SymDeo® B125- Biodegradable Deodorant


Ten years ago, Symrise has introduced SymDeo® B125, an effective and readily biodegradable deodorant active. It is used in typical underarm cosmetic products and has also proven effective in foot care and many other cosmetic formulations.

Globally, we are observing a growing interest in exploring the impact of personal care products on healthy skin,” said Dr. Florian Genrich, Senior Global Product Manager Micro Protection in the Cosmetic Ingredients Division at Symrise.

Consequently, cosmetic manufacturers are facing continuously increasing expectations from the consumer side, which requires the industry to keep up with state of the art technologies.”

No Negative Impact on the Underarm Biota


Symrise researchers have now been able to show that this deodorant active is microbiome-friendly and does not disrupt the sensitive underarm biota notably. This underlines Symrise´s pioneer position in the field of modern micro protection.

As a manufacturer of cosmetic ingredients, we continuously conduct intensive research on our ingredients and explore new methods, such as in the field of skin microbiome analysis. We are proud to deliver our customers additional benefits also within our existing and versatile product portfolio,” continued Genrich.
