Brenntag Specialties, a global leader for innovative specialty and ingredients distribution in Life Science and Material Science, today announced an exclusive partnership with Calyxia to distribute their microspheres and microcapsules-based solutions to Brenntag Specialties customers around the world.

CalyCare Gel 100 is a cold-processable, biodegradable gelling agent for oil phases that helps simplify cosmetic formulation. Its spherical powder form improves how products spread on the skin and supports a wide range of sensory effects and textures, from light gelled oils to thicker, balm-like consistencies.

It also enhances SPF performance, helps keep ingredients evenly suspended, and extends the release of fragrance. Because it can be processed without heat, it supports more energy-efficient and sustainable production. CalyCare™ Gel 100 can be used in products like skin care, sun care, make-up, and fragrances.

Teresa Harding, Senior Director Strategic Marketing & Innovation, Beauty & Care, Brenntag Specialties, comments: “Representing and showcasing the benefits of Calyxia products to our global customer base is the core of what Brenntag Specialties has to offer. We are delighted to add the unique Calyxia technologies to our portfolio and join forces to capture market opportunities in Beauty and Care around the world.”

Jamie Walters, CEO and co-founder of Calyxia, added: “We are excited to enter in this alliance with Brenntag to make our new biodegradable microspheres, CalyCareTM , available to even more markets worldwide. Combining Brenntag’s market presence and expertise with Calyxia’s cutting-edge technology and solutions, I am convinced we will accelerate our global impact by bringing new sensory experiences to the Beauty & Care industry.”
