Syensqo and Bota Bio have entered into a strategic five-year partnership to develop a high-performance innovative bio-based protein technology in hair and scalp care, with a focus on key concerns such as hair repair from within, or hair growth.

Founded in 2019, Bota Bio has rapidly evolved into a global biotech innovation powerhouse across industries such as nutrition, food, personal care, and animal health, with its own pilot plant and manufacturing facility.

Spearheaded by Syensqo’s Renewable Materials and Biotechnology Platform and our Beauty Business Unit, the collaboration will focus on developing high-performance biomimetic ingredients, drawing on Syensqo’s 40 years of expertise in hair care and growing emphasis on scalp care.

Bota is actively engaged in developing advanced strains and optimizing manufacturing processes to enhance the scalability of innovative hair care ingredients production. We are excited about this opportunity to define products leveraging Syensqo’s innovation heritage and expert knowledge,” commented Dr. Cheryl Cui, CEO at Bota Bio in a media statement.
