Cosmébio Ingredient Trophy 2023

This recognition underscores Azelis' unwavering dedication to delivering innovative solutions, combining comprehensive ingredient knowledge with formulation expertise and seamless collaboration with strategic partners like CP Kelco.

The Cosmébio Ingredients Meeting 2023 provided a platform for ingredient suppliers to showcase their innovations to Cosmébio members, with the Ingredient Trophy standing out as a significant accolade within this event.

As a testament to Azelis' commitment to excellence, the Cosmébio Ingredient Trophy was awarded based on the company's in-depth understanding of CP Kelco's KELCOSENS™ PiEL Citrus Fiber. This involved rigorous assessment, research, and analysis of the ingredient's efficacy, functionality, and sustainability. Azelis France Personal Care teams selected this citrus fiber due to its exceptional sustainable credentials, consumer appeal, and the unique value it brings to formulations.

KELCOSENS™ PiEL Citrus Fiber, derived from natural ingredients found in local citrus peels, addresses the need for eco-friendly alternatives to PEG-based and synthetic emulsifiers. Sourced as an upcycled byproduct of the juice industry, this COSMOS-compliant ingredient caters to non-GMO, vegan, Kosher, and Halal preferences.

Functionally, KELCOSENS™ PiEL Citrus Fiber enhances the stability of emulsions, suspensions, and foams. Products formulated with this ingredient exhibit a luxurious richness and smoothness, facilitating easy application onto the body. The resulting textures are smooth, silky, and non-sticky when applied to the skin. Additionally, it can be used alone or in combination with other natural gums to finely tune viscosity.

Azelis' robust collaboration with CP Kelco, coupled with its reputation for delivering exceptional results, positioned the company to advocate for the principal's products and nominate their groundbreaking ingredient for the 2023 Cosmébio Ingredient Trophy. This accolade reinforces Azelis' role as an innovative partner with deep technical expertise, adding significant value to its principals.

The Cosmébio Ingredient Trophy, one of the most esteemed industry awards in France, promotes the recognition of organic and sustainable innovative ingredients. As a prominent ambassador for organic cosmetics, Cosmébio has been a consumer benchmark since 2002, striving to make the benefits of organic cosmetics accessible to a diverse audience while championing sustainability.
