Chemicals for Cosmetics & Personal Care

Personal-care products combine a base of water, humectants and emollients with surfactants for cleansing, thickeners for texture, preservatives for stability and a growing list of functional actives. A shampoo may rely on anionic and amphoteric surfactants, while a serum might carry niacinamide, salicylic acid or sodium hyaluronate at carefully controlled levels.

We supply cosmetic-grade raw materials including glycerin, propylene glycol, sodium lauryl sulfate, cocamidopropyl betaine, fatty alcohols, triethanolamine, zinc oxide and titanium dioxide for mineral sunscreens, phenoxyethanol and other preservatives, and actives such as niacinamide, allantoin and salicylic acid. Formulation and QC labs also use our analytical solvents and reagents to check assay, microbial preservative efficacy and stability. Buyers include contract manufacturers, independent skincare brands, soap and detergent makers, and distributors serving salons and pharmacies.

Regulatory expectations for cosmetic ingredients differ sharply between markets. The EU Cosmetics Regulation restricts or bans many substances and sets maximum concentrations, the US has updated its framework under MoCRA, and ASEAN, GCC and other regions run their own ingredient lists. We provide a COA and GHS SDS with every batch and, where the manufacturer can supply them, statements on heavy metals, microbiology, animal testing, or origin that brand owners use for their product information files. Pack sizes range from small drums for indie brands to full container loads of commodity bases.
