SEIWA KASEI’s Business Operations
Research and development-oriented chemical manufacturing company that develops and manufactures raw materials primarily used in cosmetics.
The research history of the company, which is widely known as a well-established manufacturer, began in the 1960s with its development of hydrolyzed collagen (collagen peptide) as raw material for cosmetics. We have since evolved and expanded at a rapid rate alongside the development of peptide-applied technologies of peptide derivatives, peptide and silicone hybrids, and ionic complexes with ionic components using the chemical modification method.
We have been aiming to develop raw materials with biochemical functions in new research fields and have started to develop amino acid derivatives and vitamin C derivatives since the early 2000s. Our company has since then created unique and functional raw materials. SEIWA KASEI CO., LTD. is never satisfied with the status quo and will constantly maintain its research to develop new raw materials for cosmetics that are high quality, multifunctional and original.
Being able to produce innovative ingredients is made possible by daily efforts and research.
