      What we do

      Cosphatec takes care of skin tolerance and of nature at the same time. We use bio-degradable raw materials that are derived from sustainable and natural sources. These are all tested according to the highest German quality standards to guarantee the best possible effect on the skin.

      All of our raw materials are vegan and do not contain any GMO.
      The core products are approved by COSMOS and we source our palm oil strictly following RSPO standards.
      All Cosphatec raw materials reliably cover the essential needs of cosmetic formulators: microbial stability, antioxidative stability as well as stability for emulsions and viscosity.

      Benefit from natural stability for modern cosmetics!

      Natural Thickening & Gelling Agents

      HIGH-QUALITY XANTHAN GUMS

      In the eyes of formulators, we offer the best xanthan gums on the market. All natural and vegan, highly transparent, highly stable and easy to disperse with exceptional rheologic behaviour. Cosphaderm® Xanthan Gums have an excellent impact on sensory profiles without causing any sticky feeling. Replace carbomers and avoid microplastics with a natural and vegan gelling agent – Cosphaderm® KG is your ideal choice for the best viscosity increasing material that nature offers.

      Cosphaderm® KG

      Cosphaderm® KG is a natural, NON GMO, food-approved glucomannan derived from konjac flour (Amorphophallus konjac). The water-soluble, high-molecular-weight glucomannan polysaccharide consists of D-mannose and D-glucose units. Shorter side chains and acetyl groups are randomly distributed along the glucomannan backbone. Cosphaderm® KG displays strong thickening efficiency and gel formation properties especially useful for viscous formulations like styling or shaving gels. At concentrations of 1% in water, viscosity yields from 20,000 cP to more than 40,000 cP with a high plasticity can be achieved.
