Creating mineral sunscreens that are both sensorially elegant and aesthetically pleasing remains one of the industry's greatest formulation challenges. This is especially true for inclusive sunscreens that minimize whitening and work well across a broad range of skin tones, including darker complexions. Solabia's G-Block DZ 72 CCC directly addresses this issue by enabling formulators to develop mineral sunscreens with better transparency and a more pleasant skin feel, qualities that are essential for encouraging widespread daily use and consistent reapplication, which are critical for effective sun protection.

Beyond aesthetics, G-Block DZ 72 CCC is a true formulation enabler. With a high active loading of 72% non-nano zinc oxide, it significantly reduces the amount of dispersion needed to meet SPF targets. This efficiency opens up valuable formulation space for other key ingredients, such as sensory modifiers, skin care actives, color pigments, and fragrance. As a result, formulators can create more sophisticated, multifunctional sunscreens that go beyond basic UV protection.

By empowering brands to formulate sunscreens that people actually want to wear, G Block™ DZ 72 CCC supports a future of broader sun protection adoption and healthier skin for all.
