Heavy metals: a world tour of tests

Heavy metals: a world tour of tests

Heavy metals are naturally occurring metallic elements with properties that are hazardous to human health, and their presence in the manufacturing process cannot be completely prevented, even with exemplary industry practices in place. Powder and cream products, decorative cosmetics and toothpaste are particularly likely to be contaminated with heavy metals due to their high levels of inorganic / mineral components.

So, it's important to be aware of the main regulations (European, Chinese, American and Canadian) that have set standards for measuring heavy metals in cosmetic products.

Eurofins Cosmetics & Personal Care provides solutions to meet the regulatory requirements at each step of the product’s life cycle. Our team of experts are highly skilled at generating comprehensive, cost-effective and practical customised test plans and offers.
