NATRASORB BATH is able to absorb and carry large quantities of oils and anhydrous liquids, such as bath oils. The starch is processed in a manner that creates unique 'pockets' that can carry the oils essentially in a solid, powder form. NATRASORB BATH starch is hydrophilic so that once the starch comes in contact with water, it immediately dissolves, releasing loaded oils, fragrances and/or emulsifiers, dispersing them into the warm water. The starch itself provides a soft feel to the bath water, but does not settle or leave a film.

CELQUAT L-200 is a low viscosity, highly cationic conditioner/film former useful in a broad range of styling, cleansing, and skin care products. This water soluble modified cellulosic is highly cationic over the entire useful pH range, is substantive to hair and skin, and provides such esthetic benefits as excellent combability, hold, gloss, and anti-static properties, and a smooth feel.

NATRASORB HFB is a hydrophobically modified non-GMO starch that has a high capacity for loading oils. The product functions as a free flowing carrier for oil soluble ingredients. When loaded, the Natrasorb® HFB starch maintains free flowing properties and good esthetics, even in the presence of moisture.

Structure ZEA is a naturally derived, non GMO rheology modifier that thickens and provides stabilization and esthetic enhancements in emulsion systems. Flexible over a wide pH range (3-10), it does not require neutralization and has a high tolerance to electrolytes and cationics. STRUCTURE ZEA is also ideal for boosting viscosity in formulations that requires instant dispersability in cold water or peroxide solutions such as hair bleaches and dyes.

ElfaMoist AC Humectant for high performing formulations with an outstanding sensory profile, while providing immediate and long-lasting moisturization (30 hours) after a single application.

TAPIOCA PURE is a naturally-derived TAPIOCA Pure starch is a high purity, GMO free, economic esthetic enhancer alternative for formulators. It can reduce gloss and perceived oiliness in aqueous and anhydrous formulations.

Structure XL starch is a naturally-derived and biodegradable rheology and esthetic modifier that enables more stable and natural emulsions for hair and skin care applications. Due to its low surface energy, it reduces the size of emulsion droplets enabling efficient stability and also builds synergistic viscosity with emulsifiers. Easy to use, it takes only two minutes to completely disperse in cold water with no pre-mixes needed. Flexible over wide pH range (3-9).

DRY-FLO PC starch enhances product esthetics by reducing the greasiness and tackiness as well as controlling the gloss caused by oil-phase components in lotions, creams and ointments. With excellent stability at pH 2-8, this naturally derived oil absorber is an essential ingredient to enhance the esthetics of a variety of personal care formulations. DRY-FLO PC starch is non-gmo and available and approved globally.

ELFACOS GT 282S enables formulators to create crystal clear gel and cleansing formulations in a wide pH range (2-12) in surfactants and water systems. It’s a unique Newtonian associative thickener with excellent thickening synergism with surfactants. It is also suitable for sulfate-free systems. ELFACOS GT 282S nonionic copolymer is a unique rheology modifier (polyalkylene glycol derivative) that enables crystal clear cleansing systems. As a unique Newtonian associative thickener, it exhibits excellent viscosity synergism with surfactants.

PURITY 21C Pure is an unmodified corn starch that can serve as an economical and effective oil absorber. Ideal for formulations that require high whiteness and free flowing properties. Irradiated, it possess a clean microbiological profile.

ELFACOS ST 37 are unique polyalkalene glycols which have excellent stabilizing effect on emulsions. Having a high capacity to absorb water and oil, a relatively low percentage is needed in cosmetic formulations. The stabilizing effect is not obtained by thickening, allowing for low viscous stable emulsions to be achieved. As nonionic copolymers, Elfacos ST 9 and Elfacos ST 37 polyalkylene glycol derivatives are hydrolytic, pH and electrolyte stable over a very wide temperature range. In decorative cosmetics, they act as binders for powders and provide improved color and payoff in lipsticks and similar products.

CELQUAT SC-230M is a naturally derived cationic conditioning polymer designed to provide medium to high conditioning to hair care formulations. It shows excellent coacervation profile and deposition performance. With Celquat SC 230-M, formulators can achieve effective thickening performance and significantly better clarity than using cationic guars and starch-based conditioning polymers.

ELFACOS ST 9 are unique polyalkalene glycols which have excellent stabilizing effect on emulsions. Having a high capacity to absorb water and oil, a relatively low percentage is needed in cosmetic formulations. The stabilizing effect is not obtained by thickening, allowing for low viscous stable emulsions to be achieved. As nonionic copolymers, Elfacos ST 9 and Elfacos ST 37 polyalkylene glycol derivatives are hydrolytic, pH and electrolyte stable over a very wide temperature range. In decorative cosmetics, they act as binders for powders and provide improved color and payoff in lipsticks and similar products.

DRY-FLO TS is an aluminum-free, non-GMO modified tapioca starch ideal for reducing greasiness, gloss, and tack in the most oily formulations. Its low-protein content is ideal for formulations for sensitive skin and reduced allergy concerns compared to corn-base starches. Patent pending.

Amaze Nordic Barley is a 100% natural, unmodified, COSMOS approved starch. The pure barley is regionally sourced from Scandinavia and produced in an eco-conscious process as a side-stream of the beverage industry. It has excellent microbial purity and so is produced without the requirement for irradiation or other treatments. The unique sensory benefits delivered in formulation by the Amaze Nordic Barley are a result of the products unique singular oblate spheroid morphology. The product allows formulators to achieve excellent skin feel from skin and sun care emulsions. In addition, the Barley starch delivers a 100% natural oil absorber for dry shampoo applications. Finally, it can deliver blurring and nude effects fo color cosmetics.

DRY-FLO PURE is a unique, hydrophobically modified natural polymer. This naturally-derived (corn-based) starch is an irradiated version of Dry-Flo® PC. It reduces the greasiness and tackiness, and controls the gloss caused by oil-phase components in lotions, creams and ointments. With excellent stability at pH 2-8, DRY-FLO PURE is an essential ingredient to enhance the aesthetics of a variety of personal care formulations. It is non-GMO and available and approved globally.

DRY-FLO TS PURE is an irradiated version of Dry-Flo TS starch that is an aluminum-free, non-GMO modified tapioca starch ideal for reducing greasiness, gloss, and tack in the most oily formulations.
