The one-of-a-kind multifunctional ingredient is a clear, colorless neat ingredient that can go into a variety of traditional or natural/green cosmetic formulations, and works with all skin types.

With Hydrolite® 7 green, Symrise offers an exclusive high purity bio-based liquid multifunctional, whose multiple benefits reduce formulation complexity while improving finished product properties. A robust portfolio of patent applications underlines its unique properties and ensures future global security of use for Symrise customers.

We feel proud to present this latest member of our portfolio of quality products”, explained Dr. Balint Koroskenyi, global product manager at Symrise. “It makes a complementary addition to the range of alkanediols and to the best multifunctionals overall.”

Benefits of Hydrolite® 7 green


The distinctive and optimal chain length of Hydrolite® 7 green enables water solubility and a liquid form that combines easy handling with high performance. It suits conventional as well as green formulations and has many key benefits including:

  • Antioxidant enhancer for increasing the activity of antioxidants, such as tocopherol
  • Excellent solubilizer of lipophilic cosmetic ingredients
  • Product protection enhancer in synergy with many preservatives

Symrise R&D has spent years developing Hydrolite® 7 green in order to address our customers’ expectations and to meet our high standards of quality.

As a result, this truly novel and unique multifunctional ingredient will make its debut in cosmetics in 2021”, said Imke Meyer, vice president global innovation cosmetic ingredients at Symrise.
