Discover the future of formulation with Surfachem at SCS Formulate 2026
Innovation in personal care rarely comes from an ingredient alone. It comes from understanding emerging consumer expectations, identifying the right technologies and translating them into formulations that deliver meaningful performance.
At SCS Formulate 2026, Surfachem will bring together ingredient innovation, market insight and practical formulation expertise to help visitors explore what could be next for your product development.
Taking place on 10th - 11th November 2026 at Coventry Building Society Arena, SCS Formulate brings together the UK personal care and cosmetics community to discover new technologies, exchange technical knowledge and explore future formulation trends.
Visit Surfachem on Stand 700, where we will be joined by our partners Evonik and Stepan.
Explore ingredient innovation with our team
Our commercial and technical teams will be available throughout the event to discuss formulation challenges, market opportunities and ingredient technologies across personal care and HI&I applications.
Whether you are developing a new formulation, improving performance or sensory profile, responding to changing consumer expectations or tackling an established formulation challenge, our team can help you explore relevant options.
Our approach goes beyond showcasing ingredients. We aim to understand what you are trying to achieve and connect you with appropriate technologies, formulation knowledge and supplier expertise.
Visitors to Stand 700 can meet specialists from Surfachem alongside experts from Evonik and Stepan, bringing together complementary knowledge from across our ingredient portfolio.
