Upcycling! EcoSmooth ™Universal Fluid 1100 is a versatile ingredient for a sustainable & purpose driven brand
Upcycled ingredients are kicking it off in beauty. Once consumers start understanding what an upcycled ingredient is, brands can use these new terms in their communication platforms. Their goal is to enhance the natural derived benefits as well as the positive impact in the environment through circularity.
Achieving a zero-waste goal is a significant challenge for any beauty brand. One solution is to use ingredients made with or from upcycled materials.
Dow is supporting brands' journey toward a more sustainable future, by launching EcoSmooth ™Universal Fluid 1100, a performing material made in part with feedstocks from what is left on the fields of sugar cane or wheat harvests.
