Building on 15 years of expertise in zeolites, SAES Chemicals has introduced its new brand, ZeoSAES, featuring advanced, non-nano, and inorganic cosmetic ingredients. This innovative range was launched at the in-cosmetics Global event in Paris in 2024, following earlier introductions at in-cosmetics Korea in Seoul in July and in-cosmetics Latin America in São Paulo, Brazil, in September. The company aims to transform the cosmetics industry with unique textures and functionalities. Leveraging its extensive experience in various industries, SAES Chemicals positions itself as a leader in developing cutting-edge solutions for different sectors.

Pioneering Green Chemistry in Cosmetic Innovation

The new ZeoSAES line represents a significant leap forward in sustainable beauty products. SAES Chemicals' deep knowledge in manipulating zeolite particles allows for precise control over their structure, size, shape, pore distribution, and surface properties. This meticulous approach ensures that the materials remain contaminant-free and maintain their non-nano status, making them safe and environmentally friendly for cosmetic applications. The company's commitment to green chemistry aligns perfectly with the growing consumer demand for eco-conscious products.

ZeoSAES ingredients are produced through environmentally friendly processes, free from heavy metals, vegan, and cruelty-free. They meet the stringent standards of major global retailers. Each ingredient offers distinct benefits, enhancing product performance while addressing sustainability concerns. For instance, ZeoSAES Texturizer provides an airy lightweight feel, while ZeoSAES Soft Focus minimizes skin imperfections. ZeoSAES Whipped creates a luxurious creamy texture, and ZeoSAES UV Booster enhances sunscreen effectiveness. These innovations replace traditional fillers and texturizers, delivering a superior sensory experience that appeals to environmentally conscious consumers.

Expanding Applications and Supporting Formulators

Beyond current uses, SAES Chemicals envisions a broader role for zeolites in skincare formulations. The company is actively exploring their potential as carriers for active ingredients, aiming to introduce novel solutions soon. With 80 years of successful history in scientific and industrial applications, SAES Chemicals brings unparalleled expertise to the cosmetics market. The company's meticulous control over product specifications and continuous investment in R&D ensure exceptional material quality.

To facilitate integration of these innovative ingredients, SAES Chemicals provides comprehensive support to formulators. The ZeoSAES team ensures uniform particle dispersion, critical for optimal performance. Through its formulation lab and demonstration formulas, SAES Chemicals offers practical guidance to help clients incorporate these cutting-edge ingredients into their products. Following its debut at in-cosmetics Global in Paris, SAES Chemicals plans to participate in future events, including the next in-cosmetics Global in Amsterdam in April 2025.

Consumer Spending Habits Persist Despite Inflation Easing

Despite inflation easing, consumer habits formed during the food price surge persist, with shoppers continuing to buy fewer items, according to Kantar Worldpanel. French daily household spending decreased by 0.9% between 2023 and 2024 across various retail formats in a €120 billion market. Notable declines were seen in cleaning products (-1.8%), hygiene and beauty (-3.4%), beverages (-3.4%), and fresh produce (-1.5%). Consumers remain sensitive to higher prices compared to 2022, not fully perceiving the ongoing deflation. Habits from the pandemic and inflation periods—more frequent but smaller basket sizes, favoring store brands—continue. Concerns over purchasing power and economic pessimism further influence this behavior. Specialized retailers are thriving, while socio-economic disparities widen, particularly affecting workers, farmers, intermediate professions, and families with children.
