This prestigious award celebrates PolymerExpert’s pioneering work in the field of polymer innovation and highlights its ongoing commitment to advancing material science. Over the last decade, PolymerExpert has invested heavily in research and development, resulting in breakthroughs that address some of the most complex challenges in polymer science. The company’s state-of-the-art R&D facilities and expert teams have helped position PolymerExpert as a global leader in the polymer manufacturing sector.

Founded in 2000 by Marc Dolatkhani and based in Pessac (Gironde, France), PolymerExpert is an innovative company specialized in the development and marketing of high-tech polymers. It offers a range of high value-added products for cosmetics (with high-performance polymers of natural origin for applications such as skin care, sun protection and make-up) and healthcare markets (for implantable and non-implantable ophthalmic and medical devices).

With the beauty standards moving towards naturalness, PolymerExpert is committed to helping cosmetic industries and consumers prepare for the upcoming reality. From responsibly sourced natural ingredients to carefully designed molecules and process, we promote the ecodesign of ingredients as the way to reach respectful and circular beauty.

Polysaccharide, a biopolymer which is composed of covalently linked sugar molecules, is the largest resource of polymer from the nature. Thanks to its availability, biocompatibility and biodegradability, polysaccharide could replace synthetic polymers in many domains: one best example is cosmetics. At PolymerExpert, we have already a product portfolio for cosmetic, especially our recent products: EstoGel® Green, which is a 100% biobased oil phase gelling agent. For enriching our portfolio of cosmetic products, polysaccharide could be a very promising resource of raw material.
