Partners since 2022, Squarexpert, Tectic and Rheonis, specialists in formulation, processes and material behavior respectively, are innovating. To their credit: the design of a compact machine for automatic, instant preparation of industrial-quality textured products. This \"micro-factory\" for cosmetic products was recently the subject of a patent application protecting a technical process and devices for the automatic and instant preparation of industrial-quality textured products from solid concentrates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Responding to the challenges of \"water sobriety\", this technology - which combines manufacturing and packaging operations for textured products in a single step, on demand, in variable volumes - opens up new horizons for the development of bulk and reuse, reducing the use of plastic packaging and environmental costs, while providing a new customer experience at points of sale, places of use or at home.<\/p>

\"The absence of a mechanical mixing device considerably reduces cleaning requirements, enabling high-speed product preparation at the point of sale for potentially diverse galenicals, from a single brand or several. The technology also makes it possible to customize products by adding colorants, flavors and other special ingredients on demand. At home or at the point of use, it becomes possible to have freshly reconstituted cosmetics, potentially free of preservatives and without intermediate packaging\".<\/em>The designers are confident about the economic potential of their innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The use of precursors in solid form (loose or compacted powders) offers the prospect of significant space savings at points of sale, as well as substantial savings in logistics and environmental costs\".<\/em>they add.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently in the prototype stage, the technology - dubbed NeoCosm - is said to be capable of producing 100ml of homogeneous, stable gelled product in less than a minute from commercial or proprietary powder formulations and water. R&D work is currently underway for the preparation of other galenicals, as well as for other industrial applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The prospects opened up by NeoCosm technology for the development of eco-responsible consumption require, in addition to the technical challenges, the implementation of innovative business models and the structuring of an industry. Squarexpert, Tectic and Rheonis are planning to set up a start-up to support and promote the development of this technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Powder-liquid coJetting (PLcJ) process<\/strong>

<\/strong>NeoCosm's technology is based on the patented Powder-Liquid coJetting (PLcJ) process of localized contact between directed flows of powders and liquids to produce industrial-quality textured products.

With no need for mechanical homogenization, reduced energy consumption and reduced cleaning requirements, this process, which can be implemented in small household appliances, vending machines and industrial processes, opens up the possibility of continuous, on-demand production of products with customized galenics and textures.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
