COMPANY
Matter born from research.
We are an Italian company specialized in the design, engineering and production of ingredients and raw materials for the cosmetic industry, within the Ricci Chemicals Group.
Who we are
Materia Innovation designs and produces cosmetic ingredients: texturizers, delivery systems and functional actives. We operate within the Ricci Chemicals Group, an established player in the chemical sector — a foundation of solidity behind both development and production.
At this stage we are actively engaged in the research and development of new formulations, in producing them at scale, in delivering masters and lab courses, and in building our brand identity nationally and internationally.
We don't want to imitate the big players: we want to be the niche technical reference, with authentic R&D content, real data and concrete application cases.
