Grant Industries
Grant Industries' Granpowder CSC is a next-generation, biodegradable powder designed for high-performance beauty and personal care applications. Developed as a sustainable alternative to traditional microplastic powders, this innovative ingredient offers a unique blend of functionality and eco-conscious design.
Engineered with a proprietary surface-coating technology, Granpowder CSC is composed of food-grade Zea Mays (Corn) Starch and Calcium Silicate. This combination provides superior sensory performance, delivering a velvety-smooth texture, excellent slip, and enhanced application feel. Its polyhedral-to-subspherical particle shape ensures a soft-focus effect, blurring imperfections for a flawless finish.
Granpowder CSC's standout performance extends to its exceptional oil absorption capabilities, matching the performance of market-leading synthetic powders like Polymethylsilsesquioxane (Gransil PSQ). This makes it an ideal choice for oil control and matte formulations, while its light-diffusing properties provide an elegant, photo-ready finish in color cosmetics and skin care.
Beyond its sensory and visual benefits, Granpowder CSC aligns with sustainability goals. It is fully biodegradable, decomposing into water, CO₂, and sand, minimizing environmental impact. Its low-emission, near-ambient temperature manufacturing process further underscores its eco-friendly credentials.
This versatile ingredient is compatible with a wide range of formulations, including skin care, suncare, color cosmetics, and haircare. It can be easily incorporated into oil-in-water (O/W), water-in-oil (W/O), and anhydrous systems, offering formulators flexibility without sacrificing performance.
Granpowder CSC is a clean, high-performance solution for brands seeking a sustainable alternative to microplastics without compromising on quality or sensory experience. Whether for soft-focus primers, creamy blushes, or soothing skin care products, it redefines sustainable luxury in beauty.
