What is Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC)?
MCC is a chemically inert substance β the human body doesnβt absorb it, and the skin shows no reaction.
Itβs widely used as a binder and texturizer in pharma, food, and cosmetics to ensure proper weight and structure of products.
Though safe, its manufacturing involves risks if safety protocols are ignored β highlighting the urgent need for strong safety culture in industrial plants.
