With increasing consumer demand for sustainable products, the fragrance market is under pressure to replace petrochemical solvents with organic, renewable, and safe alternatives, particularly in the air care sector. Similarly, the home care industry is looking for high-performing and competitive sustainable alternatives to use in their products, especially those used for surface care.
Solvay’s solution is Augeo®, an innovative line of solvents developed from glycerin. These bio-based solvents are aligned with the strictest global legislation and are even made with vegan raw materials, aligning with another key consumer trend. Made from a renewable source, they are sustainable, with a low carbon footprint, and non-toxic, providing a safer alternative to traditional solvents while maintaining the same high level of performance.
