Clariant unveiled its new Vita 100% bio-based surfactants and polyethylene glycols (PEGs) to help directly address climate change by helping remove fossil carbon from the value chain.
The introduction of 100% bio-based surfactants and PEGs significantly expands Clariant’s Vita-designated ingredients. Vita products are based on renewable feedstocks and have at least 98% Renewable Carbon Index (RCI).
Clariant uses 100% bioethanol derived from sugar cane or corn to create ethylene oxide for its innovative new surfactants and PEGs. The bio-based material is fully segregated along the value chain from the field to the final consumer product.
