Technical seminar
Re-engineering surfactants for waterless beauty: the solid APG-IDS platform
- Technical Seminar Theatre 2, Hall 7, Level 3 (booth 3C130)
- Tuesday, April 14 | 12:40 – 13:10
Join us to explore how the move toward waterless, low impact formats is creating a need for solid surfactant systems with strong foam and refined sensoriality.
We’ll introduce a patented solid APG IDS platform made through low temperature spray drying – concentrated, dust free granules that enhance foam structure and sensory quality. Backed by DFA100 foam analysis and ISO 13299 sensory profiling, it enables high performing bars, powders and powder-to-foam cleansers.

We’re thrilled to be this year’s main sponsor of the Formulation Lab®. Discover our balm‑to‑milk cleanser powered by CalyCare™ Gel 100. It begins as a refreshing gel that glides over the skin, gently lifting makeup, excess oil and impurities.
With water, it transforms into a soft milky emulsion supported by the DUROSOFT emulsifier. It rinses cleanly while helping skin stay hydrated and comfortable. The formula also features a biofermented oil rich in omega‑7 to keep skin nourished and balanced.
