CP Kelco has announced that it has received ECOCERT validation across its portfolio offering to the personal care and cosmetic industries. CP Kelco has received validation on 21 products which are tailored to the requirements of these markets.
Bruce Hein, positioning manager, marketing – EMEA, said that: “This validation enhances our product offering to our customers, who require independent certification for organic labelled products.” A major trend within the personal care and cosmetic industries is the move away from synthetic thickeners to formulate with either plant based or natural viscosifiers. Hein adds: “By having ECOCERT validation, combined with our application expertise in formulating with natural polymers, helps fulfill this market trend and enables our customers to formulate organic or naturally certified products. We’re really excited about the possibilities this opens up.”
