Core Biogenesis chief commercial officer Tony Abboud has been awarded the Alan B. & Jeanette Black Award by the US Society of Cosmetic Chemists (SCC).
The gong recognises outstanding contributions in sustainable formulation technology and was presented in connection with the SCC’s 79th Annual Scientific Meeting in New York City.
Abboud was selected for this honour based on his presentation, ‘Advancing Sustainable Bioactive Production: Leveraging Plant-Based Systems as Biofactories for the Personal Care Industry’.
Abboud’s work showcases how Core Biogenesis’ proprietary biotechnology platform is redefining the way high-value cosmetic ingredients are produced - delivering unmatched performance, purity, and sustainability at scale.
“This award underscores our commitment to building a more sustainable and science-driven future for the beauty and personal care industry,” he said.
“At Core Biogenesis, we’re translating advanced plant biotechnologies into next-generation actives that not only elevate product performance but also reduce environmental impact across the supply chain.”
The SCC said Abboud’s presentation reflects the type of forward-looking innovation that advanced the scientific community and leads the efforts toward a more sustainable future.
“The SCC is proud to recognize Mr. Abboud’s exceptional contributions to sustainable formulation technology,” added SCC chief executive Erica O’Grady.
