Symrise Introduces a New Beauty, Microbiome Wellness Division

Symrise AG has introduced its new Care & Wellness Division to meet the rising global demand for integrated health, wellbeing, and beauty solutions. Part of its Scent & Care segment, the division combines expertise in cosmetic ingredients, health actives, and biotics strengthened by the 2025 Probi acquisition to offer a comprehensive, science-backed portfolio supporting topical, ingestible, and inside-out beauty applications.

By uniting these capabilities, Symrise strengthens its position at the intersection of science, demonstrated claims, and consumer demand for longer and healthier lives, translating its purpose-driven strategy into action: “We innovate in health, wellbeing and beauty, for the entire family’s everyday life.”

Consumers are increasingly looking for care solutions that combine proven efficacy with meaningful sensory experiences, whether applied topically, consumed, or integrated into holistic routines. This shift is driving demand for complete, market-ready concepts that blend scientific performance with lifestyle relevance.

With its Care & Wellness Division, Symrise moves beyond category-based offerings to a more connected care approach. By aligning five business units, the company aims to enhance synergies, accelerate innovation, and improve speed to market across beauty, personal care, biotics, supplements, and pet health enabling the development of effective topical, ingestible, and inside-out solutions.

“Establishing Care & Wellness is a natural next step in our evolution,” said Dr. Jean Yves Parisot, CEO of Symrise. “By bringing together our capabilities in cosmetic ingredients and health solutions, we are delivering integrated innovations that help our customers shape the future of care, to support consumers pursuing healthier longevity. This Division reinforces our commitment to scientific excellence, sustainable growth and long term value creation.” 

“The creation of the Care & Wellness Division reflects how care is evolving across industries,” said Timothy Kenny, President, Care & Wellness Division. “Consumers are no longer thinking in single categories, they expect solutions that support beauty, health and wellbeing together. By uniting our capabilities, we can support our customers in developing innovative concepts that deliver both proven efficacy and meaningful consumer experiences.”

Symrise’s Care & Wellness Division integrates beauty and health to deliver science-backed solutions supporting everyday wellbeing from skin health to the gut microbiome. Leveraging global R&D, manufacturing, and partnerships, it enables faster innovation and market-ready concepts that combine efficacy with meaningful consumer experiences across topical, ingestible, and holistic applications.
