Nov 05, 2024Nov 05, 2024

The North American distribution agreement will expand the existing cooperation with Stephenson in the UK, Italy, France, Poland, and the Dach region, including Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.

The agreement will furthermore support Brenntag’s efforts to expand its production portfolio to become a global leader in the distribution of specialties and chemical ingredients in the life sciences markets. It will enable Brenntag to extend its product offering to customers with a portfolio of quality ingredients and multifunctional emulsifiers for beauty and personal care products.

In particular, the new agreement will focus on the distribution of Durosoft, Stephenson’s range of emulsifiers. These naturally derived esters are an alternative to synthetic ingredients, which deliver sustainable, multifunctional performance-driven ingredients for effective skincare and hair care.

Maia Navarrete, Senior Director Personal Care Americas at Brenntag Specialties, commented, “Brenntag is pleased to begin representing Stephenson’s Durosoft line of naturally derived emulsifiers, solubilizers, and emollients. Not only is this a fantastic addition to our beauty and personal care portfolio but the product is strongly aligned with our commitment to delivering innovative and sustainable ingredients to the market.”

Robert Carr, Managing Director at Stephenson, added: “In line with our aim of staying one step ahead of the market, we are constantly growing our portfolio of personal care ingredients.“With Durosoft, we can answer the unique requirements of new product developers and formulation labs around sustainable emulsifiers and solubilizers, offering specific value for natural and sustainable raw material claims. We are excited to work with Brenntag. This partnership strengthens our ability to bring innovative, high-performance solutions to a wider global audience, enabling us to deliver sustainable and impactful results to even more customers."
