Overview
Produced from all-natural, biodegradable, and renewable resources, ESP EcoCel is the direct replacement to traditional, synthetic, microplastics (such as Nylon 12) used in many pressed powder color cosmetics on the market today. ESP EcoCel is uniquely positioned to be the leading material of choice as the personal care industry evolves and moves toward using cleaner ingredients, due in part to regulatory trends and increased consumer demand for sustainable beauty products.
ESP EcoCel is incredibly easy to incorporate into current product lines, requiring little to no change in existing production frameworks. ESP EcoCel is 100% “Safe to Use”, which means that formulators, consumers, and legislators do not need to fear about microplastic particles ever appearing in the food chain or environment. ESP EcoCel is an eco-conscious material, made from ingredients that have a long history of outstanding effectiveness and global compliance.
ESP EcoCel is the material designed for the forward-thinking formulator.
