ADParticles is a technology-based company established in 2011, spin-off of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC, the main public institution dedicated to research in Spain and the third largest in Europe). 

ADParticles Technology consists of a revolutionary method, based on the dry dispersion of nanoparticles, designed to obtain products (composites with hierarchical structures) with applications in several areas (cosmetic, magnets, polymer & cement additives, catalysis, etc). ADParticles Technology maximizes the effectiveness of the nanoparticles by means of its disaggregation, promoting and enhancing surface interactions and effects.

ADParticles & Sun Care: ADPCosmetics
ADParticles has developed EnhanceU®, a range of non-nanometric mineral UV filters. EnhanceU innovative cosmetic ingredients are aimed at premium, pharma and natural channels.

 ADVANTAGES:
• NANO-FREE: EnhanceU particles’ size is above 100 nm.  NO “nano” labelling required, after the ingredient name on the packaging. 
• SAFETY: when compared to potential effects of nanoparticles (nanometric UV filters) on health and environment, related to toxicity, inhalation risks and stability. 
• QUALITY: EnhanceU filters exhibit a very good balanced protection in the UVB and UVA region and are advised to achieve SPF30 and SPF50 formulations.
• PHOTOSTABILITY: It´s formula make it very stable avoiding the degradation of the formula. 
• ECOCERT LABELLING: The use of EnhanceU allows to obtain ECOCERT formulas, a very valuable characteristic and fashionable tendency in the market.
• COLOR: EnhanceU-T Light, Medium and Warm UV filters combine 2 functionalities, protection and color, in an only ingredient. 

ADPCosmetics launches EffectiveU-T: an extra non-nanometric mineral UV filter, designed to provide an important protection in UVA region.
This new ingredient provides an excellent UVA/UVB balance and may be used in combination or with boosters for higher SPF formulas.
