Betafib®
The natural stabilizer and structuring agent
Betafib® is a biobased structuring agent that we produce using the cellulose from sugar beet pulp – a side stream from the sugar production process that we blended with cellulose gum. It's used extensively as a stabilizer in personal care, skincare, and haircare products. Betafib® is COSMOS approved, natural based and vegan.
Betafib® stabilizes the particles in your formulations to create homogeneous end products.
By adding Betafib® you'll notice it has a positive effect on your products' viscosity, giving a natural, even texture without any blobbiness. What's more, you’ll see it’s compatible with all of your surfactants and actives across a wide range of pH values and in combination with electrolytes.
It's easy to use even in cold production processes, but at higher temperatures, too.
Used in shower products, Betafib® adds a smooth, rich texture and helps stabilize capsules, glitter, and emulsions.
