With Suprima, Merck is the first pigment manufacturer to launch a quality brand that groups several selected products under one umbrella. For the cosmetic market, Merck is launching the Ronastar Golden Jewel and Ronastar Noble Sparks products under the Suprima umbrella.
Three main factors differentiate these products from other brands. Firstly, Merck has set the highest purity standards with regard to the heavy metal content. Using tailored ‘full digestion’ test methods, Suprima products are examined in great detail. The resulting measurements relating to the twelve most relevant heavy metals are documented in the dossier. Secondly, Merck fully complies with the latest GMP standards of the European Federation for Cosmetic Ingredients (EFfCI) for cosmetic raw materials. The products manufactured at the Gernsheim (Germany) and Savannah (US) production sites meet the stringent EFfCI requirements. Thirdly, the quality brand’s dossier contains comprehensive colouristic data, which makes it easier for customers to evaluate the effect pigments.
