Once again this year many visitors and exhibitors from the cosmetics industry lined the corridors and stands at the in-cosmetics. Again, Paris had been chosen as host for the biggest exhibition for cosmetic raw materials. “Many partners of Biesterfeld Spezialchemie’s Cosmetic division presented new raw material concepts at their booths”, explains Bettina Heick, Product Manager Cosmetics, Biesterfeld Spezialchemie GmbH.
Hamburg based company Dr. Straetmans, whose products are distributed in Eastern Europe by Biesterfeld Spezialchemie introduced two new products: Dermofeel® Easymuls, an oil-in-water cold-emulsifier, as well as Dermofeel® Viscolid, a natural oil thickener.
Biesterfeld Spezialchemie’s partner for silicones, Dow Corning, also presented two innovations. Dow Corning® ES 5300, a silicone emulsifier for water-in-oil emulsions, as well as Dow Corning® PH 1560, a viscous silicon fluid with high refractive index mainly for use in color cosmetics. In addition, Dow Corning® ES 7040, a hydrophilic silicon elastomer with high formulation flexibility that was launched last year was awarded the Cosmetics & Toiletries Innovation Award.
“Biesterfeld Spezialchemie is looking forward to April 2014, when, for the first time, the in-cosmetics will take place in Hamburg. A home match for our company with headquarters in the Hanseatic city. The Biesterfeld Spezialchemie team will be represented with an own stand together with our partners Dow Corning and KAO Chemicals”, says Inge Gotthardt, Business Manager LifeScience, Biesterfeld Spezialchemie GmbH.
