Advanced CNSL Technology
Over 40 years of product and manufacturing leadership
Cardolite develops and manufactures products based on cashew nutshell liquid (CNSL), a natural, non-food chain, and annually renewable biomaterial.

Cardolite’s high performance product portfolio is designed to address a range of needs in various markets and applications. By leveraging advantages offered by CNSL chemistry, these product help customers improve formulation properties and solve problems. With a strong focus on collaborating with customers, Cardolite provides detailed application test data as well as the possibility of custom-made products tailored to meet the demands of more pointed challenges.
Products are available worldwide and backed by a strong team to ensure local regulatory compliance.
