Personal Care
Safety and mildness are key requirements in today’s personal care industry and are increasingly driving formulators to focus their interest on natural and naturally-derived raw materials. But just being mild and safe is not enough: today’s raw materials should meet an outstanding technological performance as well.
In Sisterna sucrose esters these requirements are combined. Being based on sucrose and vegetable fatty acids, Sisterna sucrose esters are a unique range of high quality, non-ionic emulsifiers with an exceptional performance and mildness to skin and eyes.
Sisterna sucrose esters can offer other unique benefits to personal care formulations, thus offering formulators many advantages in these times of environmental consciousness.

F.A.Q. Personal Care
Sisterna sucrose esters are a unique range of high quality, PEG-free, non-ionic emulsifiers with an exceptional performance, skin feel and mildness. They are made from sucrose and vegetable fatty acids.
Sisterna sucrose esters are used for their following main functions:
- emulsifier for oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions, including lamellar liquid crystalline (LLC) emulsions
- co-emulsifier for water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions
- surfactant
- lipidic phase modifier
Sisterna sucrose esters are suitable for use in natural and vegan cosmetic products and have natural certifications such as COSMOS/Ecocert and NPA. Also the sucrose esters are derived from sustainable palm oil through RSPO MB certification. There may be small variations per grade. Please check each grade to find out if the certification applies.
