Simple ingredients, exacting process
Petroleum jelly, or petrolatum, is a semi-solid blend of highly refined mineral oil and wax. Its value lies in what it does not do: it is stable, does not go rancid and does not react with most active ingredients. On skin it forms a thin protective layer that slows water loss, which is why it appears in so many care products.
The same know-how in heating, mixing and hygienic filling carries over to emulsions such as lotions and creams, and to surfactant liquids such as shampoo. A single site can therefore serve several personal-care product lines with shared utilities and packaging.
- White and yellow petroleum jelly
- Ointment and balm bases
- Body lotions and moisturising creams
- Baby and massage oils
- Shampoos and liquid cleansers
- Technical jellies and greases for industry
Product range and grades are defined with each client.
Highly purified material for ointments and medicated preparations, made under tight hygiene and documentation.
Skin, hair and baby-care products where colour, odour and texture matter to the consumer.
Protective and lubricating compounds where appearance is secondary to performance.
