COSMEBIO
Created in 2002 by the collaboration of about ten cosmetic laboratories working on job specifications for ethical cosmetics, COSMEBIO is today an association with more than 140 members and close to 4000 certified products.
Today the organic and natural market is rapidly expanding and many brands are using the organic appellation for marketing purposes, sometimes for products that contain natural ingredients in very small quantities and no organic ingredients at all.
Cosmébio's charter led to the filing of very exacting job specifications with the Ministry of Industry, which were published in the Official Gazette on 9 April 2003. These specifications very strictly define, in full transparency and without ambiguity, "environment-friendly and organic cosmetics" and guide consumers seeking authentic natural and organic products. The charter, specially drawn up for the field of cosmetics, goes far beyond the presence in the formula of products stemming from organic farming.
Cosmébio represents the entire sector involved in natural and organic cosmetics, such as :
Raw material and ingredient suppliers
Custom manufacturers
Cosmetic laboratories
Distributors
