The demand for effective, reliable, and versatile UV filters has never been higher in the ever-evolving sunscreen industry. Enter Avobenzone (INCI/ AAN: Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane) — a powerhouse ingredient that stands out as the gold standard in broad-spectrum UVA protection. If you’re in the business of creating high-quality sun protection products, this ingredient should be at the forefront of your formulations.
Why Avobenzone?
UV radiation is divided into UVA and UVB rays, both of which can wreak havoc on the skin. According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, UVB rays penetrate and damages the outer layer of your skin, causing suntan and sunburn. On the other hand, UVA rays are more penetrating and can affect cells deeper in your skin, causing indirect damage to DNA, premature skin ageing, pigmentation, and contributes to the development of skin cancer – This is where Avobenzone shines.
Exceptional UVA Absorption
According to the American Cancer Society, about 95% of the UV rays from the sun that reach the earth are UVA rays. With its ability to absorb UVA rays in the 320–400 nm wavelength range, Avobenzone is a cornerstone for broad-spectrum UVA protection in sunscreen formulas.
Proven Effectiveness
Approved by regulatory authorities worldwide, including the FDA (21 CFR 352.10), EU (Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009), and in Australia by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), this UV filter is trusted for its safety and efficacy, as demonstrated by its widespread use in global markets.
Enhanced Product Appeal
Consumers increasingly seek sunscreens with comprehensive UVA protection to shield their skin from the signs of ageing and harmful sun exposure. Adding Avobenzone to your formulations answers this demand.
Key Features and Benefits of Avobenzone
Oil-Soluble, Easy to Formulate
As an oil-soluble compound, Avobenzone integrates seamlessly into various sunscreen formulations, making it suitable for water-resistant sunscreens, whether lightweight lotion, rich cream, or spray.
Broad-Spectrum Versatility
While Avobenzone primarily absorbs UVA rays, combining it with stabilisers and other UV filters (e.g., Octocrylene or Homosalate) allows for comprehensive UV protection. This synergy ensures a well-rounded, broad-spectrum sun protection product that meets consumer expectations.
Safe and Effective
With regulatory approvals in place for Australia, USA, EU, Japan, and China, Avobenzone remains one of the most relied-upon ingredients in the global sunscreen market. When formulated correctly, it offers consistent and effective protection against harmful UVA radiation.
Consumer Trust
Dermatologists and skincare professionals recommend products containing Avobenzone for its superior UVA defence, as evidenced by studies published in dermatological journals and expert endorsements from organisations like the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD). This consumer trust translates to higher market demand and repeat purchases.
