TECHNICAL SEMINAR PREVIEW
TECHNICAL SEMINAR
Designed Enzymatic Biopolymers for a sustainable future in personal care

IFF has developed a new-to-the-world technology – Designed Enzymatic Biopolymers (DEB) – to break the trade-off between performance and sustainability in functional ingredients.

DEB uses advanced biotechnology to develop biopolymers that are nature-inspired, biodegradable and ready to meet the increased regulatory and consumer pressures to replace traditional polymers. Delivering textural benefits such as smoothing, softening, detangling and conditioning means no compromise in performance yet done in a sustainable way.

The first ingredient enabled by DEB is AURIST™ AGC, a biobased, biodegradable hair conditioning polymer with superior performance attributes which can drive meaningful sustainability improvements in your formulation.

QUARTZ Clear Conditioner

A clear, water-based formula for detangling and softening hair. This smooth, consistent gel provides easy combing and excellent hair feel. The conditioning properties can be attributed to AURIST™ AGC, a new-to-the-world biodegradable cationic biopolymer, which deposits to the hair surface and improves wet and dry combability. This formula, with a high natural origin index (NOI) of 96,43%, is part of our QUARTZ clear and natural haircare formulation collection.
