Royal DSM lobbies US Congress to revise sunscreen PPE rules
Royal DSM has secured the support of 11 members of the US Congress to look into rules related to outdoor workers and the use of sunscreen. The company wants the
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to review standards exempting employer coverage of sunscreen for outdoor workers, arguing it is critical personal protective equipment (PPE) and not only for “weather- related” protection.
“We believe revisiting the
treatment of sunscreen as critical PPE covered by an employer will increase usage rates of sunscreen significantly, leading to the reduction of two risk factors for skin cancer – sun exposure and sunburns,” Royal DSM said in a statement. Skin cancer is now the most
common form of cancer, with over five million people diagnosed in the US each year. Melanoma is one of the
deadliest forms of skin cancer, with about 99,780 invasive melanomas expected to be diagnosed in the US this year, according to the American Cancer Society. Stephen Wood, senior director
of DSM Personal Care North America, added: “As one of the world’s leading UV filter ingredient manufacturers it saddens us at DSM to see so many lives devastated by such a highly preventable disease.
“If revised, this will have a
tremendous positive impact on public health by protecting our most vulnerable populations.”
Rahn forms partnership for vectorisation technology
Swiss cosmetic actives maker Rahn has entered into a partnership with Laboratoires Eriger, a French developer of vectorisation technology. The agreement will give
Rahn exclusive distribution responsibility for the United States, United Kingdom, Ireland and Germany. Laboratoires Eriger’s
PhytoVec technology leverages PERSONAL CARE October 2022
the capabilities of chlorophyll to vectorise a large spectrum of active molecules at high concentration by encapsulation in water.
This guarantees stability and
long-term protection of sensitive active molecules such as vitamins and polyphenols. “The PhytoVec format provides
protection against UV and oxidation that is far superior to
that of liposomes,” said Rahn. “The PhytoVec vectorisation
has proven its performance on many active ingredients, including the powerful yet challenging Vitamin A,” it added. “With this technology,
Laboratoires Eriger is proud to offer a range of standard products as well as tailor-made solutions with cosmetic brands and active ingredient manufacturers.”
