New for 2009

The SensiMap™ Formulating Concept. The sensory profile of emulsion formulations can be optimised by intertwining complementary sensory cues from two seemingly unrelated technologies: Carbopol® polymers to impact the texture element of sensory cues, particularly during the initial application, and Schercemol™ esters to enhance sensory cues from rub-out through afterfeel.
