Question 1

What does cosmetics contract manufacturing cost at Avoria GmbH?

Accepted Answer

Costs depend on the product category (shampoo, cream, soap, private label), the formulation complexity, the scope of analysis (HPLC, GC-MS, microbiological testing), the container format and the order quantity. For a reliable calculation we need the product specification or recipe, target volume, planned INCI profile and desired container format. Inquiries via the contact page are processed on working days.

Question 2

What minimum order quantities apply to cosmetic products?

Accepted Answer

MOQs vary by product category, raw material availability and container format. For personal care products on common formulation bases, the typical minimum quantity is 100-300 kg of finished product. For hair care and specialty cosmetics: from approx. 100-500 kg depending on formulation complexity. Different minimum quantities apply to fully customer-specific private label formulations - please specify in the inquiry.

Question 3

Does Avoria GmbH supply a safety data sheet and certificate of analysis for cosmetic products?

Accepted Answer

Yes. For all CLP-classified cosmetic formulations - especially alcohol-based deodorants (Flam. Liq. 2) and products with classified active ingredients - we prepare a safety data sheet (SDS) in the 16-section format per REACH (EC) 1907/2006 Art. 31 as standard scope. The certificate of analysis is prepared from actual production data: active ingredient concentration, pH value, viscosity.

Question 4

Can Avoria GmbH also produce private label cosmetics?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Avoria GmbH produces cosmetics for private label brands, OEM clients and retail own brands. We supply the complete production documentation package - batch record, raw material certificate chain, certificate of analysis, production parameters - as the production-side basis for the client's CPSR and product information file (PIF). The role of the Responsible Person (RP) under the EU Cosmetics Regulation remains with the client who places the product on the EU market.

Question 5

What documentation is required for the EU Cosmetics Regulation (EC) 1223/2009?

Accepted Answer

The product information file (PIF) maintained by the client must contain: the CPSR (cosmetic product safety report) by a qualified safety assessor, product description, GMP conformity declaration, the manufacturer's batch records, evidence for the stated efficacy claims and raw material safety data. Avoria GmbH supplies the manufacturer-side documentation: batch records, raw material certificate chain, certificate of analysis with production parameters. The CPSR itself is commissioned by the client from an accredited safety assessor - not by Avoria.

Question 6

Does Avoria GmbH test cosmetic raw materials analytically before processing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. In the in-house laboratory at the production site in Roßtal, incoming raw material batches are tested analytically - HPLC for active ingredient identity and concentration (panthenol, preservatives, vitamin C, cetyl alcohol), GC-MS for fragrance component profiling. Release is based on a formal test report. Specification deviations are detected at raw material level, before processing.

Question 7

Does Avoria GmbH hold an ISO 22716 GMP certification for cosmetics?

Accepted Answer

Avoria GmbH operates under ISO 9001 quality management with a HACCP-monitored production environment and an in-house laboratory. ISO 22716 is the specific GMP standard for cosmetics production. Our ISO 9001 system covers the equivalent process controls, batch documentation, raw material management and quality release procedures. For clients whose trading partners require an explicit ISO 22716 certification: this specific certification is not held; the ISO 9001 + HACCP framework with documented in-house analytical batch release addresses the underlying GMP requirements operationally.
