Primient is a new personal care ingredient supplier that debuted its portfolio of personal care additives at this year’s NYSCC Suppliers’ Day. The privately held company is majority-owned and controlled by KPS Capital Partners LP after purchasing a controlling stake in Tate & Lyle’s primary products business in North America and Latin America. Tate & Lyle still retain a minority stake.
