Evonik_Rheance_Wins_AwardEvonik reinforced its position as a sustainable specialties partner for the personal care and cleaning industry by winning the 2020 Henkel Sustainable Award for the second straight year.

Evonik Demonstrates Sustainability Principles


Evonik’s RHEANCE® One platform of green biosurfactants was recognized in the Beauty Care category for sustainability at the 14th Annual Henkel Awards, which were announced at a gala virtual event during the American Cleaning Industry (ACI) Annual Meeting. Last year, Evonik also won the Henkel Sustainability Award for a novel conditioner with excellent biodegradability that is sourced from natural, renewable materials.

The improvement of human life is at the center of Evonik’s Nutrition & Care division. As the home of the company’s biotechnology portfolio, the development of advanced biomaterials that utilize more sustainable manufacturing and sourcing processes is a core driver of innovation and growth. The Care Solutions business line of Evonik continues to demonstrate these sustainability principles with the development of differentiated products, such as RHEANCE® One.

Henkel also awarded Evonik second place for Best Supply Performance and Best Innovation Contributor. “We are honored to serve as a long-term partner to Henkel and other customers who share our commitment to leverage innovative solutions like RHEANCE® One in order to develop a more sustainable market and better performing products,” said Yann d'Hervé, head of Evonik’s Care Solutions business line.

RHEANCE® One is a glycolipid-based platform of green biosurfactants designed for use in rinse off applications that is 100 percent biodegradable, has excellent foaming and cleansing properties, and is pleasant and mild to the skin. Manufactured with an all-natural, biotechnological process, RHEANCE® One allows customers to create high-performance beauty and personal care products that adhere to the highest standards for sustainability.
