Special Emulsifiers Portfolio
Emulsifiers may seem to have only a supporting role in cosmetic products, but experienced formulators know that this is far from true. They literally hold the formulation together and, through their influence on various technical and strategic factors, have a decisive impact on a product’s success.
Finding the best emulsifier for your formulation can seem like a daunting task. But when you structure your search along key categories and properties, everything becomes much easier. Which technical parameters should the emulsifier fulfill? What is the intended application and how do you plan to market your product? By asking yourself these questions and consulting the useful overviews of our products, you will quickly find what you are looking for.

How to select the right Emulsifier
Do you plan to make an O/W or a W/O product? What charge, format and usage level should your emulsifier have, and do you want it to create a liquid crystal structure? The product group you want to use the ingredient for is naturally also very important, as are your needs regarding viscosity, pH, electrolyte and alcohol compatibility, and, finally, the general sensory profile you’re looking for.
