Gattefossé pushed the limits of its patented wax butter technology to develop the most advanced and robust version of Gattefossé ingredients from wax butters, Emulium® Dolcea MB.

Jojoba and sunflower waxes used in Emulium® Dolcea MB react with vegetable polyglycerol to create a 100% natural origin O/W emulsifier, which bring moisturizing benefits due to the vegetable waxes and true sensory identity.

Biodegradability:

The composition of Emulium® Dolcea MB has been carefully chosen to ensure excellent biodegradability
97% of a cream containing Emulium® Dolcea MB has been biodegraded after only 28 days

Formulation:

Emulium® Dolcea MB can be added to the oil phase preferentially, or to the water phase if necessary. Robust, it is capable of emulsifying and stabilizing emulsions with up to 40% of oil phase. In the form of pellets, it is very easy to formulate, does not require high shear mixing and enables the creation of very fine emulsions (5-10 µm).
