Azafran Innovación recently launched its Azafran BioSheer Zinc Dispersion, a blend featuring uncoated zinc oxide (ZnO) and designed for maximum transparency and robust broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection. According to the company, the dispersion meets and exceeds international standards for sun protection, offering consistent coverage across the UV spectrum.
Key Features and Composition
Azafran BioSheer Zinc Dispersion (INCI: Zinc Oxide (and) Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (and) Polyhydroxystearic Acid) is reportedly engineered to eliminate the whitening effect commonly associated with mineral sunscreens. It is said to provide a balanced ratio of UVA and UVB defense, making it suitable for everyday use.
Additional benefits include:
it is designed for easy integration into various formulations and
it complies with strict global UVA protection standards.
Environmental and Safety Benefits
Additionally, the company highlights how Azafran BioSheer Zinc Dispersion aligns with demands for eco-consciousness and safety.
- Clinically proven safety: Studies led by Australian universities have confirmed that zinc oxide nanoparticles do not cause cellular toxicity, even with repeated application.
- Reef and marine safe: Zinc is a necessary micronutrient in marine ecosystems, supporting surface productivity and contributing to the global carbon cycle.
- Biodegradable: As a naturally occurring mineral, ZnO is biodegradable and does not persist in the environment as a pollutant.
Taken together, the Azafran BioSheer Zinc Dispersion is poised to revolutionize sun care, offering a balanced blend of performance, safety and sustainability, the company reports.
