We are excited to present SCH AlgaeTech™ Porphyridium, a new multifunctional and 100% natural cosmetic active, developed by SCH Special Chemicals. This extract of the red microalgae Porphyridium cruentum is obtained through sustainable zero-emission production, and offers hydrating, anti-inflammatory and anti-aging properties, contributing to healthier and more protected skin. SCH AlgaeTech™ Porphyridium is composed of sulfated exopolysaccharides that form a protective barrier on the skin, reducing transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and improving hydration. This active also stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, improving skin elasticity and reducing the signs of aging. In vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated its effectiveness in increasing hydration by 26.4% in just 3 hours and in reducing inflammation. With its natural origin and the sustainable technology that supports its development, SCH AlgaeTech™ Porphyridium represents an excellent option for hydrating, anti-aging and soothing products. We are proud to offer this innovative and sustainable active to the Italian market.
