Zemea® for Cosmetic & Personal Care Applications

    Zemea® propanediol, a naturally-derived ingredient for cosmetics

    Zemea® propanediol is a versatile, 100% plant-based humectant for cosmetic formulations. Its benefits include high purity, lack of skin irritation or sensitization, improved humectancy and excellent sensory characteristics. Studies also have shown that Zemea® propanediol can boost the efficacy of preservatives and potentially reduce the amount of preservatives needed in formulations.


    Zemea® propanediol is certified natural by the Natural Products Association (NPA) and considered a naturally-derived organic ingredient under the definitions of ISO 16128-1. It can replace petroleum-based glycols such as propylene glycol, butylene glycol and glycerin in formulations.

    Benefits of Zemea® propanediol include:

    • Humectant
    • Solvent
    • Emollient
    • Hand-feel modifier
    • Viscosity enhancer
    • Preservative booster
    • Botanical extraction and dilution
    • Carrier for active cosmetic ingredients
    • Natural ester in cosmetic ingredients
    • Cosmetic ingredient in natural preservative systems

    Zemea® is perfect for:

    • Antimicrobial stabilizer
    • Botanical extracts
    • Cationic conditioners
    • Cosmetic & personal care actives
    • Dyes & pigments
    • Naturally derived polymer thickeners
    • Novel cosmetic solvents
