Personal care products for personal hygiene, personal care, cosmetics and oral hygiene contain a diverse range of mineral salts. The different tasks they perform are numerous: mineral salts are used as humectants, skincare agents, keratolytic agents and buffers. They control a product's viscosity, preserve it or act as antiperspirants and deodorants.
Certification and documentation
Our products conform to European legislation governing constituents more
Our products conform to European legislation governing constituents for use in the cosmetics industry1 (Council Directive 76/768/EEC and Regulation (EC) No. 1223/2009). This means:
They are not on any list of prohibited substances
They are not tested on animals
They do not contain any substances that are carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic for reproduction (CMR-free)
They are not acquired using nanomaterials
They do not contain and were not acquired by products of genetic engineering (GMO-free)
Our mineral salts are preregistered with REACH for use in personal care products. You can find further details on certification and documentation on the "Regulatory Documentation" page.
Many of our products are identical to natural substances and can therefore be used in natural cosmetics. However, our mineral salts have an advantage over natural products because of their higher purity and constantly high quality, without fluctuations that are inevitable in materials from nature.
Areas of application
The Personal Care field can be divided into three areas more
The Personal Care field can be divided into three areas – skincare, haircare and oral hygiene. Our new pidolates product line is used in these segments.
Pidolates are the salts of pyroglutamic acid and occur in the skin as a natural moisturizing factor. As they are identical to products found in the skin, these effective substances are absorbed very easily by the skin. Pidolates have excellent bioavailability and they are not phototoxic, comedogenic or mutagenic. They are therefore especially suitable for use in skincare products.
Pidolates conform to the European requirements of Regulation (EC) No. 1223/2009 on cosmetic products and Directive 76/768/EC and its appendices.
