Umicore’s VALISORB and VALIKAT portfolio offers high-performance zinc compounds engineered to bring freshness and purity to personal care formulations. Our zinc-based odor absorbers, including zinc ricinoleate and zinc neodecanoate, are crafted to form stable, irreversible complexes with odor-causing compounds, effectively neutralizing them. This unique scavenger chemistry is a reliable solution for creating fresh, long-lasting personal care products.

For brands prioritizing sustainability, VALISORB Zn 10 R provides an especially eco-friendly choice. Based on a natural fatty acid, this compound has been safely used for years in cosmetics, offering a trusted and biodegradable solution that aligns with today’s environmental standards.
