However, historically, biomaterials have demonstrated performance weaknesses, limiting their adoption and market penetration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IFF\u2019s cutting-edge DEB technology utilizes advanced biotechnology to create unique, structurally diverse polysaccharides like those found in nature, but at scale, with an accuracy and consistency typically only found in traditional industrial polymers. Its new family of advanced tailored biomaterials uses only plant-based sugars, water and enzymes; to open up access to a range of materials with glycosidic linkage control, designed-in molecular weights and morphology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The promising potential of this innovative technology platform has already been demonstrated across several industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Personal Care Applications<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2500 AURIST\u2122 AGC, IFF\u2019s first personal care ingredient enabled by DEB technology can significantly improve both wet and dry combability in conditioning haircare products and is a readily biodegradable alternative to synthetic incumbents. The newly launched conditioning biopolymer won the prestigious gold in the functional ingredients category at the 2023 in-cosmetics Global Innovation Zone Best Ingredient Award.<\/li><li><strong>Home Care Applications&nbsp;<\/strong>\u2500 Lyrature\u2122 is a growing family of nature-inspired, customizable, high-performance biopolymers, designed to pursue 100 percent biodegradable detergents and cleansers. The DEB technology can be applied as cleaning polymers, rheology modifiers and emulsion stabilizers.<\/li><li><strong>Industrial Applications&nbsp;<\/strong>\u2500 Nuvolve\u2122 engineered polysaccharides are currently being developed successfully as performance-enhancing materials for textile and performance additive applications and together with partners across various industries such as packaging, paper and board as well as non-wovens and performance composites. Nuvolve\u2122 solutions are designed to meet the established polymer grade, industry specifications that are expected from fossil-derived products but are typically not met by the traditional biomaterials available today.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>IFF embeds its commitment to circular design across its business as a guiding principle toward creating responsible, sustainable, and closed-loop systems in which materials are reused and waste becomes a resource.
