CARILÈNE LABORATORIES

Research and Development of Dermatological Medical Devices

History

For over 40 years, Carilène Laboratories have explored numerous application areas for peroxided oils, pioneering the industrialization of the controlled oxidation process for vegetable oils. Based on demonstrated physicochemical properties, Oxidized Glycerol Triesters (OGT), named EPALINE®, open up a wide therapeutic universe for local application.

Peroxided vegetable oils induce the formation of a protective lipid film on the skin or mucous membranes, promoting the healing and regeneration of inflamed or damaged tissues. The tolerance and performance of each new product developed by Carilène Laboratories are demonstrated through biological evaluation tests and clinical investigations in accordance with European regulatory requirements.

Product patents or application patents protect all references in the range of products developed and marketed by Carilène Laboratories.

COSMETIC INDUSTRY

EPALINE® — Tolerance Factor

The tolerance of cosmetic preparations is a key concern for dermo-cosmetic manufacturers.

La formulation de nombreux produits cosmétiques incluant un certain pourcentage de OGT permet d’obtenir et de commercialiser des produits bien tolérés.
L’EPALINE® est la gamme d’huiles peroxydées développée par les Laboratoires Carilène pour l’industrie cosmétique.

For over 40 years, Carilène Laboratories have supplied a large quantity of OGT to the international cosmetic industry. The tolerance of these new cosmetic formulations is thus ensured without any alteration of product value.

EPALINE® 100 and EPALINE® DM comply with the requirements of the COSMOS standard (Cosmetics Organic & Natural Standard) and are approved by ECOCERT GREENLIFE.
