As both a humectant and antimicrobial component, the multifunctional ingredient pentylene glycol plays a key role in the development of safe, stable, and effective cosmetic products while also contributing to a product’s sensory profile, as Cosphatec explains
The cosmetics industry is evolving rapidly. In a market shaped by regulatory change, consumer awareness, and ecological responsibility, formulators must find ingredients that fulfil a wide range of expectations - technical, ethical, and sensorial.
Pentylene glycol, a well-established multifunctional ingredient, addresses precisely these multifaceted requirements.
