Products for hair care

Our hair is especially stressed by dyeing, combing, brushing, hot blow drying or permanent waving. It is also subjected to the same variety of assault from the environment as our skin. Contrary to the skin however, the hair will not send a message of pain due to overexposure telling that a change is occurring. The message is more likely to come after cumulative damages over a summer season. The hair will show poor combability, more split ends, and will become noticeably weaker.

DSM Nutritional Products produces ingredients to protect, vitalize and strengthen hair. We offer our customers in the cosmetics industry a world-leading portfolio of vitamins, UV filters and bioactive ingredients.

  • Panthenol
    also known as Pro-Vitamin B5, is the most frequently added active ingredient to hair care products. It improves the condition of damaged hair, reduces the formation of split ends and gives the hair long-lasting moisturization and shine.
  • UV filters
    are used to protect hair from the assault of the UV radiation ranging from pre-mature fading of hair color to damages on integrity of hair cuticle.
  • Phytantriol
    helps to retain the moisture of the hair by reducing the loss of water from the hair and protects the hair from mechanical damage through combing. It also increases the penetration of Panthenol into the shaft of the hair and lends gloss to dull and damaged hair.
  • TILAMAR®
    DSM Nutritional Products proudly introduced TILAMAR® for hair styling, conditioning and shine.  With over 50 years of experience and success in material science, DSM feels this knowledge is crucial when developing polymer technology for novel applications in hair care and creating an innovative portfolio.  DSM's strong active ingredients, application support and knowledge of consumer needs and trends ensure that hair care manufacturers create successful products.
