PolyOne Helps Brands Gain Competitive Position in Organic Cosmetics

September 25, 2014

IRVING, Texas – PolyOne today launched a new range of organic-based colorants, part of the Colorsperse™ portfolio, at the South West Society of Cosmetics Chemists Supplier’s Day. In response to rising consumer demand for makeup that contains natural ingredients, these new color dispersions have been developed for lipsticks and anhydrous (oil-based) cosmetics.

In addition to increasing competitive market position, Colorsperse organic-based colorants also boost process efficiency by eliminating pigment grinding and additional quality checks, which often require multiple color corrections. This new line incorporates a plant-based carrier system and leads to a cleaner working environment than is typical with dry powder pigments.

Seth Tomasch, general manager, PolyOne, said, “Cosmetics brands can leverage our expertise in pigment dispersions to improve their competitive advantage with greater process efficiencies and enhanced consumer appeal that expands marketplace reach.”
