By adding to the allure of a smile that sparkles, hair that shines and skin that glows. We are solving. Every day. Always. As passionate, tenacious, solvers, we are in relentless pursuit of solutions that enhance our customers’ technology design, application and formulation for personal care products. 

Our people bring exceptional product knowledge, technical support and industry insights to help our customers amplify the efficacy, refine the usability, add to the allure, ensure the integrity, and improve the profitability of their products and applications.

From crocus to coconuts, rosewood to raspberries, and more — our breakthrough solutions solve some of the personal care industry’s most complex challenges.

As customer desires reshape global megatrends and regulatory landscapes, and as responsible solutions transform entire product categories, our innovations leap off the lab bench and into the field to deliver solutions that fuel our customers’ growth, delighting consumers the world over.

In 2022, we worked to achieve certification for our timber-based raw materials and achieved FSC and PEFC certification for Ashland. To support our customers in their commitment to sustainable sourcing, we now offer controlled wood-based products under both certifications. For products made using palm oil or palm kernel oil, we also achieved RSPO certification at one of our manufacturing locations. Our product offerings for many of our key personal care products are now RSPO-MB certified. We plan to expand that certification in 2023 to further our own and our customers' efforts on sustainably sourced and deforestation-free products.
