Evonik Extends Partnership with Sabinsa

Tag:Botanical Extracts
Evonik Industries and Sabinsa have elevated their exclusive marketing partnership with the Personal Care product line of Evonik on a new level. Evonik will now offer more specialized, standardized botanical actives and extracts from Sabinsa, all specifically developed for cosmeceutical use, to the personal care industry worldwide. This new agreement deepens the one-year-old partnership and enables Sabinsa to get their innovative and efficacious active ingredients into the global cosmetic and personal care market by tapping into Evonik's extensive customer base. Willy Klipp, Senior Vice President & General Manager of Evonik's business line Care Specialties, states: "Collaborating with Sabinsa has allowed us to strategically broaden our ingredients portfolio with novel nature-derived active ingredients. As these bio-active compounds exactly meet the needs of our customers, we want to offer them now another two Sabinsa cosmeceuticals for the development of innovative products and new applications." Shortly Evonik will introduce Venocin(TM) (90%), a standardized extract derived from the seeds of the Horse Chestnut tree for the cosmetic market. Horse chestnut extract is clinically proven to benefit people suffering for example from varicose or spider veins. The second "new entry" is Xymenynic Acid, obtained from Santalum album seeds. The standardized powder extract adds an anti-inflammatory effect to personal care products. These products will complement the already existing range of new plant extracts originating from the cooperation with Sabinsa: Tego(R) Galanga, obtained from the roots of Kaempferia galangal; Tego(R) Policosanol, a mixture of higher aliphatic alcohols extracted from sugar cane wax; Tego(R) Arjuna, a standardized extract from the heartwood of the Terminalia Arjuna tree; and Tego(R) Turmerone, a distilled fraction of turmeric oil from the root of Curuma longa by a supercritical carbon dioxide process. These products are produced at Sami Labs Ltd., Sabinsa's national award-winning research centre in Bangalore, India and have been tested for safety and efficacy in their biological research laboratory by advanced in vitro systems like cell lines and bioassays.
