Innovation is not just about science. It is also about improving the way we develop ingredients and offering products that provide a responsible way to consume. BASF initiated the exploration of rambutan tree’s various cosmetic properties, with the ambition to ensure a sustainable use of the resource and generate a positive impact on the supply chain development. Based on the rambutan resource (Nephelium lappaceum), BASF developed three new bioactives. Rambuvital™ is an extract of rambutan seeds which vitalizes and protects both the scalp and hair follicle against pollution.
