Regulatory Compliance for Fragrances and Cosmetic Products

Cosmetics regulation, ingredient disclosure, and product safety.

Overview

Why Fragrances and Cosmetic Products Require Specific Compliance

Your cosmetic products and fragrances are governed by the EU Cosmetics Regulation. Safety assessments, product information files, CPNP notification, and ingredient compliance are mandatory. Fragrance and cosmetic ingredients are also subject to REACH and other restrictions.

We support you with regulatory strategy, safety documentation, ingredient compliance, and the interface between cosmetics regulation and chemical legislation (CLP, REACH) where relevant.
