What solutions does plant-based chemistry provide to the food, agriculture, and cosmetics industries?

Plant-based chemistry meets the growing demand from both consumers and industries for bio-based, renewable, and biodegradable compounds. Ingredients derived from plant chemistry offer performance equivalent to their fossil-based counterparts and are used across numerous sectors.

In the food industry, plant-based emulsifiers and additives improve the functional and sensory properties of food products.
Plant-based solvents are used in the formulation of inks, paints, lubricants, and crop protection products.
Another example: fatty acid esters provide emollient and emulsifying properties to cosmetic products.
