Encapsulation technologies

Timed release matters in fragranced products – from a detergent that springs into action during the wash cycle, to a fabric softener that surrounds you with freshness at the touch of your laundry, to a deodorant that slowly releases scent throughout the day. This calls for advanced delivery systems that protect and carry perfume until it is needed: a technique known as encapsulation.

Rooted in responsible innovation and served by a strong collection of hedonics, our encapsulation technologies enhance everyday moments.

      Customers can choose from a range of solutions, depending on the application and the release mode required:

      Water-activated

      Some capsules are activated by water: these include Bloomtech™, our first biodegradable technology, suitable for powder detergent, scent booster and deodorant products.

      Friction-activated

      Some capsules are activated by friction: these include MechaCaps™, ScentiCaps™ and PlanetCaps™, which are suitable for a variety of fabric care and personal care products.

      Dual-release

      Some capsules are dual-release systems, responding to both water contact and friction: these include StereoCaps™, our latest biodegradable technology in powder format, particularly suitable for deodorant.
