DKSH has signed an exclusive distribution agreement with Exsymol, a leading global manufacturer of cosmetic actives for the personal care industry, in Canada.
Zurich, Switzerland, February 12, 2024 – DKSH’s Business Unit Performance Materials, a leading distributor of a wide range of innovative ingredients and specialty chemicals, will provide business development, marketing, sales, logistics, and distribution services for Exsymol’s range of Silanols, Peptides, and Natural Actives designed for skin care, cosmetics, and dermo-cosmetic applications.
Silanols from Exsymol are a range of cosmetic actives which have a core of organic silicium. Silanols reload the skin with silicium and therefore delay the appearance of aging signs as well as offer rejuvenation benefits to the skin for long-term results.
