Qualipac's expertise at the service of Givenchy's Gloss Interdit Vinyl

Lip gloss - Givenchy

Qualipac put all its expertise in plastics processing into the complete production of the new Givenchy lip gloss. The brand, which is expanding its "Interdit" make-up line, has developed a range of 12 ultra-glossy, colorful shades, for which Qualipac has created a PETG bottle playing on the subtlety of shapes for a luxurious, couture effect. The original combination of a cylindrical interior designed in a square case with thick walls reveals all the sparkle and shine of glossy materials.
Qualipac's technical expertise has enabled it to reproduce textile effects on the top unit, where the famous ribbon, the brand's emblem, is finely engraved in relief in the mold and elegantly highlighted by silver hot stamping. The Givenchy logo engraved on the top of the hood completes the decor with refinement.
Qualipac has also designed the transparent tigelle and G-stamped applicator foam tip of this high-end gloss. The unique shape of the applicator tip provides extra texture for a pleasant, even application of color: an unprecedented application gesture that makes up lips in a single stroke for flawless precision.

ANJAC HEALTH & BEAUTY strengthens its expertise in premium cosmetics with the acquisition of Pascual Cosmetics

Lipstick - Cosmetics industry

Industrial group Anjac Health & Beauty announces the acquisition of Pascual Cosmétiques, specialized in lipstick and liquid make-up (foundation, gloss, eyeshadow, nail polish). A growing family business, Pascual Cosmétiques has high ambitions. In 2017, it recorded sales of €6 million, a result that has tripled in three years. This latest operation enables Anjac Health & Beauty to strengthen its expertise in premium cosmetics, six months after the acquisition of Aircos, a leader in high-end make-up powder. The group now offers a complete industrial offering in the make-up field, becoming a French benchmark in Europe.

Anjac Health & Beauty further accelerates its development

The group consolidates its expertise in the make-up sector and once again relies on French industrial quality. The acquisition of Pascual Cosmétiques comes just a few months after the integration of Aircos, the SME which had enabled the group to position itself in this sector. Anjac Health & Beauty is now able to propose a premium industrial offer, covering the main make-up market segments.
This latest operation illustrates Anjac Health & Beauty's ability to pursue dynamic and relevant growth in the health-beauty-hygiene sectors. "The acquisition of Pascual Cosmétiques is perfectly in line with our ambition to confirm Anjac Health & Beauty's position as a major player in the European make-up market", explains Aurélien Chaufour, the Group's Managing Director, "after the acquisition of Aircos, the acquisition of Pascual Cosmétiques once again demonstrates our ability to attract key players in these sectors. It also contributes to our ambition to build a group of high value-added companies with a strong capacity for innovation".

Pascual Cosmétiques strengthens Anjac Health & Beauty's expertise in the make-up sector

With its established industrial credibility in the make-up market, Pascual Cosmétiques brings valuable know-how that complements the expertise already mastered by Anjac Health & Beauty. This will enable the group to enter the lipstick and lip stick parapharmacy segment, as well as the liquid make-up segment (foundation, gloss, eyeshadow, nail polish).
The French SME has enjoyed strong growth since the creation of its cosmetics division in 2010. The gradual diversification of its offering, combined with increased R&D activity, has enabled it to offer an increasingly comprehensive range of services. The steady rise in sales over the past three years confirms its success. In 2017, Pascual Cosmétiques acquired a new building in Ferrières-en-Brie: a 5,000m2 factory, to intensify its production, adjoining an R&D laboratory, whose surface area has been multiplied by three.

This investment also strengthens the local roots of the company, which has been based in this Seine-et-Marne town for 17 years. "Historically based in the Paris region, Pascual Cosmétiques boasts made-in-France expertise in the formulation and design of cast and liquid forms of make-up and skincare products. This expertise has been acquired thanks to the work of its CEO Simon Pascual and his employees. All these attractive assets confirmed our decision to integrate the SME into our group", underlines Aurélien Chaufour.
Pascual Cosmétiques now benefits from Anjac's support to accelerate its R&D. Encouraging the SME's capacity for innovation will be one of the Group's priorities, enabling it to reach a new stage in its development. To achieve this, the Group will be able to count on an expert, agile team of 60 scientists, who will remain fully involved in the company's development.

Founder and Managing Director Simon Pascual is stepping down to devote himself to personal projects: "I'm very proud of the work I've done to bring Pascual Cosmétiques to this level. I have always worked to position the company in growth sectors and encourage innovation. Joining Anjac Health & Beauty will enable us to further intensify our development. I'm leaving the company in good spirits. I have every confidence in the group to continue writing the history of the SME.

Grégoire Huet, currently in charge of Business Development at Anjac Health & Beauty, will take over as General Manager of Pascual Cosmétiques: "Our aim is to rapidly make Pascual Cosmétiques one of the benchmarks in make-up, by drawing on the strength of the group. The skills and dynamism of our existing teams will be essential to the success of this project.

SEPPIC launches the first nutricosmetic active ingredient dedicated to reactive skin

Face - Stock photography

At Vitafood 2018 in Geneva, Seppic launches Sepibliss, the first nutritional active dedicated to sensitive and reactive skin.
Today, 50 % of the population suffer from sensitive skin problems. This phenomenon is global and growing, due to multiple aggressions such as pollution, atmospheric conditions, emotional stress and dietary practices. Sepibliss offers a new way of tackling this problem, by providing oral relief for these reactions.
Formulated as a dietary supplement, Sepibliss soothes the sensations of reactive and sensitive skin (irritation, redness, etc.) on the face and body in a single step.

Sepibliss meets current consumer expectations for naturalness, traceability and proximity. It is a virgin, additive-free 100 % coriander seed oil, eco-extracted and produced locally in south-western France. Sepibliss is also the first nutritional active ingredient to be the subject of dedicated studies on the various mechanisms involved in skin reactivity. Its skin-soothing activity has been demonstrated on an in vitro model. This product is in line with Seppic's strategy of offering innovative, natural and eco-responsible products.
Claire Notin, Nutrition Marketing Manager, comments: "We are proud to offer the first nutritional active developed specifically for sensitive skin. This launch confirms Seppic's innovative role in nutricosmetics, supported by our expertise in skin biology and our knowledge of the cosmetics market."

 

Texen creates the new Dior Addict Lacquer Plump

Dior Addict Hairspray Stick - Dior

This spring, the House of Dior presents its first plumping lacquered lip ink. Available in 16 shades, this new-generation product is positioned between make-up and skincare, for a glossy, resistant finish. Texen Industries was entrusted with the production of the pack, a multi-challenge project.

Special attention to the bottle
This new range consists of a bottle injected in two operations.
First step: A PETG mold incorporates a black aluminum cap. The cut-out features the brand name, and the preform simulates the contours of a lipstick grape. The graphic cut-out of the logo subtly reveals the color of the bulk.
The second operation is to over-mold the part to give it its final square shape. The bottle is then protected by a varnish.

Injection molding and assembly
The PBT collar is injected, then metallized and automatically welded to the bottle.
The hood comprises 4 assembled parts: the silver-metallized ABS-injected ball top,
The two-color PETG injected cap is then varnished, and the injected stem is fitted with the applicator selected by the House of Dior.

Technical prowess
For Texen Industries, the N°1 challenge lies in the creation of the bottle. Texen Industries is extremely meticulous when it comes to overmolding, ensuring a perfect surface finish and maximum brilliance, with no bubbles or water droplets.
The House of Dior puts its soul into every one of its products. It pays the utmost attention to every stage in the manufacture of its products.
A close collaboration between the teams of the Texen Industries division and the House of DIOR contributed to the success of this production.

Croda wins ICIS Surfactants Award for Sustainability

Croda International - Surfactant

Croda International Plc celebrates winning the ICIS Surfactants Award for Sustainability for its pioneering bio-ethylene oxide plant.
Croda, a manufacturer of high-performance ingredients and technologies, has been chosen to build a bio-ethylene oxide plant at its Atlas Point site in the United States. This plant will enable the manufacture of 100% ethoxylates of biosourced origin, and will be the first of its kind in the USA. Called "ECO", the surfactants produced by this plant will be 100% of renewable and biosourced origin, and will have a lower carbon footprint than petrochemical-derived ingredients, while maintaining identical performance.
The ceremony, held at the ICIS World Surfactants Conference, recognizes excellence and innovation in the surfactants industry. The Sustainability Award targets the contributions of a product, process or supply chain. Surfactants, and more specifically ethoxylates, are used in a whole range of different markets, from cosmetics and detergents to lubricants and plant protection, all of which are meeting growing consumer demand for products with a higher biobased content while maintaining their efficacy. This new ECO range replaces the use of petrochemical-derived ethylene oxide with a corn-derived bio-ethanol derivative.
Terry Thistlethwaite, Vice President Sustainability at Croda commented: "This award highlights yet another example of our commitment to offering our customers the ability to meet growing consumer demand for more environmentally sustainable, bio-based products. Sustainability is an integral part of our business, and this new plant is a demonstration of our commitment to investing in innovative and sustainable solutions.
