Latin America’s cosmetics and personal care products company, Natura Cosméticos S.A., has announced the purchase of Solazyme, Inc., a renewable oils and ingredients company, following year-long testing and product validation phases. Solazyme’s high-performance AlgaPūrTM Microalgae Oil will be incorporated into Natura’s multiple product lines.
 
Solazyme’s microalgae oils are produced in a matter of days using a fermentation process designed to produce oils of the highest purity, performance and sustainability. Some of the benefits of using AlgaPūr oils for skin care are higher hydration levels, a silky but not greasy skin feel, mildness on the skin, neutral color and odor, and improved shelf life.
 
Walfredo Linhares, general manager of Solazyme Bunge Renewable Oils in Brazil, said, “We believe high performance and sustainability belong together. Natura is a leader in innovation and globally recognized for their sustainability efforts. We are very happy to work together to deliver better products for consumers and for our planet.”
 
Natura and Solazyme have been working together for two years on several projects on joint efforts to develop new formulations with Solazyme’s microalgae oils. “We are always looking for ingredients from renewable sources and technologies inspired in the nature, targeting low environmental impact processes and high performance solutions”, said Daniel Gonzaga, director of advanced research of Natura.”
