Breakthrough award for emollient

Amyris has won a SEPAWA Innovation Award 2015 for its Neossance Hemisqualane high-performance emollient.

Neossance Hemisqualane, a sugarcane-derived sustainable alternative to silicones, was chosen for innovation in the field of cosmetics, detergents and perfumery and for its superior performance as an ingredient in skin, hair and sun care, as well as makeup products. Amyris's European cosmetic distributor, Safic-Alcan accepted the award on Amyris's behalf after giving a presentation on Neossance Hemisqualane at the SEPAWA Congress in Fulda, Germany.

"We are honored to receive this award highlighting the high quality and performance of Neossance Hemisqualane, our renewable personal care ingredient," said Caroline Hadfield, senior vice president, Personal Care, at Amyris. "Overall, Amyris's growing portfolio of squalane and hemisqualane-based personal care products are achieving recognition for providing our formulator partners and consumers with the opportunity to use innovative new products with better performance than traditional alternatives and with an added benefit of being better for our planet. Our personal care product sales are experiencing unprecedented growth for Amyris as we further penetrate the global personal care market."
