Hair care

Our extensive range of quality hair care ingredients are consumer-inspired, sustainability-driven, and science-based to satisfy the diverse and complex needs of the modern consumer.

Everyone’s hair has unique and specific needs but all share common goals; caring for the health of hair and keeping it looking great. Hair care is about looking AND feeling good and modern hair care formulations need to meet both criteria. For deeply transformative results, beautiful hair requires care that extends beyond the surface, encompassing the scalp and extending all the way from root to tip.

At Croda, our goal is to create ingredients that will connect consumer products with consumer desires. With a passionate team of hair experts, we use chemistry to meet the aspirations of future consumers and turn these visions into sustainable, state of the art technology that delivers outstanding performance.

As part of our ongoing commitment to sustainability, we are continuously evaluating our hair care portfolio. This includes modernising the preservative chemistries in our biopolymer range to meet evolving market trends and enhance the overall environmental profile of our range.
