Gathering in Porto
At the beginning of the month, we joined the EMEA Sales Meeting in Porto. It was packed with collaborative sessions that enabled us to share ideas, plan ahead, and celebrate success. With some fun team activities thrown in - from golf lessons to escape rooms, it got just a little competitive!

Ascot Lab Day Event
We threw open the doors to our new lab to some of our amazing customers for the very first Alchemy x Elementis Innovation Lab Day
The morning was packed with trends, new product launch previews, and a sensory and rheology masterclass. Then it was into the lab for a hands-on session, designed to give formulators the chance to get stuck in, test our ingredients, and explore what they can do. A great mix of insights, experimentation and plenty of formulation chat.

Spraymulse® Reformulated
We were delighted to share the reformulated Spraymulse® with our customers and distributors this month.
Designed to create stable, low-viscosity, sprayable emulsions with high oil loads, it's suitable for a variety of applications from sun care to spritzes.

Home Sweet Home
One small sign, one big milestone! The Elementis signage went up in our new office, and the furniture arrived! Making our new office feel much more like home!
The new signage represents more than a change to the building. It reflects the successful coming together of our teams and the start of an exciting new chapter as one organisation. We're proud to call Ascot home and look forward to what comes next!

Bringing Our Expertise To Germany
Shivani Mistry and Moritz Messner travelled to Germany to visit customers and lead technical workshops with our distributor RAHN.
Centred around our oil gelling ingredient portfolio, the sessions gave attendees the chance to move beyond theory and into practice. The interactive nature of the sessions encouraged collaboration, idea sharing, and valuable technical discussions. It was a fantastic opportunity to connect directly with customers and showcase the ability of our ingredients portfolio.

Spraymulse® Revealed at HPCI Poland
Our Sales Manager, Maria Man shared the relaunch of Spraymulse® at HPCI Poland, showcasing to the audience how they can easily create stable, sprayable emulsions with some live demonstrations.
It was great to receive such a positive reaction from the customers attending!

Discussing the Future at Victoria House
This month, Alia Garcia joined industry leaders and experts at Victoria House in London for an engaging roundtable discussion centred on exploring the possibility of creating fully bio-based beauty products. The discussion encouraged participants to consider the opportunities, challenges, and collaborations.
The event provided an inspiring opportunity to contribute to conversations that may help shape the future of sustainable beauty innovation.

Stepping Up for Cancer Research UK
This month, colleagues in Ascot have been challenging themselves in support of Cancer Research UK through a series of fundraising activities designed to get everyone moving.
From clocking up steps to completing 100 press-ups a day, team members have embraced the challenge with determination. While there have certainly been a few tired muscles, the challenges have been a great way to bring colleagues together while raising awareness and support for an important cause. Go Team!
