Committed to being the preferred specialties partner for the beauty, personal care and cleaning markets, Evonik's Care Solutions business offers comprehensive system solutions to empower customers to meet the increasing demand for eco-friendly and scientifically validated products in the Chinese market. System solutions are multi-component offerings across products, technologies and services that are tailored to a unique customer need and often have proven sustainability benefits.
“We are excited to introduce more innovations powered by biotechnology that deliver significant performance improvements and sustainable advantages,” says Alix Chen, general manager of Evonik’s Care Solutions business line in the Greater China region. “Moreover, with a more locally focused organizational structure, we can respond more swiftly and precisely to market demands in the region.”
Key innovation highlights from the company at PCHi 2025 include:
- Leadership in ceramide innovation and excellence: HAIRMIMICS® Boost is the ceramide solution for daily hair care, providing the hair with essential lipids to support healthy, strong, and resilient hair. SPHINGONY® sphingolipid is another powerful active ingredient that offers multifunctional benefits for beautiful skin, hair, and scalp. Naturally occurring and skin-identical, it reduces greasy hair, lengthens eyelashes, and boosts ceramide production.
- State-of-the-art advanced delivery systems: Evonik leads in advanced delivery systems, offering smart encapsulated solutions that significantly enhance cosmetic product performance. As a pure, gold-stabilized ascorbic acid (AA), Golden C® NG delivers a premium Vitamin C experience with its unprecedented stability and bioavailability in aqueous formulations, empowering formulators to develop novel and differentiated creations.
- Driving sustainable biosurfactant revolution: Following the inauguration of the world's first facility for industrial-scale rhamnolipid biosurfactant production in Slovakia last year, the company is creating entirely new solutions to drive the sustainable transformation across multiple industries. Evonik’s biosurfactant platform includes RHEANCE® One and SOPHANCE® LA-A for personal care applications, and REWOFERM® series for household cleaners and detergents. These high-quality, fully biodegradable glycolipids are derived from renewable corn feedstocks via a biotechnological process, offering exceptional foam-forming properties and multifunctionality.
- Comprehensive care solutions addressing local demands: dermosoft® EcoLact C MB is the company’s first tailored anti-dandruff agent for the Chinese market, where dandruff presents a major concern for consumers in hair care. This active blend, based entirely on natural crops, is highly effective against dandruff-causing microorganisms. To address the local needs for natural and sensitive skin friendly makeup removers, Evonik leverages its naturally derived polyglyceryl platform to introduce symbio®pure G3C2 MB, the first locally developed and produced solubilizer to offer gentle yet thorough cleansing. These innovations enable brand owners to better align with emerging consumer preferences and boost their product competitiveness.
