Azelis, a leading innovation service provider in the specialty chemicals and food ingredients industry, is pleased to announce a new distribution agreement with Gattefossé, a leading developer and manufacturer of pharmaceutical excipients and cosmetic ingredients of natural origin for beauty and health industries worldwide. Effective immediately, Azelis distributes Gattefossé’s complete portfolio of lipid-based excipients for the Pharmaceuticals & Healthcare segment in Malaysia.
