Solazyme inks deal to take alguronic acid line across the pond

Solazyme has struck a deal to take its anti-aging skin care line, containing its alguronic acid ingredient, to the UK.

The US-based company launched its Algenist product line earlier in the year and has signed a distribution agreement with UK retailer, Space NK, to expand the product’s sales network.

“We are very excited to announce the launch of Algenist exclusively at Space NK stores,” said Nicky Kinnaird, Space NK, founder.

“This innovative skincare line, showcasing breakthrough anti-aging ingredient alguronic acid, fits perfectly within Space NK’s brand portfolio, and we anticipate as high a demand and success as Algenist has enjoyed since its launch in the United States.”
