Avobenzone is a broad-spectrum UVA filter and one of the most important organic UV filters used in modern sunscreen formulations. It belongs to the dibenzoylmethane family and provides strong absorption in the UVA1 range (approximately 320–400 nm), offering essential protection against photoaging, long-term skin damage and UVA-induced pigmentation. As regulatory frameworks increasingly emphasize true broad-spectrum protection, Avobenzone remains a cornerstone ingredient in global sun-care products.
Avobenzone Broad-Spectrum UVA Sunscreen Filter from TCS INDUSTRIES LIMITED is supplied in a cosmetic-grade quality suitable for creams, lotions, gels, sprays and hybrid skincare-sunscreen formats. Its oil-soluble nature makes it easy to incorporate into the oil phase of emulsions, and it is compatible with a variety of emollients and co-filters. However, formulators need to consider the well-known photoinstability of Avobenzone: without proper stabilization, it can degrade under UV exposure, reducing protection efficacy.
To address this, Avobenzone is typically combined with other filters and stabilizers. Using synergistic UVB filters, antioxidant systems and chelators can significantly improve photostability and extend UVA protection over time. Many formulators also position Avobenzone within “skin-care plus protection” concepts by adding actives that defend against environmental stress and support skin recovery.
TCS INDUSTRIES LIMITED offers several complementary cosmetic actives that align well with advanced sun-care products. For instance, Ectoin is known for its cell-protective and moisture-balancing properties, making it a strong partner in formulas aimed at protecting the skin barrier from UV-induced stress. Similarly, Glutathione can be used in brightening and antioxidant-focused systems, supporting even tone and defense against oxidative damage.
For after-sun or daily defense products that combine UV filters with repair-focused actives, peptides such as Copper Tripeptide-1 1:1 HCL can help position the formula as both protective and rejuvenating. This allows brands to build more complete stories around long-term skin health and resilience.
With strong technical documentation, quality control and formulation support from TCS INDUSTRIES LIMITED, Avobenzone-based sunscreens can be optimized for broad-spectrum coverage, pleasant sensory profile, and regulatory compliance, helping brands stay competitive in the fast-evolving sun-care market.
