UV Absorvers

Cuts UV rays with a stronger emphasis on functionality

Used in sunscreen lotion, cosmetics, and about 80% of plastic products, UV-protection products are now firmly entrenched in the market, and customers tend to be more conscious of functionality. New possibilities for UV absorbers are being explored to respond to changes in people's needs. We are using our flexible ideas and development capacity to our advantage as we target the development of custom-made UV absorbers that will satisfy and please each and every one of our users.
