ISO 22716:2007 – Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) for Cosmetics
What is ISO 22716:2007?
ISO 22716:2007 is the international standard for Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) in the cosmetics industry. It provides comprehensive guidelines for the production, control, storage, and shipment of cosmetic products to ensure their quality, safety, and consistency.
This standard establishes practical and organizational criteria that help manufacturers comply with global regulations while minimizing product risks. It ensures that every step in the manufacturing process—from raw material handling to finished product delivery—is performed under controlled and hygienic conditions.
Achieving ISO 22716 certification demonstrates your organization’s commitment to producing safe, high-quality cosmetic products that meet both consumer expectations and regulatory requirements.
