Our Cosmetics Certifications
Our certifications are well recognized in the cosmetics industry, valid worldwide and do not have to be renewed. They have been developed by our team of scientists, toxicologists and regulatory experts.
Our logos can be added to your website and packaging labels to boost your marketing and inform consumers with honesty and transparency.
Natural and Organic
Certification
Since the late 2000s, following a series of reports on the alleged dangers of cosmetics, consumers have shown renewed interest in products of natural and organic origin. Biorius developed Natural and Organic Certifications therefore.
In 2016 alone, the global market for organic and natural cosmetics accounted for more than 11 billion euros; roughly 5.5% of the cosmetics market, with this figure expected to double by 2024.
Vegan
Certifications
Vegan certification highlights the importance your cosmetic brand places on animal well-being and allows you to share a wider message with your consumers regarding your brand’s ethics and values.
Among other elements, a vegan-certified cosmetic product is defined as containing no animal ingredients or by-products, using no animal ingredients or by-products in the manufacturing process and no testing on animals by any company or independent contractor.
As a reminder, European Cosmetics Regulation EC No 1223/2009 banned animal testing on cosmetic products in 2004 and on cosmetic ingredients in 2009 and 2013 (Article 18).
Reef-Friendly
Certification
Reef-Friendly Certification is great way for a brand and its consumers to show their commitment to helping reduce the alarming rate of coral reef damage.
In recent years there has been a sharp rise in consumers caring more and more about their environmental impact and climate change.
Biorius developed a Reef Friendly Certification therefore.
Clean
Certification
The BIORIUS ‘Clean’ certification is based on a modern, benevolent and positive worldview aimed at protecting the planet and its people. BIORIUS’ DNA ensures a certification that is scientifically robust and fully compliant with all relevant regulatory requirements.
Gluten-Free and Soy-Free
Certification
‘Gluten-Free’ or ‘Soy-Free’ marketing communications include labels on cosmetics, as they highlight necessary information for specific groups of consumers. This certification helps people who are gluten/soy intolerant or have coeliac disease make well-informed decisions when selecting a cosmetic product.
BIORIUS’ ‘Gluten-Free’ certification is a trustworthy designation issued by independent third-party experts, ensuring that the product does not contain any wheat, rye, oats, barley or any other form of gluten, while BIORIUS’ “Soy-Free” certification ensures that no soy exists in the final product.
Gmo-Free
Certification
Plant-based cosmetic ingredients and food-based ingredients are common in the cosmetics industry. However, in a world where a great deal of importance is placed on health and nature, it can be beneficial for a brand to highlight its non-GMO certified products. GMO-Free certification will help you stand out from your competitors.
