Wax Capsules

Carnauba wax lipid capsules are composed of biodegradable lipids that show low toxicity.

Compared to other waxes, carnauba wax is significantly less viscous (and therefore easier to handle during the processing of the capsule), more elastic, more resistant to deformation and has very favorable properties of physical and chemical stability, good tolerability and biodegradability making it an excellent release system for oil-soluble active ingredients.

The small size ensures close contact with the stratum corneum and can increase the amount of active administered to the skin.
