Application
Description Lignovations has developed LignoGuard, a multifunctional ingredient made from upcycled biomass, utilizing Lignova raw material sourced from forestry and wood industry residues like sawdust, woodchips, and low-quality hardwood. The ingredient is manufactured without the use of undesired chemicals, ensuring a sustainable and eco-friendly production process. It has received COSMOS eco-certification, highlighting its commitment to environmental responsibility and natural sourcing.
Pathway Description: The process used in this project involves sourcing locally generated wood residues like sawdust and woodchips, extracting lignin to create the Lignova raw material, and upcycling it through chemical treatments to produce LignoGuard, a multifunctional ingredient for cosmetic applications.
