COSMOS Certification: Quality and Sustainability Guarantee in Cosmetics
COSMOS certification has become a benchmark for quality and sustainability in the cosmetics industry. This certification ensures that labeled products meet strict environmental and health standards, providing consumers with a guarantee of authenticity and transparency.
Main Guarantees of COSMOS Certification
1. Environmentally friendly production and processing processes
COSMOS certification guarantees that production and processing processes are respectful of the environment and human health. This includes the development of environmentally friendly chemicals and the responsible use of natural resources.
2. Respect for Biodiversity
COSMOS certified products must respect biodiversity, ensuring that no ingredients are used that could harm ecosystems.
3. Absence of Petrochemical Ingredients
Certified products do not contain petrochemical ingredients, such as parabens, phenoxyethanol, synthetic perfumes and dyes, except for authorized preservatives.
4. Absence of GMOs and Recyclable Packaging
The certification also guarantees the absence of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and promotes the use of recyclable packaging.
Transparency and Verification
All products marketed with the Ecocert logo have been rigorously verified, from composition to processing and packaging. This ensures that consumers receive transparent information about the content of natural and organic ingredients in the products.
ECOCERT COSMOS NATURAL
COSMOS certification ensures that all ingredients are of natural origin, with the exception of a restrictive list of approved ingredients (including preservatives) authorised in small quantities. On average, Ecocert-certified products contain 99% ingredients of natural origin.
ECOCERT COSMOS ORGANIC
For a beauty care product to be certified by COSMOS ORGANIC, it must meet the following requirements:
- At least 95% of the plants it contains must be organic.
- At least 20% of organic ingredients must be present in the total formula (10% for rinse-off products).
COSMOS certification not only guarantees the quality and sustainability of cosmetic products, but also promotes responsible practices that benefit both people's health and the planet.
