Biodegradability Testing Methods
IB-BI development has been strengthened through our ongoing collaboration with our parent company Croda and INCOTEC. This wide-ranging and comprehensive alliance has created and established a network of biodegradability testing laboratories across the Croda community which regularly communicate and work together to share the latest testing methodologies and biodegradability data. As a result, IB-BI has a strong scientific basis and is robust, having its methodologies validated with several raw materials with different compositions.
The development of IB-BI aligns Iberchem further with Croda’s commitment to being Land Positive by 2030. By developing a deeper understanding of leading initiatives related to biodegradability and environmental ecosystems, Iberchem can become a driving force for positive change through biodegradable fragrance formulation to proactively contribute to Croda’s sustainability programme.
Sustainable Fragrance Innovations
IB-BI perfectly complements Iberchem’s sustainable fragrance technologies, Vernova®Caps and Vernova®Pure. These biodegradable solutions correspond to OECD Readily Biodegradable standards and are suitable for a variety of applications and malodours. Together, IB-BI and biodegradable fragrance technologies enhance Iberchem’s ingredient portfolio and our ability to deliver fragrances in harmony with the planet and its people.
By understanding the rising need for biodegradable fragrances, Iberchem has actively listened and delivered. Our IB-BI laboratory will grow in line with the continuously developing sustainability domain, in order to ensure high-performance planet-friendly fragrance solutions.
