· FTIR
· Sieve analysis
· Particle size distribution
Key substances are screened qualitatively and quantitatively upon request. We would be pleased to support you also with specific analytical issues or studies related to our products.
Microbiology and Hygiene
Within the scope of microbiological quality control, our products are tested for safety in terms of bioburden. Determination of aerobic bacteria, yeasts and moulds, as well as the absence of specific bacteria is carried out by means of validated microbiological culture and screening procedures.
The microbiological methods and specifications are prepared according to the guidelines recommended for cosmetics based on ISO and USP/EP.
Hygiene measures and process water control are essential elements in our production and tested following standard operation procedures (SOP). Applications of good hygiene practice and hygiene awareness are promoted by regular training courses.
