ON SURFACTANTS
Cosmetics Industry of the Philippines
(CCIP) claims that the domestic
sector is starting to compete with
multinationals, which are currently the
dominant players, led by Unilever with
its core brands Cream Silk, Sunsilk,
Pond’s and Close-Up. Other inter-
national brands are Johnson’s Baby,
Avon, Palmolive Naturals, Nivea Body
and L’Oreal. Splash Corp leads local
cosmetics production with its brands
Skin White, Maxi-Peel, Kolours and
Vitress. Other major local producers
include Suyen Corp, Unilab, Intelligent
Skin Care, Trinidad Cosmetics and
Beauty Elements. The CCIP president
also pointed out a growing diversity in
the product range in response to the
increasing demand for natural
cosmetics. Products derived from
natural ingredients have been
launched by many companies.
Effectively capitalizing on this trend is
the domestic producer Gandang
Kalikasan’s Human Nature brand. All
products by the company are claimed
to be biodegradable and at least 95%
natural, while many are 100% natural.
The products use a variety of
ingredients, including coconut oil,
citronella, lemongrass, passion fruit
and sunflower. Gandang Kalikasan
also introduced CREAMFoam
formulation for its natural shampoos,
which contain local coco nectar and
pure avocado oil designed to keep
hair soft and moisturized. There are
now 26 Human Nature stores across
the Philippines. Use of traditional
Filipino ingredients such as bayabas
and moringa by other Philippine
cosmetics companies is growing.
Euromonitor suggests that skin care
will be the fastest-growing product
sector over the next few years in the
Philippines. Sales are forecast to
reach Philippine Peso 37.2 bn by
2016, which represents a 3.8%
CAGR between 2011 and 2016. One
of the leading local product lines is
Celeteque DermoScience from Unilab.
The increasingly popular keratin
treatments in salons triggered the
launch of Unilever’s Sunsilk Straight
to Perfection and TRESemme salon
formulas. Further innovations are set
to be introduced by the domestic
industry, probably because of the
impact of the ASEAN Economic
Community (AEC), which will provide
opportunities outside of the
Philippines for the local cosmetic

packaging to improve safety
Flotek Industries announces research
initiative and Eclipse IOR acquisition
plans
Since Jan 2013, nearly 5000 US
cases of children, five years and
younger, have been recorded to have
been exposed to laundry packets
from various brands including Procter
& Gamble’s Tide Pods, a detergent,
stain remover and brightener
combined in one small, brightly
coloured package. According to the
American Association of Poison
Control Centers (AAPCC), children
mistook these single-use laundry
packets for candy. As a result, Procter
& Gamble has changed the design of
the plastic tub and bag containers for
these products from clear to opaque
orange for safety. There are also new
icons printed on the front of the
packaging and double latches on the
tubs to reduce the likelihood of
unintended product handling and
exposure.
Flotek Industries Inc has announced
sponsorship of applied research at
Texas A&M University to investigate
the impact of nanotechnology on oil
and natural gas production in
emerging, unconventional resource
plays. Specifically, the research will
focus on the oil recovery potential of
complex nanofluids and select
surfactants under the subsurface
pressure and temperature conditions
of liquids-rich shales.
Elsewhere, Flotek has entered into
a non-binding Letter of Intent to
acquire Keller, TX-based Eclipse IOR
Services LLC, a move that will
significantly expand its enhanced oil
recovery (EOR) initiatives. Eclipse
IOR is a leading provider of enhanced
recovery technologies for oil and
natural gas producers, offering
technologies and services that
include water control polymers for
producing wells, permanent clay
stabilization and alkaline-surfactant
processes for waterfloods, among
others. It also provides a wide-range
of consulting services to its clients in
North America and internationally.

Making the most of marketing: trends
affecting the cosmetics industry
During the in-cosmetics 2013
presentations on marketing trends,
various trends and issues affecting
the cosmetics business were
discussed. Kline & Company valued
the global market for personal care at
$300 bn and reported that it is
growing by 4.5%/y, while the market
for ingredients for personal care is
valued at between $14 bn and $18
bn. While a big portion of sales is
represented by Europe and the USA,
the growth in these regions is actually
behind Japan, China, southeast Asia
and India. In Europe, growth rates for
unpopular antimicrobials, ‘harsh’
surfactants, silicones and parabens
are being dominated by inorganic UV
absorbers, natural emollients and
alternatives to parabens. While the
global beauty industry is valued at
$16 bn, premium brands are
powering ahead to reach $4 bn. In
future, the beauty industry is
expected to see more foam
formulations. A presentation by Mintel
tackled the importance of fragrance in
cosmetics. The manufacturers’ need
for linking scent to functionality is
highlighted. Issues in health and
sustainability were analysed,
including ecolabel usage in cosmetics
and household detergents. Concerns
in ingredients include biocidals and
benzophenone-2. Debates on
sustainable water usage in the
cosmetics industry and the new
Standard ISO 14046 were held.
