Water is one of the most precious resources on our planet, but it is not infinite: globally, water usage has increased by approximately 1% per year over the last 40 years. 2 billion people lack access to safe drinking water and its consumption by industries is constantly growing.
In most cases, water represents more than 2/3 of the final volume of a cosmetic product: in 2020, the cosmetic industry consumed 10.4 million tons of water globally. Synthetic ingredients, non-biodegradable and highly polluting, are still the benchmarks in cosmetic industry. Nonetheless, the cosmetic sector is actively transitioning towards a green revolution.
SOCRI S.p.A. – Greengredients is dedicated to reducing water pollution with advanced products matching synthetic performance on skin and hair, but with a significantly improved ecosafe profile.
GreenTAC®, a natural CTAC alternative, minimizes aquatic toxicity by 20 times. GreenTAC® – INCI name: Polyglyceryl-4 Dicocoate/Betainate Lactate – is biodegradable, non-toxic to the aquatic system and, due to its green profile, it is not restricted in usage, thus being usable also for solid cosmetics.
We will release GreenTAC® at In-Cosmetics Global in Paris, along with LACTIQUAT® and POLYSOL® P3.
