Vollmens Fragrances will debut Voll Caps Care, a microencapsulated eco-friendly fragrance at in-cosmetics Global.
The global hair care market valued at $94 billion in 2024 and projected to grow annually by 5.5% (Euromonitor data). A key challenge is this market is maintaining long-lasting fragrance with proven sustainable technology. Designed for the cosmetic, toiletry, and fragrance industry, Voll Caps Care addresses the challenge of creating sustainable, long-lasting fragrances.
Micro-encapsulation stands as one of the most sophisticated methods for preserving fragrance characteristics until delivery. However, there are obstacles to ensuring polymeric walls are strong enough for chemical stability and base system resistance. These obstacles intensify when aiming for compatibility with cosmetic bases and sustainable practices.
A technological leap for hair fragrances
Making its debut at in-cosmetics Global in Amsterdam, Voll Caps Care offers a sustainable microencapsulation system. The system is based on biodegradable additives and eco-friendly polymers. Ideal for leave-on hair care formulations, it enables:
- Fragrance protection from external degradation and evaporation.
- Long-lasting scent performance of up to 24 hours, released through friction.
- Enhanced consumer experience, focused on well-being.
- Dermatologically approved safety.
Proven effective through testing
Rigorous testing compared free fragrance with the Voll Caps Care microcapsules applied to hair strands over intervals of up to seven days. The results revealed:
- Exceptional fragrance longevity, maintaining intensity after 24 hours.
- Continuous scent release even after 7 days.
