Croda’s latest innovation – ChromaPur™ CV2 and CV7

Developed from a patented technology, ChromaPur CV2 and CV7 are high quality spheroidal cellulose powders with a unique surface structure and morphology, enabling them to provide exceptional sensory and optical benefits, including a soft-focus effect in skin care, and a enhanced pay-off, coverage and colour intensity in colour cosmetics.

ChromaPur CV2 and CV7 are obtained from sustainable practices across the entire production cycle. Derived from upcycled black spruce and made from an environmentally friendly process, the two spheroidal cellulose powders are also 100% natural, vegan, readily biodegradable and COSMOS approved.
