Hi, how are you?
In this issue, we will introduce silica, which is an abundant, environmental-friendly and sustainable resource.
Silica is a highly abundant compound which is found in the Earth’s crust. It makes up about 59% of the planet’s total mass. Furthermore, silica is a major component of more than 95% of all known rocks, and most sand is composed of it. Silica is an extremely abundant resource on the Earth.
SUNJIN BEAUTY SCIENCE’s silica is made from silica sand mined at the Cape Flattery Silica Sand Mine in Australia. The mine has been in operation since 1967 and covers an area of approximately 63 square kilometers. It has a significant amount of silica resources that are still undeveloped. Therefore, there is enough silica to be used for the next 100 years.
Sand which was existing on Australian beaches crossed the sea and arrived at SUNJIN BEAUTY SCIENCE, where it was manufactured into silica products, the SUNSIL series, and sold to various customers around the world.
Silica is a renewable resource that can be returned to the nature, unlike micro plastics. Micro plastics end up into the ocean and damage the marine ecosystem, but silica doesn’t harm it as it is a naturally occurred substance.
SUNJIN BEAUTY SCIENCE is committed to manufacturing renewable silica products. We hope that you can be a consumer who protects and cares about the earth and environment by using our silica products.
If you have any inquiries or need more information about silica products from SUNJIN, please feel free to contact us.
