Anti-Aging – Funori Powder

Funori Powder is a natural polysaccharide-rich extract derived from red algae native to Japan, traditionally used for centuries in cleansing and skin conditioning. Due to its unique growth environment—alternating between full seawater submersion and direct UV exposure on coastal rocks—Funori has evolved exceptional resilience, moisture retention, and protective properties. Its viscous polysaccharides and taurine help reinforce the skin’s natural barrier, soothe irritation, and protect cells from dryness and oxidative stress.

Highly potent and effective even at concentrations as low as 1 ppm, Funori Powder is well suited for modern beauty formulations aiming for natural, gentle, and eco-friendly performance.

NAGASE supplies Funori Powder for EMEA markets along with full technical expertise, regulatory support (including China compliance), and international logistics capabilities.
