The cosmetics industry continues to evolve as manufacturers expand their product ranges to meet changing market needs. Alongside this growth, quality and regulatory requirements are also evolving. ISO 22716:2007 provides guidelines for Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) for cosmetic products, covering all stages of manufacturing from raw material sourcing through to production, packaging, storage, and distribution. To meet these requirements, manufacturers rely on rigorous testing and specialised laboratory equipment to support product safety, quality, and consistency.

OHAUS Incubating & Incubating Cooling Shakers allow cosmetic manufacturers to test and monitor the microbiological safety of their products, while OHAUS Hot Plates & Stirrers are used in cosmetics labs to heat and mix different formulations. OHAUS Overhead Stirrers are used to create emulsions and ensure active ingredients are distributed evenly throughout the formulations. OHAUS Lab Balances measure precise amounts of raw materials and finished products, and OHAUS Moisture Analysers determine the water content of products. OHAUS Centrifuges can be used to separate components based on density and size. An OHAUS pH meter is also essential as pH is the measurement is critical to maintaining the right pH for safety and effectiveness.
