Symrise strengthens anti-dandruff offering with Crinipan PO Plus

Symrise introduces Crinipan® PO Plus, an optimised liquid solution for effective dandruff control.

Crinipan® PO Plus is a versatile and easy-to-handle solution designed to protect the scalp from dandruff and oiliness. Suitable for a wide range of hair and scalp care products, it combines established and modern ingredients. This new launch joins Symrise’s leading portfolio of efficacious solutions for dandruff control. 

By combining the renowned anti-dandruff agent piroctone olamine with modern ingredients such as decylene glycol and 1,2-hexanediol, Crinipan® PO Plus takes a novel, multi-ingredient approach to dandruff control. The product targets Malassezia, helping to reduce dandruff on the scalp and consequently limits redness. The mode of action results from its efficacy against Staphylococcus aureus which also contributes to a reduction of sebum.

Globally approved and easy to use

Formulators can easily handle and use Symrise’s innovative liquid solution, with no heating required to incorporate it into formulations. This sets Crinipan® PO Plus apart from piroctone olamine, which comes in a powder format. The liquid solution works well in clear liquid and solid shampoos, serums, and rinse-off and leave-on conditioners. This makes it ideal for responding to market trends in dandruff control. With its improved solubility, synergistic combination of ingredients, and compliance with global regulations (including China), the product provides diverse benefits to customers and consumers around the world. Various production sites around the world ensure its global availability. 

“We feel delighted to introduce this ready-to-use, effective solution for hair and scalp care formulators,” says Laura Meunier, Global Product Manager at Symrise. “Crinipan® PO Plus makes it easy for manufacturers to deliver confidence to consumers through a cleaner scalp. We are further strengthening our anti-dandruff offering. Also, we are demonstrating our innovative approach to helping tackle the challenges our customers face in today’s fast-moving industry.”
