PRESS RELEASE
Paris, October 27, 2025: The dermo-pharmaceutical market, valued at over $21 billion, is experiencing significant growth 1 with a CAGR of over 11%, driven by increasing consumer and patients demand for advanced topical solutions. Formulators constantly face challenges: developing stable formulations, ensuring compatibility with different technologies, managing complex APIs, and facilitating patient compliance. It is within this landscape that Seppic introduces SEPINEOTM PRD 100.
This innovative polymer offers multifunctional properties, including thickening and texturizing, specifically designed for a wide variety of topical drug dosage forms, under challenging formulation conditions. It is specifically engineered to answer the pharmaceutical industry’s critical needs and meet formulators’ challenges.
SEPINEO™ PRD 100 delivers a transparent, rich, and velvety texture with a versatile viscosity profile, from sprayable to thick. This results in a highly desirable sensorial profile that facilitates patient compliance. For formulators, its pre-neutralized nature and excellent co-stabilizing properties streamline development by reducing processing steps and formulation attempts. This rheological profile, coupled with its unique texture, enables suitability for a wide range of innovative topical drug dosage forms like refined foams and sprayable solutions.
To address the challenges of developing stable topical drug dosage forms with challenging ingredients, SEPINEO™ PRD 100 provides a robust, stress-resistant solution that maintains stability even with stressful conditions, such as electrolyte and solvent/oil-rich environments, or in the presence of stressor APIs.
