Cosphatec Launches Two COSMOS and NATRUE Compliant Natural Panthenol Variants

German ingredient supplier Cosphatec has launched two 100% natural panthenol variants named Cosphaderm® Panthenol natural 98 and natural 75. Both carry COSMOS and NATRUE certification, and the raw material is produced through corn biofermentation.

Two Concentrations for Different Formulation Needs

Natural 98 is a high-purity viscous form with a higher active content, suited for custom formulations requiring precise dosing. Natural 75 is a transparent slightly viscous liquid supplied as a 75% pre-diluted solution, designed for direct integration into aqueous systems to streamline development while retaining panthenol's established performance profile.

A Classic Ingredient Meets Natural Standards

Panthenol has been used in skin and hair care for decades, known for its moisturizing, soothing and regenerating properties. The new fully natural versions bring this ingredient into the COSMOS and NATRUE certification framework. Cosphatec says its sustainable corn biofermentation process reconciles efficacy with natural cosmetics requirements.

Implications for B2B Procurement and Brand Buyers

Procurement teams should note two key factors when sourcing panthenol. First, certification readiness: both variants hold COSMOS and NATRUE approvals, reducing the need for additional compliance checks for brands targeting the EU natural cosmetics market. Second, dosing format: the 98% high-purity form suits small-batch precise addition scenarios, while the 75% pre-diluted form is better suited for direct compounding in aqueous systems, shortening sample development cycles. Brands should confirm the required concentration grade during product positioning to minimize supply chain switching costs.
