Awarded Products
Vistanol™ GDHR-Pure
Vistanol™ GDHR-Pure is a 100% plant-derived, high-viscosity oil. Despite being plant-based, it provides a beautiful gloss and shine comparable to lanolin. In hair care formulations, even at low concentrations, it delivers a sensory feel similar to dimethicone. Thanks to these properties, it can be used as a plant-based alternative to lanolin and dimethicone, aligning well with current trends. This innovative concept was highly praised, earning Second Prize in the "Functionals" category of the Natural Products – Raw Materials section at the BSB Innovation Award 2025.
INCI name: Glyceryl Diisostearate/Hydrogenated Rosinate
