Inolex has received the 2014 Frost & Sullivan Global Personal Care Product Innovation Leadership Award for Emulsense, a natural cationic agent for hair conditioning and skin care.
Emulsense is said to improve the conditioning features in consumer hair and skin products and has non-GMO, palm-free and biodegradable properties.
Derived from the alcohol in the Brassica plant and the fermentation of an amino acid, Inolex says it provides a natural alternative to the petrochemical products traditionally used for these applications.
“Driven by its concentrated customer-centric approach to improve the hair care routine of consumers who are seeking renewable ingredients in cosmetic products, Inolex was proactive to align company business goals with visionary and innovation excellence to fulfill unmet customer needs in the global personal care market,” said Nandhini Rajagopal, Industry Analyst at Frost & Sullivan.
