Summer may be a time for beach days and sunshine, but for hair, it is often a season of struggle. Caldic Benelux Product Manager Tom De Bondt says, “When temperature rises, so do the demands on hair!” The warmer months bring forth a set of challenges for hair such as dryness, dullness, discoloration, and that dreaded straw-like texture.
“We see formulators looking for a single solution. Something that can combat multiple problems at once while remaining cost-effective and pleasant to use.”
Tom and our application development team decided to confront this challenge head-on by drawing on years of technical expertise and leveraging the state-of-the-art application lab. The result was a multi-functional hair repair serum that exceeded all expectations.
The proprietary blend of volatile ingredients plays a crucial role, enhancing softness and imparting vibrant color depth. And the sensory appeal wasn’t overlooked either. “It was important for us to create something stable and effective that delivers visible results. Spreadability and conditioning were top priorities, but we didn’t stop there. We ensured the formulation was not only skin-compatible but also free from any lingering odors; something our clients are increasingly after.”

At the heart of this innovation is Calsil, Caldic’s range of silicone solutions. “Our silicones bring real versatility to the table,” Tom shares. “They’re the foundation of our all-in-one approach - enhancing the formula’s texture, performance, and aesthetic payoff.” The secret, he says, lies in the synergy between advanced ingredient sourcing and deep application knowledge. Tom is confident that Calsil's customizable solutions can support customer concerns beyond hair care.
