</div>ROTTERDAM, The Netherlands, June 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Univar Solutions B.V., a subsidiary of Univar Solutions LLC (“Univar Solutions" or "the Company"), a leading global solutions provider to users of specialty ingredients and chemicals, today announced an expanded distribution partnership with American Distilling through its Ingredients + Specialties from Univar Solutions division. Under the new agreement, Univar Solutions will distribute American Distilling’s portfolio of high-quality, natural specialty ingredients. The agreement includes traditional witch hazel (alcohol-free options and customizable grades) for personal care, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical applications across select European, Middle Eastern, and African (EMEA) markets*. "Partnering with American Distilling in EMEA helps position us as a leading and trusted distributor for this product range while strengthening our botanical extract offering,” said Nick Powell, CEO of Ingredients + Specialties from Univar Solutions. “We’ve long supported these specialty ingredients in North America, and with a robust supply chain and experienced technical teams now available regionally, we’re able to offer local stock and faster supply availability to customers.” Witch hazel is a multifunctional botanical extract used in facial care, cleansers, body washes, hair care, eye gels, and personal hygiene products. Native to the woodlands of the Northeastern United States, this Hamamelis-derived ingredient offers natural astringent, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antimicrobial benefits. As a gentle, plant-based alternative to synthetic astringents, it supports a broad range of applications, from toners and moisturizers to pads, ointments, creams, sprays, and therapeutic formulations, enhancing both natural content and overall product performance. “This partnership represents an important step in bringing high-quality United States Pharmacopeia (USP) witch hazel products to customers across the EMEA region,” said Bryan Jackowitz, vice president of American Distilling, Inc. “By collaborating with Univar Solutions, we are now able to market our full portfolio of cosmetic and pharmaceutical witch hazel extracts, giving customers greater flexibility to identify the solution that best fits their specific application needs, with a robust distribution infrastructure to help strengthens their supply chains. We are excited about the long-term potential of this collaboration and look forward to growing together.” With the addition of this portfolio, Univar Solutions further solidifies its position as a leading distributor of high-performance ingredients for brands shaping the next generation of beauty, personal care, and pharmaceutical products. Customers benefit from the Company’s comprehensive formulation support, advanced laboratory capabilities, deep market insights, and robust distribution network. The Company also offers access to its global Solution Center in Essen, Germany, providing regional support for product development and scale-up.
