ECO CERT COSMOS
- What is the COSMOS certification for?
COSMOS certification allows you to market your organic or natural cosmetics.
The key guarantees of organic and natural cosmetics certification:
COSMOS certification guarantees:
- production and processing processes that respect the environment and human health
- the development of the green chemistry concept
- responsible use of natural resources
- respect for biodiversity
- the absence of petrochemical ingredients (excluding authorized preservatives): parabens, phenoxyethanol, synthetic fragrances and dyes
- the absence of GMOs
- recyclable packaging
How to obtain the COSMOS label on your products?
It is the certification according to the international COSMOS standard or the private Ecocert standard that allows you to label your natural or organic products.
All products marketed with the Ecocert logo have been verified by our teams: from the composition and the processing process to its packaging.
Consumers thus have access to transparent information on the content of natural and organic ingredients indicated on the products.
Natural origin
All ingredients used are of natural origin with the exception of a restrictive list of approved ingredients (including preservatives) authorized in small quantities.
On average, products certified by Ecocert contain 99% ingredients of natural origin
Promotion of organic
A beauty product is certified COSMOS ORGANIC only if:
- At least 95% of the plants it contains are organic
- At least 20% of organic ingredients are present in the formula in total (10% for rinse-off products)
Please note: Water or minerals are not considered 'organic' because they are not from agriculture. Since water is a major component of many cosmetic formulas, this implies a dilution of the proportion of organic ingredients in the total product. Thus, a massage oil that does not contain water can display up to 100% organic ingredients.
Who is this COSMOS label intended for?
The COSMOS organic and natural cosmetics label is intended for producers of raw materials, manufacturers of cosmetic products, brands or any player in the "cosmetics" sector.
