Effective in reducing dandruff and itching
Amphoteric surfactant PIUSERIA® AMC
PIUSERIA AMC is an amino acid type amphoteric surfactant that prevents itching and dandruff by reducing the amount of surfactant remaining on the skin. When used in combination with the main ingredient in amino acid-based shampoos, such as Disodium Cocoyl Glutamate, it reduces the amount of surfactant remaining on the skin during shampooing, which not only prevents itching and dandruff, but also improves the thickening, foaming, and cleansing power of amino acid-based shampoos. It also has a bacteriostatic effect against dandruff-causing bacteria. This mechanism is a world first*.

RSPO Certification for a Better Society
RSPO Certified products
Palm oil, obtained from the pulp of the oil palm, is the most widely produced and used vegetable oil in the world. In countries where large-scale oil palm plantations have been developed, serious problems have been pointed out, including environmental destruction and human rights abuses due to poor labor conditions on the plantations. RSPO is an international certification system established to solve these problems and to promote sustainable palm oil production and use with consideration for biodiversity and forest conservation.
We have obtained RSPO Certification at our four Japanese factories (Nagoya, Kashima, Kyoto, and Kinuura). In April 2023, we began procuring and using RSPO Certified palm oil-derived raw materials for some of our surfactants for cosmetics, and began labeling them with the RSPO Certification.
