Gels used in personal care products serve a range of functions—from delivering active ingredients and moisturizing the skin to providing hold in hair styling applications. Their performance depends heavily on achieving the right texture and flow characteristics, which influence how the product feels, spreads, and behaves during use. Whether the goal is a lightweight, fast-absorbing facial gel or a firm-hold styling product, understanding the physical properties is essential for both product development and quality control.

To support these needs, we offer comprehensive testing solutions focused on the rheological and textural behavior of gel-based formulations. Our capabilities include the measurement of critical properties such as viscosity profiles, shear thinning behavior, structural recovery, firmness, tack, and cohesiveness. Using both rotational rheometers and texture analyzers, we replicate real-world conditions like spreading and rubbing to capture how a product performs throughout its lifecycle. These analyses provide clear, quantifiable insights that guide formulation improvements, verify production consistency, and support performance-related claims.Â
