We develop formulas to your individual specifications in our modern laboratories, drawing on our decades of experience. Driven by curiosity and the highest quality standards, we are constantly on the lookout for skin-friendly and improved ingredients and active complexes. Another focus of our research is to find substitutes for substances which pollute the environment. We are therefore always keen to concentrate on the development and implementation of sustainable solutions.
When creating new products, the close cooperation between Research & Development, Product Management and Production is an important prerequisite for speed and flexibility. This is also reflected in our capacity for innovation. Full documentation and compliance with current EU Directives and the EC Regulation on cosmetic products are a matter of course for us.

Our Quality Control section monitors the processes along the entire value added chain. It ensures that the only products which leave the sites are those which meet the requirements of our customers in every respect, because consistent quality can only be achieved with high production and hygiene standards.

We safeguard the quality of our processes by conducting regular internal and external audits and through the consistent application of GMP for cosmetic products (Good Manufacturing Practice) with reference to DIN EN ISO 22716 in accordance with the EC Regulation on cosmetic products. Packaging materials, raw materials, semi-finished articles and the finished products are inspected for flawless quality and tested in respect of their intended use and durability. A computer-controlled quality management system enables us to react swiftly and without unnecessary complications. We guarantee full batch traceability for each individual process step, from the delivery of the source materials all the way to the end products.

These are the measures which we have put in place to safeguard our quality standards:

  • Inspection and documentation of packaging and raw materials on receipt
  • Microbiological and analytical testing of raw materials, bulk goods and finished products
  • Regular hygiene checks and monitoring of compliance with hygiene regulations

We are aware that only consistently high standards and reliable checking processes can guarantee consistently excellent quality in the long term.
