Vantage Specialty Ingredients, Inc. continues its commitment to providing its trademark Naturally Better Solutions to the personal care market with the development and launch of its first bio-ethylene oxide based product for use in personal care.

Developing more sustainably produced raw materials is one of Vantage’s major strategies for future growth, it said. With this new bio-based feedstock, the company has taken one of its key, proven ingredients and developed a green, non-petroleum based and truly sustainably produced ingredient.

“Continuing with our strategy to develop more sustainable ingredients, this launch further signifies our commitment to our green and sustainable platform of product development,” said Patrick Brueggman, senior vice president and general manager at Vantage. Vantage is dedicated to using sustainable and socially responsible practices across all business units, affirming its promise to being a reliable global supplier.

Liponic Bio-EG-1 is a sustainably produced multifunctional ingredient derived from natural and sustainable feedstocks. RSPO grade glycerin and ethylene oxide that is derived from corn ethanol are utilized to produce this material. Vantage introduced Liponic Bio EG-1 (Glycereth-26) to the market in October.
