Parsippany, NJ, — December 14, 2023 — Applechem is pleased to announce that SorbiThix L-100 has successfully achieved approval for China’s new cosmetic ingredient registration. Leveraging cutting-edge “star polymer” technology, SorbiThix L-100 delivers excellent performance, enhancing thickening across all traditional surfactant systems and seamlessly integrating with modern surfactants like glutamate and isethionate. This milestone not only underscores Applechem’s commitment to meeting global standards but also opens new avenues for formulators seeking state-of-the-art cleansing solutions in the Chinese market.

With so many products now available on the market, consumers expect certain properties and a certain level of performance from the cosmetics and personal care products they use every day. It is expected that these products will be effective, skin-friendly and enjoyable to use, with a pleasant sensory profile. As a result, manufacturers are seeking high-quality ingredients to help them meet these customer demands. 

Solabia further strengthens its position in the cosmetics ingredient market with the acquisition of a majority stake in Applechem, a leader in innovative solutions for the cosmetics industry.
