Expertise in plant extraction
Plants have been at the heart of Expanscience's developments & innovations for the past 75 years. We are renowned for our expertise in molecular distillation, a process that concentrates the noble molecules of vegetal oils, enabling us to offer the cosmetics industry a wide range of liposoluble active ingredients.
This expertise is the result of the dedication of our Innovation, Research & Development (IR&D) team, who are constantly working to improve our eco-processes.
We also rely on biotechnologies and green extraction processes, enabling us to offer safe and effective cosmetic active ingredients.
To take good care of the skin, you first need to know it well.
Our expertise in the fields of the physiology of the skin and the development mechanisms of the different skin layers is well established, and our research programs make a major contribution to this.
All our active ingredients undergo rigorous scientific studies. For each one, we study its influence on the skin through in vitro, in vivo and clinical tests.
Let's go even further, with 0 waste!
Expanscience's Natural Active Ingredients business was born in 1977 with the upcycling of our Avocado Oil, a by-product of our pharamaceutical activity. What was then, a waste product was transformed into effective active ingredients for the cosmetics industry!
Today, upcycling is still part of our DNA. We offer different activite ingredients from 5 upcycled supply chains, and this approach is fully integrated into our eco-socio-design process. This allows us to limit our impact on the environment, by avoiding the creation of new crops and the collection of new plant sources.
