Tests on Cosmetic Safety

Health must not be jeopardized by beauty

Consumer safety is of utmost importance for the whole cosmetic supply chain. Companies are constantly committed to ensure that their products are safe according to Cosmetic Regulation (EC) no. 1223/2009: it aims at guaranteeing the safety of the final consumer, and for this reason, each product must be evaluated before it is placed on the market.

As required by the Regulation, in vitro toxicity and in vivo safety tests are a fundamental tool to evaluate safety and skin tolerability of a cosmetic product.

Our laboratories are at your disposal to help you evaluating the compatibility of the cosmetic product to guarantee consumers its safe application. We offer a complete range of scientific studies to support the assessments on safety through in vitro toxicity tests and in vivo clinical studies to gather the essential data of the Integrated Testing Strategy (ITS).

The ITS identifies and classifies the risk of skin sensitization caused by a certain substance or compound.
