Cosmetics Industry Quality, Regulatory and Compliance Services

As of June of 2013, without doing anything different, your cosmetic manufacturing company took on much more risk.   That month, FDA issued a comprehensive guidance on good manufacturing practices for cosmetic products — and — the FDA intends to enforce them!

Cosmetic GMPsThe cosmetics industry is a $243+ billion global industry.  Advertising, marketing and the creation of imagery for new products are critically important to your company’s ability to drive customer demand.  However, if your products do not meet the quality expectations of your customers and/or the regulators, your business can suffer.   Even the smallest firms are in the crosshairs of the FDA — for the big firms, there’s little tolerance for failure to meet expectations.

For the cosmetics industry, manufacturing matters.   It is foundational to your success, your brand, and your reputation.  It is something that must support your overall business model, and certainly, it is something that cannot detract from your company and product stories.

In an industry steeped in beauty and appearance, your company can’t afford to have product manufacturing issues – or FDA regulatory issues – negatively impact your well-crafted image.
