This year's trade show appearance will feature the Flavors & Fragrances (F&F) business unit and, for the first time, the Business Line CARE within the Material Protection Products (MPP) business unit, both from LANXESS's Consumer Protection segment. The segment comprises products that ensure the protection and well-being of consumers. It is characterized by strong brands, high product quality, innovative technologies and a global sales and service network. The F&F business unit offers a range of products, including sodium benzoate and benzyl alcohol, also based on sustainable raw materials.

To support cosmetic manufacturers in achieving their own sustainability goals, the business unit has significantly reduced CO2 emissions from its production sites by using green energy. F&F's branded personal care products include Purox B, Purox S, Solbrol and Purolan, which are used in various cosmetics and personal care products. Purox S sodium benzoate is characterized by high purity, low odor, and broad-spectrum efficacy in products prepared in the skin-friendly pH range. It is also suitable for products intended for babies and young children, such as wet wipes. A selection of multifunctional ingredients enhance consumer experience while supporting the preservation of cosmetic and personal hygiene products. For instance, Purolan PD-LO (pentylene glycol) has very low odor and is a versatile synergist ingredient for cosmetic and wet wipe formulations. Kalama 3PP offers pleasant aroma - masking undesired odors - while also supporting robust product shelf life. Purolan IHD provides smooth combing in hair products and silky feel in skin care.

LANXESS offers natural preservatives based on ethyl lauroyl arginate HCl (LAE) under the Neolone Bio Preservative brand. LAE is an effective preservative derived from natural ingredients such as sugar beet or coand can be used for cosmetic products. Neolone PH 100 Preservative is also a high quality phenoxyethanol product of pharmaceutical purity. It provides excellent preservative and protective functions for many different personal care products and is pH and temperature stable over a wide range. Kathon CG Preservative is a highly effective preservative for use in rinse-off hair and skin care products. It has excellent broad spectrum protection against many bacteria, yeasts as well as molds and is effective in a pH range typical of cosmetic products. The preservative offers an excellent eco-profile, as it degrades quickly and does not accumulate in the environment. Furthermore, Kathon CG Preservative does not transfer color casts or odors to personal care products. Even at low dosages, it is highly effective and thus extremely cost-efficient. The Bioban Bronopol preservatives provide broadspectrum bactericidal properties and excellent efficacy against Pseudomonas sp. The preservatives show excellent performance in combination with other preservatives, particularly isothiazolinone based preser-vatives and provides effective microbial control, even at very low use levels. In addition, MPP Care has a global network of microbiology experts who support the development of safe, high-quality and effective products - also with regard to regulatory requirements and approval - on a global level. The business line stands for long-standing expertise and recognized, trusted brands for preservation solutions in leave-on and rinse-off products. As a collaborative supplier, for questions concerning the use of the products, the LANXESS application chemists bring their expertise to assist customers, e.g. in formulating products that meet current consumer needs focused on sustainability and efficacy.
