History
History of the Society of Cosmetic Chemists Thailand (SCCT)
The Society of Cosmetic Chemists Thailand (SCCT) was established in 1996 by pioneering scientists and industry professionals who recognized the need for a unified platform to promote cosmetic science in Thailand. From its inception, the society has not only championed scientific advancement but also fostered collaboration between academia, industry, regulators, and the global cosmetic community.
Milestones and Achievements
1996: SCCT founded with the mission to elevate standards and professional knowledge in cosmetic science across Thailand.
1997–2005: Under the vision of its inaugural president, SCCT developed its first professional seminars and created connections with regional societies, supporting the Thai cosmetic sector’s rapid growth.
2006–2010: The second president’s leadership saw SCCT achieve full membership in the International Federation of Societies of Cosmetic Chemists (IFSCC), providing Thai members critical access to international research and opportunities.
2011: A landmark year—the society successfully hosted the IFSCC Conference in Bangkok, welcoming delegates from around the world and raising Thailand’s profile in global cosmetic science.
2012–2016: SCCT expanded its offering with regular seminars, member-focused workshops, and industry-academia networking events. Scholarships and student grants were introduced, paving the way for the next generation of Thai cosmetic scientists.
2021–Present: SCCT has strengthened its global connections, expanded collaborations with leading societies and Research institution and prioritized sustainability, innovation, and professional development for all members.
President’s Message
Our society stands as a non-profit organization devoted to advancing cosmetic science by providing an open, inclusive platform for knowledge sharing. We believe in the unique strengths of Thailand—its rich heritage, natural diversity, and forward-thinking innovation—as elements that can inspire and propel cosmetic science to new heights, connecting to the world of cosmetic scientists.
Our vision is to foster an environment where scientific excellence, technological advancement, and ethical responsibility work seamlessly together. In today’s rapidly evolving world, cosmetics are more than products; they are essential for human well-being, confidence, and self-expression. True progress in cosmetic science demands technology that not only delivers better performance but also respects our environment and responds thoughtfully to society’s needs.
