Luffa 50 Natural - Exfoliating Particle is a 100% natural, biodegradable, GMO-free, and microplastic-free exfoliant made from finely milled luffa fibers. Sourced from the fibrous skeleton of the Luffa cylindrica fruit, this ingredient offers a tonic mechanical exfoliation ideal for invigorating body care. Available in a variety of stable, vibrantly colored (dye-infused) variants, it allows for both visual appeal and functional texture in formulations—ANSI-standardised ISO 16128 and ECOCERT standards. Being anhydrous only, it integrates cleanly into balms, pastes, bars, and scrubs. The fibrous structure gently stimulates skin renewal, boosts circulation, and gives your blend a natural, vegetal sensorial feel.

Alter Emulfaba - Natural - Plant-Based - Emulsifier Powders is a 100 % plant-derived, surfactant-free emulsifier presented as an off-white powder. Sourced from aquafaba (chickpea cooking water), acacia gum, and sclerotium gum, it provides a clean-label, biodegradable solution that is fully compliant with ISO 16128 and COSMOS. It enables formulation of O/W emulsions—from lightweight milks to rich creams—with silicone-like sensory performance, replacing synthetic emulsifiers such as acrylates.
Alter Emulgel - Natural - Plant-Based - Emulsifier is a 100% plant-based powder emulsifier, combining konjac glucomannan, African birch bark extract, and sodium citrate. Its COSMOS- and ISO 16128-compliant formula delivers a silky, silicone-like sensorial experience, enabling the formulation of gel creams and emulsions with no greasy or sticky feel—perfectly replacing acrylate-based emulsifiers.
Alter Gelijac - Natural - Plant-Based - Gelling Agent is a 100% natural, plant-based gelling powder extracted from konjac root (glucomannan). It forms translucent, high-viscosity gels with a smooth, sensorial texture—an ideal replacement for synthetic polymers such as carbomers or PEG-based thickeners. This natural gelling agent delivers clean-label, biodegradable performance and is entirely vegan.
Alter Gelitium - Natural - Plant-Based - Gelling Agent is a 100 % natural, non-ionic plant-based gelling powder obtained via fermentation of the Sclerotium mushroom. This COSMOS-compliant, biodegradable ingredient forms ultra-transparent aqueous gels — ideal for lightweight serums, clear cleansers, and glossy masks. It also functions as a co-emulsifier, stabilizing emulsions by creating a network around oil droplets, effectively replacing synthetic polymers such as carbomers or PEG-based thickeners.
