Eco-innovation: Formulating without water

Eco-innovation: Formulating without water
Published on 06/20/2024

Formulating without water by offering concentrated formulas is one of the solutions for eco-designing cosmetic products.

However, solid, powder or oily formats are not necessarily adopted by the majority of consumers.



Today, I'd like to introduce you to a new type of concentrated water-free cleansing galenic, exemplified by the brand new launch from Laboratoire SVR, already listed in the COSMETIKWATCH® database.

- The technology used combines foaming surfactants, oil and a very high level of glycerine, which replaces all the water in the formula.

- The brand boasts an innovative texture, concentrated to 92% natural origin, in an on-the-go format in a 100g tube for 40 showers, equivalent to a 400ml cleansing gel.

- In environmental terms, thanks to this water-free technology, the product is estimated to reduce its logistical carbon footprint by 75%, while retaining its sensorial texture. Albéa Group's packaging features a mono-component EcoFusion Top opening system in a tube incorporating 41% recycled content and Thin Wall technology reducing the weight of the tube.

Does this give you ideas for your next cleaning product?
