Summary of the year 2019
Every month, we highlight trends or innovative solutions from our broad portfolio for the Personal Care industry.
As 2019 draws to a close, we would like to end this year’s series with a brief summary of some topics covered. In the following paragraphs, we take a look back on three major topics that we focused on to try and help you with your formulation challenges: protection, sustainability, and special consumer needs.
