Symrise has announced the launch of Crinipan® PMC green, novel anti-dandruff active in an online webinar. The new molecule’s efficacy is based on an innovative mode of action, and it shows comparable results to established anti-dandruff actives.
Ingredient Targets the Cause of Dandruff
With Crinipan® PMC green, Symrise fulfills consumers desire of more natural and sustainable anti-dandruff active. The new ingredient has clinically proven effectiveness and targets the cause of dandruff with an innovative mode of action: the ingredient´s anti-dandruff effect is activated by the dandruff-causing yeast Malassezia itself.
“
More than 45 years of expertise in the area of Micro Protection enable us to launch Crinipan® PMC green. We also thank Professor Dr. Peter Mayser, a renowned dermatologist and dedicated expert in Malassezia research for his constant support during our joint research project with the University of Giessen on dandruff”, explained Dr. Christin Koch, head of microbiology research at the global innovation cosmetic ingredients division of Symrise.
Presents New Dandruff Control Strategies
The producers of anti-dandruff products mainly had to rely on three established anti-dandruff actives: zinc pyrithione, climbazole and piroctone olamine. Aside from some multifunctional ingredients, no major anti-dandruff active has been released onto the market for decades.
By launching Crinipan® PMC green, Symrise opens up completely new perspectives for cosmetic manufacturers and dandruff control strategies. The manufacturers will be able to achieve benchmark efficacy by using a 100 percent bio-based, environmentally friendly anti-dandruff active.
