Résumé : |
This article will first explore the challenges and limitations of currently available shampoo bar formulations. It will then offer a revolutionary technology which allows improved performance and consumer acceptance, not just for solid shampoos but also for conditioners and other liquid products, instantly dissolving powders, tablets and paper sheets. It offers the persona( care industry the opportunity to re-develop a wide range of existing cosmetic formulations into solid forms.
Shampoo bars and other solid formats are growing in popularity worldwide. The last five years have seen an exponential increase in shampoo bar launches, from around 50 in 2016 to around 700 in 2021. This trend is likely to continue apace due to the unique drivers involved.
Unlike many drivers in our industry, it is clear that sustainability is more than just another fashion trend. The issues are real, widespread and extremely well documented. Furthermore, these issues are not going to go away.
The cosmetics industry is essentially consumer-driven. The needs and wants of the consumer are paramount when developing and marketing new products. In recent years there has been a move away from what has become known as 'greenwashing' towards more ethical considerations. This is, to a large extent, due to a better informed and more environmentally aware consumer base.
The sustainability theme captures a wide range of issues from palm-related deforestation to carbon footprint. It is clear that, currently, shampoo and conditioning bars, powders and tablets offer the consumer a product that ticks a number of boxes : water reduction, reduced carbon footprint and non-plastic packaging to name just a few. They represent a shift away from traditional formulations to a more sustainable and consumer-acceptable range of products. |
