Crinipan® – Natural dandruff control for a healthy scalp

INCI designation: Propanediol Caprylate 

Talent: Reliably fights the cause of dandruff, triggered by the yeast Malassezia.

Dandruff, itching, an unpleasant tingling on the scalp – many know this problem. Crinipan® is a modern active ingredient derived from renewable raw materials against dandruff¹that works in a new way: It is activated by the dandruff-causing yeast itself. Learn here what is behind the natural alternative to classic synthetic active ingredients and why it is so effective.

An active ingredient of the new generation – bio-based and highly effective

Crinipan® is a micro-activated, sustainable anti-dandruff active ingredient. Unlike classic anti-dandruff active ingredients such as climbazole or zinc pyrithione – both synthetically produced substances – Crinipan® relies on a different mode of action: the active ingredient is only activated by the dandruff fungus itself. This makes it an intelligent and gentle active ingredient for the scalp.

The mechanism of action of Crinipan®

Crinipan® is recognized by the yeast fungus Malassezia – the main cause of dandruff – as a natural sebum lipid and absorbed. The fungus enzymatically splits the active ingredient into two molecules: Propandiol and Caprylic acid. The released caprylic acid in turn inhibits the growth of the fungus and thus naturally reduces dandruff formation – directly at the source. This mechanism makes Crinipan® a so-called microactivated active ingredient, which specifically acts against dandruff – and supports the natural balance of the scalp microbiome.

The effect of Crinipan® on the scalp and microbiome

Dandruff occurs when the scalp microbiome is out of balance: studies show that certain Malasseziaspecies increase disproportionately during dandruff formation and disrupt the microbial balance. Crinipan® can lead to a healthier ratio of dominant scalp bacteria and restore the microbiome to balance. A healthy scalp therefore starts with a balanced microbiome – and this is exactly where Crinipan® comes in.
