Organogel formulation technology for the 21st Century
JOHNSON & WILKINS LTD
For a summary of our technology please see exec summary.
Physical organogels are water free gels that form when compounds are combined using patent protected technology.  Our technology allows you to provide to your customer a formulation that is free of surfactants and preservatives.

Because our products are free of water so we have no microbial issues and no product breakdown due to water-induced decomposition.  This truly is a revolution in formulation.  Surfactants are not needed to maintain the stability of the gel.  The compounds that we use are all regulatory approved and are well accepted, having a great cosmetic feel.  We have formulated a wide range of compounds into our organogels and have shown that these provide the ideal formulation for active pharmaceutical ingreidents (API's) for pharmaceutical applications both oral and topical including functional food applications, medical devices, nutraceuticals and cosmetic applications.  Our organogel formulations have been registered with CTFA and have INCI names.

The intial discovery of how to make these unique organogels was made by Dr Brian Wilkins.  He has had considerable experience in the field of Pharmacy.  The technology is simple and easy to perform and the gels that form are stable.  Other organogels based on phosphotidylcholine require water to induce gelling and therefore, like emulsions, suffer from a similar problem of possible microbial and water-induced instability.

The addition of actives to our gels can be achieved during gelation which disperses the active evenly thoughout the gel.  Or we can provide you with the base formulation and you can mix your product into an existing gel.  We have included nucleic acids, proteins, lipids and phytochemicals into  organogels.

With the discovery of organogels some years ago Dr Brian Wilkins worked on perfecting a sunscreen formulation that is ideal for cosmetic uses.  It is smooth to apply, doesn't leave behind any messy residue, and stays on the skin to provide the desired level of protection from harmful UV light.

As recently as 2007-2008 additional potential organogel applications have been identified.  This could be the holy grail in formulation.  By eliminating the need for emulsion technology and water we have come up with a desirable solution to maintain product stability on shelves and eliminate the need for preservatives and surfactants which may cause irritation.  This has allowed a natural base formulation to be developed.

We have extended our product offerings to include a range of potential organogels.  We contract out manufacture.  Our aim is to provide your customers with scientifically validated products that are safe to use due to their increased stability.
