Intercos Turns 40

BOLOGNA, Italy — Intercos, the world color specialist among suppliers, celebrated its 40th anniversary with a forward-looking trend presentation that also sums up the spirit of the company’s past.

Intercos this year evolved its three-year-old Prisma Shine powder offering. In addition, it took a more holistic approach. Rather than simply displaying trend ideas or individual products, the firm presented ready-for-market collections. Intercos is also evolving its skin care catalogue, thanks to a joint venture it recently set up — Vitalab, in Naples — which allows it to produce its own active ingredients.
