DKSH has expanded its exclusive distribution agreement with Alchemy Ingredients, a UK-based specialist in naturally-derived, vegan, and COSMOS-certified functional raw materials, to France.
The deal will see DKSH strengthen the growth of Alchemy’s innovative portfolio of emulsifiers, thickeners, surfactants, and stabilizers in the French personal care market, building on a successful collaboration across Asia.
DKSH will provide marketing and sales, distribution and logistics, and after-sales services for Alchemy Ingredients’ complete portfolio.
This includes innovative emulsifiers for oily gels and microemulsions, thickeners for both oil and aqueous phases, mild and nourishing surfactants, and multifunctional stabilizers and solubilizers, designed to meet the growing demand for sustainable and high-performance personal care solutions.
Building on a successful collaboration with DKSH in Asia, covering India, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam, Alchemy Ingredients has chosen DKSH to expand its presence to Europe.
This decision is driven by DKSH’s strong market presence, formulation expertise, and deep understanding of the French personal care sector.
Caroline Recardo, Technical Director & Founder, Alchemy Ingredients, commented: “We are very excited to partner with DKSH, who already represent us in many Asian markets.
“Their strong position in France, combined with their technical expertise and customer focus, will help us penetrate this important market, from the smallest formulators to the largest manufacturers,” she added.
“With a distribution style that mirrors Alchemy’s own, emphasizing deep product knowledge and a strong focus on formulations, DKSH is uniquely positioned to bring our innovative ingredients to a broad spectrum of customers and support our expansion in Europe.”
