Cosmetics & Personal Care

Boston-based Carbonwave  is the world’s leading developer of ultra-regenerative, plant-based, advanced biomaterials from seaweed. The company has operations in Mexico, where it collects Sargassum from the beaches of the Cancun area of the Yucatan peninsula, and a manufacturing facility in Puerto Rico. The company uses a proprietary approach to turn Sargassum – long considered waste – into materials that can restore soils and oceans, eliminate micro-plastic waste, and achieve carbon neutrality. The company produces a range of products from agricultural extracts to bio-leathers and personal care ingredients.

Lafaure is a family business that has been in existence for four generations. The company is located in the south-west of France and currently employs about forty employees. It has had its own clay quarry for over 30 years. Its extraction site and production site are close by. We pre-dry the clay in the sun and we guarantee not to use any physical or chemical treatment that could distort the quality of our clay. We are constantly looking for new properties on our clay. That is why we carry out tests on volunteers and in vitro.
