SonneNatural™ Fluidity consist of our 100% biobased (ASTM D6866) liquid Renewable White Alkanes. Developed and produced using groundbreaking patented technology, with feedstock sourced from our backward integrated facility at scale, we enable personal care and Household, Industrial and Institutional formulators to use natural ingredients in finished formulations.
SonneNatural™ Fluidity 40P is readily biodegradable (OECD 301B), 100% biobased (ASTM D6866) as well as Kosher, Halal, and Vegan certified and is leaping bunny compliant. The natural origin index of 1 (ISO 16128) confirms the natural origin of this product, with no genetically modified materials (PCR testing). SonneNatural™ Fluidity 40P is an excellent replacement for cyclic siloxanes known for their poor carbon footprint and their safety and environmental hazards. With SonneNatural™ Fluidity 40P customers can reduce their carbon footprint (cradle to gate) by up to 68%* versus cyclic siloxanes.
SonneNatural™ Affinity covers our 100% plant-based waxy emollients, also considered natural petrolatum alternatives, using plant-based feedstock in place of mineral-oil derived feedstock.
SonneNatural™ Affinity Palm Free and Duro do not contain palm-derived feedstock, in recognition of the reduced sustainability profile associated with certain palm-derived ingredients.
SonneNatural™ Affinity One contains a palm element, sourced from RSPO-certified suppliers only, making it a sustainable palm-containing product.
All three SonneNatural™ Affinity products have a natural origin index of 1 (ISO 16128) and are well-suited for finished products demanding natural origins.
SonneNatural™ Synergy are hybrid products. Partially biobased, SonneNatural™ Synergy products contribute to the sustainability journey of our customers, developed as an intermediate to support both cost and compatibility considerations.
