Against a background of ambitious climate goals, growing world popularion and dwindling fossil resources, environmentally sound production processes increasingly play a crucial role in marketing. BELSIL® eco is our response to tomorrow’s challenges.
Sustainability Unique Worldwide:
BELSIL® eco is produced using 100% bio-methanol instead of methanol. WACKER is thereby the world’s first chemical group to offer resource-efficient silicones for the cosmetics industry. Silicones with the desired special effects for make-up, haircare and skincare. Silicones that can be easily integrated into your products and production processes without extra overheads.

In developing BELSIL® eco, our intention was to use raw materials efficiently and find an alternative to methanol. BELSIL® eco consists of bio-methanol obtained entirely from renewable raw materials, such as straw, grasses and sugar beet. Certified according to strict criteria, the BELSIL® eco manufacturing process and use of bio raw materials are continuously controlled by TÜV NORD.
