Preservative-Free Botanical Sensory & Texturizing Agents
The Carbogreen Platform is a family of 100% botanical polymeric texturizers, where plant-derived polysaccharides (gums, starches, and mucilages) are interconnecting in three dimensions to form a stable molecular network. This exclusive technology creates structures capable of retaining large amounts of water, yielding unique textures, rheology modification, and a superior skin feel without any "roll-off" effect.

Self-care has evolved into a wellness ritual. Carbogreen is not just a thickener; it is an essential tool to design sensory experiences that connect cosmetic products directly to emotional well-being. Our APPLICATION LABORATORY provides direct technical support to ensure your product's final sensory profile matches your exact vision.
Replaces traditional synthetic polymers (such as acrylates and derivatives) with a clean, sustainable, 3D botanical network free of microplastics, maintaining viscosity stability.
Delivers a wide range of sensory experiences in final formulations, from lightweight serums to bouncing sticks, cream-gels, and rich creamy textures.
Significantly reduces the heavy, greasy sensation caused by high concentrations of oils, waxes, and plant butters, delivering elegant textures with fast absorption.
Enables the elimination of silicones in formulations while preserving a smooth skin feel, resulting in greener and more minimalist formulations.
In line with preservative-free beauty trends, its dry powder form requires no added preservatives prior to formulation.
Can be easily processed on the bench in two practical ways: sprinkled gradually into water under agitation, or pre-dispersed in humectants (glycerin/glycols) to guarantee smooth, lump-free systems.
A versatile texturizer providing a dry, velvety touch, ideal for lightweight creams and facial serums. In hair care, it offers softness and excellent slip without causing build-up or weighing hair down. Optimizes blow-drying by provenly reducing hair dryer drying time by up to 13.5% - 15%.
| INCI Name | Zea Mays (Corn) Starch (and) Caesalpinia Spinosa Gum (and) Algin |
| Sensory / Hair | Velvety touch, light anti-frizz, blow-dry enhancer. |
| Use Level | 0.8% to 3.0% |
A distinctive rheological agent that promotes a striking elastic "quick-break" effect with a rapid, refreshing release upon spreading. Due to structured Carrageenan in its network, it reacts uniquely with organic salts (such as citrates and potassium salts), enabling solid jelly textures with elastic shape memory.
| INCI Name | Zea Mays (Corn) Starch (and) Cyamopsis Tetragonoloba (Guar) Gum (and) Sodium Carrageenan |
| Sensory / Skin | Firm jelly texture, refreshing watery break, lightweight finish. |
| Use Level | 0.5% to 2.5% (Up to 10% for solid jellies) |
Engineered to impart rich body and consistency, directly responsible for aerated, whipped-cream textures in emulsions. Features a non-hygroscopic nature, making it an ideal carrier matrix for dry cosmetics and loose powder facial cleansers, adding rich creaminess and foam density upon water activation.
| INCI Name | Oryza Sativa Rice Starch (and) Cyamopsis Tetragonoloba (Guar) Gum (and) Algin |
| Sensory / Base | Whipped cream texture, highly nourishing, stable loose powder vehicle. |
| Use Level | 0.8% to 4.0% (Up to 50% as powder vehicle) |
High-viscosity variant with maximum colloidal suspension power. Creates dense, voluminous textures with a sophisticated marshmallow feel or whipped body butter effect. In hair care, it serves as an excellent natural replacement for synthetic silicones, reducing frizz and delivering high curl definition for type 3 (curly) and type 4 (coily) hair.
| INCI Name | Oryza Sativa Rice Starch (and) Tapioca Starch (and) Cyamopsis Tetragonoloba (Guar) Gum (and) Algin |
| Sensory / Hair | Marshmallow effect, high curl definition, silicone replacement. |
| Use Level | 0.5% to 3.0% |
Replaces synthetic thickeners like PEG 90M with a natural, high-performance alternative. Carbogreen EO also replaces silicones in hair mask formulas to reduce frizz and brittle hair effect.
In leave-on formulas, Carbogreen QB is proven to reduce hair drying time by 13.5%. It is a high-performance, fully biodegradable ingredient that simplifies formulation and offers convenience to consumers.
