| “The beauty industry is at the forefront of driving product development and processes for a more sustainable sector, particularly when it comes to the development of oleochemicals used in the cosmetic and personal care industry. Enabling growth in the sector rests on the adoption of sustainable technologies and raw materials that are non-toxic, non-irritating, biodegradable, and sourced from vegetal origins. Key to this transformation is the ability to reduce emissions by focusing on reducing water usage, working temperatures, and keeping track of changing industry requirements such as EUDR and certification. In our upcoming article we unpack some of the key issues that can impact, driving purpose and future growth for the industry.” |
