Sodium Polyglutamate (γ-PGA)

The Advanced Film-Forming Hydrator for Silky Texture and NMF Activation

Sodium Polyglutamate, also known as Gamma-Polyglutamic Acid (γ-PGA), is a high-performance cosmetic grade biopolymer produced through microbial fermentation. Renowned for its superior water-locking capabilities—often surpassing traditional Hyaluronic Acid—it creates a breathable, silky film on the skin that significantly boosts Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF) while providing an ultra-smooth, non-sticky sensory experience.

The Ultimate 100% Farnesol-Free Sodium Polyglutamate (γ-PGA): Custom-Engineered for Extremely Sensitive Skin & Zero Sensitization

Clinically proven to reduce skin sensitivity markers by 40% within 48 hours, hold up to 5,000 times its weight in water, and maintain skin hydration levels 20% longer than standard Hyaluronic Acid.

In the highly competitive landscape of next-generation hydration and dermatological repair, delivering profound, long-lasting moisture without triggering surface irritation or leaving a sticky residue is the ultimate formulation challenge. Extracted via precision bio-fermentation, our premium Cosmetic Grade Sodium Polyglutamate (γ-PGA) completely eliminates residual impurities. Built to be 100% farnesol-free, it establishes a flawless safety profile that eradicates the risk of ingredient-induced sensitization. By forming an invisible, micro-porous breathable film on the stratum corneum and actively inhibiting hyaluronidase (the enzyme that breaks down natural HA), it delivers unparalleled “Silky Hydration” that fundamentally improves the skin’s biological ability to retain water.

Unlocking Unmatched Business Value

Sodium Polyglutamate manufacturer & supplier

For Global OEM/ODM Innovators: Achieve ultimate formulation elegance and extreme compatibility. Our highly purified γ-PGA dissolves seamlessly into the water phase at any temperature below 80°C, yielding a crystal-clear, water-white, and entirely odorless profile. It provides a luxurious, “velvety” finish without the tackiness traditionally associated with high-molecular-weight humectants. It guarantees zero interference with the precise color, fragrance, or aesthetic of your final product. Exceptionally stable in varied electrolyte environments, it completely eliminates manufacturing friction for your R&D teams.

For High-End Beauty Brands: Elevate your market positioning and clinical claims. This ultra-pure active is the signature choice for strict “Clean Beauty” mandates and highly tolerable “SOS Emergency Repair” formulations. Empower your brand to market “Next-Gen Hydration” and “Silky Finish” technology. Capture the fierce loyalty of consumers demanding highly potent, non-sensitizing moisture therapies that move beyond surface relief to actively stimulate endogenous Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF) for a resilient, brightened, and plump complexion.

Ready-to-Use Solutions: The Golden Synergies

Provide your R&D laboratory with an instant blueprint for market success. Our Sodium Polyglutamate acts as a supreme biological hydration amplifier, protecting and enhancing the restorative efficacy of companion actives:

  • Sodium Polyglutamate + Allantoin: The ultimate deep-tissue regeneration matrix. Combines the unparalleled 5,000x water-binding capacity of γ-PGA with the water-soluble wound-healing properties of Allantoin to instantly plump deep dehydration lines and safely soothe micro-traumatized or post-procedure skin.

  • Sodium Polyglutamate + Panthenol: A comprehensive “SOS Barrier Rescue” and silky repair system. Panthenol floods the stratum corneum with targeted barrier fortification, while our γ-PGA forms a micro-porous, breathable film over the surface. This creates a perfectly balanced, non-reactive environment that rapidly halts inflammatory triggers without any sticky, heavy residue.

  • Sodium Polyglutamate + Ceramide NP: The absolute structural longevity and hydration defense complex. While γ-PGA stimulates internal NMF production (like PCA and Lactic Acid) and locks moisture from within, Ceramide NP safely and physically rebuilds the skin’s depleted lipid cement on the surface, ensuring a resilient, youthful, and perfectly sealed barrier.
