Low aquatic toxicity: RHEANCE® Glycolipids are environmentally compatible, show low toxicity to aquatic organisms and have low potential for bioaccumulation.

Traceable: RHEANCE® Glycolipids are produced exclusively from agricultural resources, traceable to plantation site to ensure constant surveillance and to allow a closer dialogue with farmers. Unlike feedstocks from high complex supply chains (i.e. tropical oils).
