SiBrid® Fluids are hybrid fluids that cross the boundaries between organics and silicones. SiBrid® Fluids are the preferred cosmetic vehicles for naturals where silicone-like properties are desired.

Permethyl® line of products. A variety of skin feels, spreadability, and film-forming properties can be achieved with their use.

Silsoft* Silicones for Personal Care - While Momentive silicones have long benefited personal care products with softness and smoothness, our scientists continually improve upon this foundation and engineer new or enhanced value-adding features into our functionalized silicone products. Our Silsoft silicone fluids portfolio has captured such features in products that can also perform effectively at low use levels and, therefore enable impressive potential cost efficiencies. Silsoft silicone fluids can help provide unique sensory enhancement while delivering superior smoothness, protection and shine, flawless coverage, and a soft, rich texture

Hydro~Kote hydrogenated vegetable oils are refined, bleached, and deodorized. Their unique properties make them very useful in a variety of applications for the pharmaceutical industry. Their Applications Include: Topical creams and ointments, Suppositories, Controlled Release, Replacement to cocoa butter

A bio-based polymer, derived from corn that allows flexibility in hair care styling from stiff hold to subtle definition and textures from waxes to sprays.

The unique cocoa powders of JS are highly defatted and near 100% fiber solids. Applied in bakery and confectionery, ice cream and dairy as well as in low caloric health products. Ensuring high intense coloring and dispersibility in liquid is exceptionally good. Due to less fat, a mild alkalization still results in a strong intrinsic color impact without requirements to label alkali (under 7%).
