BELLAMI Launches World's First Professional Grade Hair Extension Care Collection

BELLAMI

Today, BELLAMI, the global leader in hair extensions’ billion dollar industry, announces the launch of BELLAMI Professional Hair Care, the world’s first professional-grade hair extension care collection for in-salon and at-home use. In collaboration with its network of renowned hair stylists, who have close to a million hair extension installs under their belts, BELLAMI developed uniquely formulated, clinically proven extension-driven hair care solutions, designed to double the lifetime of hair extensions, protecting the investment of a growing customer-base, while strengthening the health and integrity of natural hair. “There is beauty in innovation,” says John Costanza, Group Vice President of Beauty Industry Group leading the charge for BELLAMI. “We know hair better than any brand on the market. This isn’t just a hair care line that happens to work with extensions. We spent the last three years collaborating with industry professionals, chemists and BELLAMI educators, who work with hair every single day, to perfect the formulas and deliver a comprehensive solution-oriented approach to hair and extension treatment in-salon and at-home.” BELLAMI’s professional and at-home collections are infused with first of its kind H-2™ and proprietary Vita-Seal™ complexes. Unlike other bond-building technologies, the brand’s revolutionary H-2™ Complex contains both hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties, rather than just one, which allows formulas to target different areas of damage and achieve maximum results. The hydrophilic portion balances and reconstructs the hydrogen and ionic bonds fundamental to hair structure, creating a smooth and even surface. The hydrophobic component replenishes lipids stripped from the hair during coloring or heat styling. BELLAMI’s at-home formulas complement the brand’s professional line by offering salon-quality maintenance to protect hair from UV exposure and thermal damage. Each product is designed to seal in the professional H-2™Complex while BELLAMI’s proprietary vitamin-rich Vita-Seal™Complex locks in nutrients to preserve the hair’s integrity and prevent future breakage, while improving the overall condition and appearance of hair with continued use. BELLAMI Professional Hair Care launches with ten professional products, exclusively available in-salon, and eight at-home products which are now available at Bellamihair.com and rolling out to retailers come fall. The collections incorporate clarifying and moisturizing shampoos and conditioners, a scalp detox, treatment masks and a bond fusion system that reduces breakage by up to 63% and tangling by up to 89% (TRI Princeton). All products are paraben-free, sulfate-free, cruelty-free and inclusively formulated for all hair types and textures. Refill pouches are available for shampoos and conditioners and all aluminum and plastic components are recyclable. ABOUT BELLAMI Founded in 2012 by Nikki Eslami and Julius Salerno, BELLAMI is a global leader of high end, luxurious, ethically sourced and sustainably produced full-cuticle 100% Human Remy hair enhancement solutions for consumers and salon professionals. As the largest hair extensions brand in the world, collaborating with certified hair stylists, BELLAMI offers a full range of clip-in extensions and the four pro hair extension methods - Wefts, Tape-Ins, K-Tips, I-Tips.

Le lancement du bioréacteur de The Cultivated B annonce la viabilité commerciale de l'industrie de l'agriculture cellulaire

The Cultivated B

The Cultivated B (TCB) a annoncé aujourd’hui le lancement de la production de son bioréacteur à application industrielle AUXO V™ sur le site de Burlington, dans l’Ontario, avec des délais de livraison réduits. Cette annonce représente une étape importante pour TCB, mais plus encore, répond au besoin urgent de l'industrie de l'agriculture cellulaire d'augmenter considérablement sa capacité de production mondiale afin d'atteindre une viabilité commerciale. Les délais actuels de livraison des bioréacteurs proposés par les autres fournisseurs pouvant atteindre jusqu’à deux ans, les producteurs de viandes cultivées, de médicaments et de produits de soins personnels utilisant l'agriculture cellulaire et la fermentation de précision sont confrontés à des défis pour passer de l’échelle laboratoire à la fabrication commerciale. TCB souhaite débloquer ce verrou industriel en offrant de nouveaux bioréacteurs, dont la conception innovante permet un usage simplifié pour les opérateurs, et avec des délais de livraison compétitifs de quelques semaines. « L'agriculture cellulaire n’appartient pas au futur. Elle est déjà là », a déclaré le Dr. Hamid Noori, CEO de The Cultivated B. « Les autorisations récemment accordées par USDA pour les producteurs de viande cultivée montrent que ce secteur de l'industrie progresse rapidement. Néanmoins, les producteurs ne peuvent pas faire évoluer leurs percées scientifiques et réglementaires du laboratoire à la production commerciale sans avoir la possibilité d'acheter et d'exploiter facilement des bioréacteurs. TCB révolutionne l'industrie de deux manières: premièrement, en rendant ses bioréacteurs disponibles avec des délais de livraison de seulement deux à quatre semaines; et deuxièmement, en concevant un bioréacteur qui peut être utilisé par des non-experts avec seulement quelques jours de formation. Nous changeons la donne pour l'industrie de l'agriculture cellulaire. » Les bioréacteurs AUXO V de TCB offrent une combinaison unique d'utilité et de durabilité. Contrairement aux bioréacteurs de laboratoire traditionnels, les bioréacteurs AUXO V ont été conçus et repensés par des designers industriels pour les rendre faciles à utiliser par des non-experts. Grâce à un système d'interface homme-machine et un Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) de Siemens, le personnel de production peut être formé en quelques jours à l'utilisation du système de contrôle du bioréacteur, traditionnellement réservé aux scientifiques. Les conceptions et le fonctionnement des bioréacteurs AUXO V ont été optimisés par des experts, en accordant une attention particulière aux subtilités de la précision mécanique, à la nature cruciale de l'expérience utilisateur de l'opérateur et aux défis traditionnels tels que les problèmes de contamination. Les nouveaux systèmes de bioréacteurs se concentrent également sur la durabilité, principalement en éliminant l'approche industrielle traditionnelle des bioréacteurs à usage unique. En effet, les bioréacteurs AUXO V sont fabriqués en acier inoxydable de haute qualité, ce qui les rend stérilisables et réutilisables. Leur conception optimise également l'utilisation des matériaux et vise à minimiser l'empreinte carbone de leur fabrication. Les cuves bioréacteurs multi-usages AUXO V sont économiques, flexibles et personnalisables. Ils sont disponibles dans une large gamme de tailles allant de l'échelle de laboratoire à l'échelle industrielle (jusqu'à 25 000 litres) et sont équipés de plusieurs capteurs et d’ impellers optimisés pour différents organismes, tels que les cellules animales, les bactéries ou les levures. De plus, chaque impeller est livré avec un certificat de précision, qui garantit des propriétés de mécanique des fluides optimales pour les bioréacteurs. Servant à présent de catalyseur pour l’avancement de l'agriculture cellulaire, le site de production de Burlington de TCB s'étend sur 130 000 mètres carrés et sur trois étages, et bénéficie d’un emplacement privilégié dans la région de Toronto, qui abrite l'un des plus grands clusters de l’industrie des aliments et de boissons en Amérique du Nord. L'entreprise estime que plus de 200 employés canadiens fabriqueront des bioréacteurs AUXO V pour produire des protéines alternatives à grande échelle. Pour plus d'informations sur les bioréacteurs de The Cultivated B, visitez: https://www.thecultivatedb.ca/manufacturing/ About The Cultivated B (TCB) The Cultivated B’s multinational team of scientists develops and applies breakthrough technologies in cellular agriculture, precision fermentation and advanced bioreactor technology to enable scalable commercialization of the cellular-agriculture industry. TCB serves startups, corporations and academic research institutions within the food, pharma, cosmetics and personal care industries. With its pioneering engineering and production capabilities, TCB enables other companies to produce alternative proteins, such as cultivated meat, at industrial scale. The company’s fundamental commitment to minimizing the natural resources used paves the way toward a sustainable future, locally, regionally and globally. TCB’s research and development team is based in Germany, with manufacturing and an innovation hub based in Canada’s Toronto region.

Debut of Industrial-grade Bioreactor from The Cultivated B Signals Commercial Viability for Cellular Agriculture Industry

The Cultivated B

The Cultivated B (TCB) today announced the availability of its groundbreaking AUXO V ™ industrial-grade bioreactor and the start of rapid-delivery manufacturing at the company’s Burlington, Ontario plant. These represent significant milestones not only for TCB, but more importantly they address the cellular agriculture industry’s urgent need to dramatically increase global capacity in order to reach commercially viability. Because bioreactor delivery times from other vendors can be as much as two years, producers of cultivated meats, medicines and personal care products based on cellular agriculture and precision fermentation face challenges in scaling up from the lab to commercial manufacturing. TCB intends to solve that barrier to industry growth with bioreactor delivery times of just a few weeks, as well as novel, easy-to-use designs that make equipment operator training and skills transfer quick and uncomplicated. “Cellular agriculture is not a thing of the future. It has arrived,” said Dr. Hamid Noori, CEO of The Cultivated B. “The recent USDA approvals for cultivated meat producers are evidence that the industry is quickly advancing, but producers can’t scale their scientific and regulatory breakthroughs from the lab to commercial production without the ability to readily purchase and easily operate bioreactors. TCB is disrupting the industry in two ways: first, by aiming to make our industrial-grade bioreactors available with delivery times of only two to four weeks; and second, by designing a bioreactor that can be operated by non-experts with only a few days of training. We’re changing the game for the cellular agriculture industry.” TCB’s AUXO V bioreactors offer a unique combination of utility and sustainability. Unlike traditional laboratory bioreactors, AUXO V bioreactors were engineered and reimagined by industrial designers to make them easy to use by non-experts. With a human-machine interface and programmable logic controller (PLC) system from Siemens, production personnel can be trained in just a few days to use the bioreactor control system, something traditionally reserved for scientists. The designs and operation of the AUXO V bioreactors were optimized by experts, paying close attention to subtleties of mechanical precision, the crucial nature of operator user-experience, and traditional challenges such as contamination issues. The new bioreactor systems also focus on sustainability, primarily by eliminating the industry’s traditional single-use approach to bioreactors. Instead, AUXO V bioreactors are made of high-grade stainless steel, which makes them sterilizable and reusable. The designs also optimize use of materials and are meant to minimize manufacturing carbon footprint. The AUXO V multi-use bioreactor vessels are cost-effective, flexible and customizable. They are available in a wide range of sizes from lab scale to industrial scale (up to 25,000 liters) and are equipped with multiple sensors and optimized impellers for different organisms, such as animal cells, bacteria or yeast. In addition, every impeller comes with a certificate of accuracy, which ensures optimal fluid mechanical properties of the bioreactors. Now serving as an immediate catalyst for advancement in cellular agriculture, TCB's Burlington plant spans 130,000 square feet across three floors and benefits from its location in the Toronto region, home to one of the largest food and beverage clusters in North America. The company estimates that more than 200 Canadian employees will be manufacturing AUXO V bioreactors to produce alternative proteins at scale.

Miss Universe launches M*U Beverage, the first spin-off commercial line encompassing Ready-To-Drink Functional beverages and Natural Alkaline Mineral Water sourced exclusively from Iceland.

JKN Global Media Public Company Limited

BANGKOK, THAILAND - Media OutReach - 18 July 2023 - The Miss Universe Organization (MUO) is venturing into uncharted territory with the launch of M*U Beverage, a new business venture under the brand name "M*U". Guided by the vision to bring smarter hydration to people worldwide through exceptional products that both refresh and nourish them, the product lineup contains two types of drinks: M*U NØR Natural Alkaline Mineral Water and M*U functional beverages, which will come in 5 flavors. Anne Jakapong Jakrajutatip, Chief Executive Officer of JKN Global Group Public Company Limited, and the owner of The Miss Universe Organization, said: "The Miss Universe brand is universal – forever evolving beyond the limits of our imagination. M*U Beverage is the first Miss Universe branded product line that espouses our original values: empowering women to realize their ambition and build self-confidence as a catalyst for future success." "In today's fast-paced world, access to quality beverages is essential for a better and healthier life. M*U Beverage understands that drinks play a vital role in daily sustenance, and we aim to offer a vast variety of daily quenchers to uplift daily life. With this mission in mind, we have created a line of premium hydrations. We worked alongside nutritionists and natural ingredients experts to research, test, and produce products that energize, refresh, and rejuvenate minds and bodies," added Anne. M*U functional drinks are made from natural ingredients, containing zero caffeine, no sugar, no preservatives and less than 45 kcal/bottle. They are currently available in 5 variations: Zen: Green tea & yuzu flavor, made with calming magnesium, L-Theanine, and GABA to ease anxiety and stress. Immune: Lemon flavor, made with Vitamin C and astragalus to boost the immune system. Focus: Berry flavor, made with branch chain amino acids to help support cognitive function and focus. Happy: Raspberry & mint flavor, made with Vitamin B complex and calming magnesium for mood and productivity. Fiber +: Pineapple & coconut flavor, fortified with fiber to keep you fuller throughout the day. M*U Beverage is also excited to launch M*U NØR Natural Alkaline Mineral Water, the first alkaline water offered in a bespoke glass bottle and bottled in Thailand. Sourced from the pristine springs of Reykjavik, Iceland, where the mineral water is some of the cleanest and purest in the world, M*U NØR Natural Alkaline Mineral Water is perpetually replenished with glacier melt from the Olfus spring that has been filtered through layers of lava rock. With a pH of 8.4, M*U NØR is the epitome of freshness, offering remarkable health benefits through the presence of essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, sodium, and potassium. M*U Beverage recognizes the increasing demand for alkaline waters and functional drinks in international markets. Due to consumers' increasing health awareness post-pandemic, health-conscious consumers are seeking benefits such as boosts in hydration, energy, and immunity in functional beverages. Market analysis reveals the tremendous growth potential and emerging trends in these sectors: The global functional drinks market was worth US$204.8 billion in 2022 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1% from 2023 to 2030. The global premium bottled water market is expected to reach US$33.40 billion by 2030, with a CAGR of 7.0% from 2023 to 2030. Growing awareness of leading a healthy lifestyle has led to a shift in consumer preferences towards premium bottled water options, driven by concerns over high sugar content and sweeteners in carbonated drinks. The presence of essential minerals further drives the demand for premium bottled water. By strategically entering the Ready to Drink sector, M*U Beverages aims to capture early adopters in a staggering market worth well over US$749 billion, projected to grow at a remarkable CAGR of 6.38% through 2030. This exponential growth will result in a market worth well over US$1.1 trillion, making it a prime opportunity for Miss Universe to establish its presence and drive unparalleled success. Embarking on a journey that seamlessly blends functionality and elegance, M*U Beverages will make its grand entrance in Thailand, with plans to capture the global market by the end of the year. With a legacy spanning 72 years, the Miss Universe Organization has captivated audiences worldwide, embodying values of empowerment and self-confidence for women to realize their ambitions and catalyze future success. By leveraging its prestigious long-standing heritage, M*U beverages will establish strategic partners in esteemed markets such as Australia, the Philippines, the United Kingdom, and China, to name a few. The launch of M*U Beverages in Bangkok was attended by famous industry insiders, celebrities, and social media influencers, including Miss Universe 2022 R'Bonney Gabriel, Miss Universe 2005 Natalie Glebova, and Miss Universe Thailand 2022 Anna S., among others.
