What is Formaldehyde?

Formaldehyde is a chemical compound that can be used as a preservative or might be present as an impurity in cosmetic raw materials. While highly restricted or banned in cosmetics under regulations like 1223/2009/EC, verifying its absence or ensuring adherence to legal limits is crucial for product integrity.

Why is Formaldehyde Detection Important?

Even though direct claims of “formaldehyde-free” for cosmetic products are not allowed in the EU due to the substance being banned or highly regulated (meaning no company should be using it anyway), our service is vital for purity verification and quality control. It helps you:

• Ensure Regulatory Compliance: Confirm your products meet stringent global regulations regarding residual or trace amounts of formaldehyde.
• Verify Raw Material Quality: Screen incoming raw materials to prevent unintentional contamination.
• Support Internal Quality Control: Maintain the highest standards for product safety and purity.
