Vantage Agrees New Partnership with The Ingredients Store® to Expand Digital Access to Specialty Ingredients

Barcelona & UK, 29 September 2026

We're delighted to announce a new partnership between The Ingredients Store and Vantage, a global manufacturer and supplier of specialty ingredients and natural oils for the personal care, cosmetics and wider formulation industries.

As part of the partnership we've launched a dedicated Vantage Specialty Ingredients collection, giving our customers easier access to a selected portfolio of Vantage materials, including specialty emollients, botanical extracts, humectants, functional ingredients and natural oils from the Lipovol® range.

Why This Partnership Matters

This partnership marks an important development in the way established ingredient manufacturers connect with the next generation of brands, formulators and manufacturers. As the cosmetics, personal care and consumer goods markets evolve, customers increasingly expect faster access to technical ingredients, flexible order sizes, digital product information and responsive support.

That's exactly what The Ingredients Store was built for. We supply hundreds of indie brands, formulators, laboratories and manufacturers across cosmetics, personal care, wellness, home fragrance and wider consumer product sectors, with a platform built around accessibility, technical support and flexible online ordering.

Christopher Holmes, CEO of The Ingredients Store, said:

“We are delighted to partner with Vantage and bring a wider selection of their specialty oils and ingredients to customers through The Ingredients Store. Our platform has been built to support the way modern brands, formulators and manufacturers want to source ingredients — quickly, digitally and with access to the right technical information.

Vantage has a strong reputation for quality, innovation and ingredient expertise, and we see a significant opportunity to make these materials more accessible to the businesses developing the next generation of personal care, cosmetic and consumer products.”

What's in the Vantage Collection?

The collection features a carefully selected range of ingredients for skincare, haircare, personal care and cosmetic formulation. Alongside specialty ingredients, the Lipovol® natural oils give you high-quality oil-based materials for a wide range of formulation needs.

A New Digital Channel for Vantage

For Vantage, the collaboration provides a complementary digital channel to support customer discovery and access across selected markets. For us, it's another important step in our growth as a trusted online platform for specialty oils, ingredients and raw materials.

Lautaro Tuya, Specialist, Pricing EMEA & APAC at Vantage Specialty Chemicals, said:

“Serving every tier of the market fast and with high quality is important to us, and this partnership allows us to do exactly that in EMEA. Through The Ingredients Store, formulators and makers who need smaller quantities of our ingredients now have a straightforward, reliable way to access the Vantage portfolio. We see this as a meaningful extension of our reach, and a strong foundation for growing together.”

The partnership reflects a broader shift in the ingredients market, where digital distribution is becoming increasingly important for both established manufacturers and fast-moving product developers. By combining Vantage's ingredient expertise with our digital-first model, we aim to make specialist materials easier to access, evaluate and purchase.

Christopher Holmes added:

“This partnership is an important step in our growth journey. The Ingredients Store was built to make high-quality ingredients more accessible to brands, formulators and manufacturers, shaping the future of personal care, cosmetics and consumer products. Working with Vantage allows us to bring a globally recognised portfolio of specialty oils and ingredients to a wider customer base through a modern, digital-first distribution model.”
