• The digital tool that supports the development of sunscreens is now even more comprehensive, with the integration of a cockpit functionality
• Integration of EcoSun Pass^® criteria for direct assessment of environmental impact of selected UV filter combinations
• Evaluation of the interaction of UV filters and emollients

BASF’s Care Creations^® has further refined the functionality and scope of its Sunscreen Simulator. The latest relaunch of the virtual laboratory now provides formulators and manufacturers with even more options for digitally defining the UV protection of a sun protection product. Sunscreen Simulator 4.0 offers an updated, customizable user interface. The new cockpit functionality guides users through the simulator and expands options for creating and managing projects and personal data. Access to helpful scientific support has also been integrated into the cockpit.
