PARSIPPANY, N.J., USA – May 12th, 2026 – Sun Chemical today announces the launch of its new ACI-5000 SunPURO® Natural V. Charcoal Powder, a 100% natural-origin charcoal powder derived from upcycled paper and pulp by‑products. ACI-5000 SunPURO® Natural V. Charcoal Powder will be showcased at Booth 1932, at the NYSCC Suppliers’ Day tradeshow, in New York City (May 19-20th), expanding on the company’s SunPURO® Naturals product line and reinforcing Sun Chemical’s commitment to responsible, performance-driven raw materials for cosmetics.
Designed for natural personal care and skincare formulations, Sun Chemical’s ACI-5000 SunPURO® Natural V. Charcoal Powder offers:
- Natural opacifying properties for cosmetics, cleansers, masks, and rinse-off formulations

In addition to the new charcoal powder, Sun Chemical will showcase its growing portfolio of synthetic mica-based effect pigments, engineered for high purity, clean color, and brilliant luminosity, including Sunshine® Peach Bronze C83-3080.
