Regulations

Keeping up with legislative changes is crucial, and our technical advisors ensure we stay informed and compliant. We source materials from reputable suppliers, ensuring all products meet legal requirements.

For client-supplied materials, we can connect you with organisations that conduct testing and prepare necessary documentation. Besides REACH and CLP, we will advise if your product falls under other UK & EU legislation for Cosmetics, Detergents, or Biocides. Our base formulas and generic products come with regulatory documentation for distribution and Safety Data Sheets are available where applicable.

We hold Product Information Files (PIF) and act as the Responsible Person in both the UK and EU for around 30 approved personal care formulas under the Cosmetic Regulation.  This free of charge service ensures your product is placed on the market legally, with Guardpack notifying the appropriate authorised bodies on your behalf. If you require alterations to our existing formulas, we will assist in preparing Cosmetic Product Safety Reports and updates to the PIF files and can arrange, where necessary, new Stability or Challenge tests.  There is a surcharge for new formulas and client materials.

Our team of experts will also assist with labelling to ensure your product is compliant with the relevant legislation.
