It is particularly effective as a means of improving suspension control without unduly increasing viscosity. Also improve mattifying effect or can support mild and deep cleansing while providing a luxurious sensory. Fluid to medium textures.

Is a specially prepared dipsersion of an organically modified hectorite in Isododecane. This grade is designed with a high active content to impart rheological control and suspension in cosmetic products. BENTONE ULTIMATE ISD applied easily without leaving a greasy film on the skin. It provides thermostable viscosity control of the emulsion's oil phase, improves application properties, enhances skin-feel, improves suspension and imparts a pleasant residual silkiness to the skin. It is also particularly useful in emulsions and can be used in "cold process" systmes. It is an alternative to traditional polymer or cellulose-based thickeners for stabilising emulsions.

Specially prepared dispersion of an organically modified hectorite in a low carbon alkane. This grade is designed with a high active content to impact rheological control and suspension in cosmetic products. Due to BENTONE ULTIMATE LC's volatility, it is an excellent alternative to cyclopentasiloxane based products. It applies easily without leaving a greasy film on the skin. It provides thermostable viscosity control of the emulsion's oil phase, improves application properties, enhances skin-feel, improves suspension and imparts a pleasant residual silkiness to the skin. It is also particularly useful in emulsions and can be used in "cold process" systems. It is an alternative to traditional polymer or cellulose-based thickeners for stabilising emulsions.

BENTONE HYDROCLAY™ 700 is a highly beneficiated additive that imparts thermostable rheology and provides excellent suspension control. An easily dispersible powdered blend of smectite clay and Xanthan gum, it is a 100% natural, stable and light sensory rheology modification. It increases the viscosity of the aqueous phase and stabilises viscosity on ageing with a broad pH and electrolyte tolerance, at varying temperatures and under different shear conditions.

BENTONE HYDROLUXE™ 360 A natural derivated all-in-one clay based emulsifying and stabilizing additive for the creation of O/W emulsions. It imparts thixotropic viscosity and good suspension and heat stability to the water phase of cosmetics. The balanced composition of mild emulsifying agents, consistency enhancers and natural stabilizers provide easy handling, low development effort and reliable results with high batch-to-batch consistency.

BENTONE® LUXE XO is a 99% natural emulsifying gel which provides rheology and emulsification in W/O formulations. Cold-processable and flexible, it enables formulators to create a wide range of innovative non-greasy textures. It provides superior flexibility for skin care product makers by stabilizing low to extremely high oil or high water loads in W/O systems.

Thixcin R PC is a non-hygroscopic castor oil derived, with high thixotropic power. In addition to its rheological properties, it gives water repellency, stabilises w/o emulsions and acts as a stiffening agent in sticks and ointments. It can also be used as a dry binder in pressed powder systems.

FANCOR ABYSSINIAN OIL is extracted from the seeds of Crambe abyssinica, rich in unsaturated fatty acids. It provides silky touch and shine to hair. It is a good pigments dispersant.

Fancor Meadowfoam oil is extracted from the seeds of Limnanthes Alba. It provides a silky touch and it brings shine and silkiness. It has an exceptional stability to oxidation.

MEADOWESTOLIDE® A plant-based derived bioactive analogue of Ceramide that offers formulation versatility. Naturally derived from the sustainable Meadowfoam Seed Oil, MEADOWESTOLIDE® is a unique, structurally sophisticated and functional active ingredient which provides multiple benefits : skin and hair fiber moisturization and protections. It also improves texture and gives a better color “pay-off” in pigment delivery.

MEADOWQUAT HG 70 is produced by reacting meadowfoam seed oil to form this sulphated quaternium compound enhancing the conditioning effects of meadowfoam fatty acids. It protects and preserves color in semi and permanent hair dyes aplications.

NATURALUXE MFF is a biodegradable (non-persistent), 80% natural polyester-based film former for O/W sunscreen emulsions providing very water resistant performance (> 50% SPF retention after 80 min water immersion) as demonstrated by in-vitro SPF and water resistance testing. NATURALUXE MFF is a high performing material. It is 100% active, compatible with ethanol and comes in an easy to handle liquid format. The extremely pleasing sensory combined with low odour and no colour impact to the final formulation completes the value proposition.

HYDROCLAY™ 2000 is a smectite powder easily dispersible in water. It has high thixotropy and anti-sedimentation properties, forming 3D network gels. It has good tolerance to electrolytes and a stable pH 6-11.

BENTONE HYDROCLAY™ 1100 is a purified smectite easily dispersible in water. It has high-medium thixotropy and anti-sedimentation properties, forming 3D network gels of the individual clay. Good tolerance to electrolytes. Stable pH 6-11.

HYDROCLAY™ 2001 is a smectite powder easily dispersible in water. It has high thixotropy and anti-sedimentation properties, forming 3D network gels. It has good tolerance to electrolytes and a stable pH 6-11.

MEADOWLACTONE;is an amphoteric active thanks the lactone ring that will open and close depending on pH. It contains a cyclical lactone ring which confers hydrophilic nature and a Meadowfoam fatty acid which giving lipophilic attributes. Meadowlactone can provide balance moisturization to improve tone, elasticity. It also helps to reduce irritation.

Bentone gel CAO V is a dispersion of organically modified hectorite in castor oil. It offers rheological control and suspension to the oil phase of cosmetics. It is useful in cold process systems.
