Scott Bader Personal Care is boosting its business in Australia and New Zealand through CSA Ingredients – one of the region’s leading distributors of personal care ingredients. The new partnership will offer Texique bio-based additives to formulators searching for the latest rheology modifiers to improve their beauty formulations.

CSA Ingredients offer a wide variety of additives to personal care formulators; therefore, the partnership was a natural fit. Their passion and technical expertise within the personal care industry will deliver a knowledgeable and reliable service across Australia and New Zealand. The two companies also align on their people-focused values, something extremely important to Scott Bader as an employee-owned business.

Mark Stanion, Group Strategic Development Manager for Scott Bader Personal Care, said: “CSA provide an exceptional service to their customers and bring a high level of added value. We are looking forward to working with their team to deliver natural ingredients for formulators across Australia and New Zealand.”

Will McFarlane, Business Manager for CSA Ingredients, said: “Australian Personal Care manufacturers work hard every day to ensure their products are of the highest quality. That’s why our customers rely on us as a key ingredient in their production processes. To enable us to achieve our goal of

being a preferred supplier, CSA Ingredients choose to work with a select number of strategic partners from around the world. We are delighted to partnering with Scott Bader Personal Care to be promoting and distributing their high quality products to the Australian Personal Care Market.”

Scott Bader’s range of bio-based personal care ingredients are both sustainable and high-performing. A good example is their Texique HE additive series, which contain surfactants and oils derived from vegetables rather than established synthetic ingredients which are used by many products in the personal care market. They are also ethylene oxide (EO) free, Vegan friendly and Halal certified, making them ideal formulation choices for viscosity and sensory perfection.
