The Lubrizol Corporation was awarded the Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) certification according to the European Federation for Cosmetics Ingredients (EFfCI). EFfCI is a European trade association that brings together manufacturers of synthetic and natural ingredients for the cosmetics and personal care industry.
Their GMP certification is based on very strict guidelines of maintaining product quality and industry hygiene during the manufacturing process. Lubrizol received the certification for its manufacturing of acrylic acid polymers including Carbopol Polymers and Pemulen polymeric emulsifiers in Lubrizol’s facility in Kallo, Belgium.
“We are extremely proud of this achievement,” said Jeff Carey, global product management director for Lubrizol personal and home care. “Lubrizol’s team of experts in R&D, manufacturing, logistics and customer service all take quality seriously. We develop each and every product to meet the high quality standards that our customers demand. It’s all part of our growth strategy to provides solutions to the personal care global market.”
