Personal Care
Touching Technologies
We transform chemistry into sensory.
As experts in sustainable natural esters, IOI Oleo Personal Care Team supports leading cosmetics companies creating successful brand sensory by giving their products a unique signature touch.
Naturally found in the skin, esters are very safe components imparting most of the sebaceous secretions (sebum) covering the surface of our epidermis. Their variety and benefits are so multiple, that they grew to be a major technology for cosmetics, both natural and conventional.
From emollients to emulsifiers or multifunctionals, IOI Oleo Personal Care has pioneered the industry for more than 100 years, to offer high-quality ingredients made in Germany. Today, we design and manufacture specialty ingredients providing sensorial benefits leading to emotional experiences. These three pillars are the basis of our “Touching Technologies” philosophy. And what does it stand for exactly?
