PURAFAEST™: Precision Bio-Esters Engineered Ingredients for Green Formulations

Melting Range | Origin | Chemistry

45 – 60°C (Tunable) | 100% Upcycled Rice Bran Wax | VLCFA esters

The Innovation:

PURAFAEST™ is a next-generation range of fatty acid esters derived exclusively from upcycled Rice Bran Wax. Unlike static commodity ingredients, our proprietary process offers a Tunable Melting Point (45°C – 60°C) to the product.

This “Engineered Bioester” approach allows formulators to dial in the exact structure, sensory profile, and thermal stability their application demands thus bridging the gap between natural waxes and synthetic silicones.

Industry Applications

1. Cosmetics & Personal Care (The “Solid-to-Silk” Experience):

• Function: A structuring emollient that transitions instantly from a stable solid to a velvety liquid upon contact with skin.
• Applications: Cleansing balms, stick foundations, and vegan lip care.
• Advantage: Provides a non-greasy, breathable barrier that outperforms heavy paraffin.

2. Advanced Bio-Lubricants: (High-Stability Friction Modification)

• Function: A renewable base stock and additive for eco-friendly greases and metalworking fluids.
• Advantage: The tunable melting point ensures “stay-put” adhesion on vertical surfaces while maintaining high oxidative stability and a high flash point.

3. Specialty Agrochemicals (Smart Delivery Systems):

• Function: A biodegradable carrier and sticker-spreader for suspension concentrates.
• Advantage: Forms a breathable, rain-fast waxy film on leaves, dramatically improving the retention of active ingredients without phytotoxicity.
