the antimicrobial aspect, according to Ashland.
• Finally, Ashland's Microbiological Quality Management (MQM) concept ensures the high quality of cosmetic products. It consists of four key elements: plant hygiene, product protection, challenge tests and training.
