TheGreen Cell is a scientific research and development company that uses stem cell technology to harness the power of plants through advanced molecular biology and genetics. The company has developed proprietary methods to isolate wild plant stem cells in culture and upscale their growth to commercial levels while preserving their unique properties. Among its products is All in One™, an Aloe stem cell extract that is entirely sustainable and free from artificial ingredients or preservatives.
Minasolve, a subsidiary of the Minafin Group, specializes in developing and producing innovative, sustainable, and high-performance ingredients for the cosmetics and personal care industries. A key area of expertise for Minasolve is its "MinaSolve Protect" product line, which offers alternatives to conventional preservatives and includes a variety of cutting-edge ingredients designed to meet the demands of the cosmetic market. Among these is A-Leen® 5, a multifunctional ingredient that is ECOCERT and COSMOS approved.
A biotechnology company that produces ingredients for active compounds for skin and hair care according to a biotechnological process derived from plant stem cells. Plant stem cells' regenerative potential for repairing damaged tissue and ability to regenerate from a single stem cell are the basis of Vytrus Biotech's product portfolio. Plan stem cells can be obtained from accurately selected plant tissues (explants) through a designed process of cellular reprogramming (de-differentiation).
Greener soaps and detergents. Method's products are made from at least 70% natural, biodegradable, and compostable organic compounds. These organic compounds degrade in 28 days or less. When the product is composted, it breaks down to only benign compounds. Harsh chemicals are not used in the manufacturing process. The surfactants used in their products are biodegradable and derived from plants; they include laureth-7, decyl glucoside, and lauryl glucoside. The colorants in their products are also non-toxic and biodegradable and are included in ultra-low concentrations.
Phytoglycogen sustainably extracted from kernels of sweet corn for cosmetic applications. This phytoglycogen is a highly branched polysaccharide with a unique spherical dendrimer structure that has similar effects to animal-derived glycogen. Phytoglycogen is non-toxic, hypoallergenic, and biodegradable. The product promotes collagen and hyaluronic acid production in skin cells by increasing cellular metabolism, reducing wrinkles and fine lines, and improving skin hydration.
Biocatalytic process for the synthesis of esters. Esters are important ingredients in cosmetics and personal care products. Traditional esters manufacturing requires strong acids and potentially hazardous solvents and produces undesirable byproducts that require energy-intensive purification. Using immobilized enzymes at mild temperatures as an alternative, Eastmen saves energy and avoids dangerous chemicals. This process produces no undesirable by-products, and the enzymes are easily removable via filtration.
Naturally derived surfactant from the fruit of the Indian Soapnut Tree. Nisarg™ Soapnut Extract is naturally extracted from saponins from the Indian Soapnut tree. Soapnut is a commonly used surfactant in Asia and Native America due to its water-soluble and fat-soluble components. Soapnut is a milder surfactant than traditional sulfonated synthetic surfactants because its pH is more balanced with the skin's natural pH, resulting in less irritation and dryness. Soapnut can be used in shampoos, shower foams, facewash, toothpaste, hair colorants, and other personal care products.
