— Our approach —
Cosmetics compliance
in 5 steps
Understanding compliance requirements early — during supplier selection, formulation, claims decisions and distribution planning — is essential for market readiness. TRC offers a clear and transparent 5-step approach, starting with a free Prescan. At any point you can appoint TRC as your Responsible Person for the EU and UK, or as your US Agent for ongoing compliance support.
A free pre-assessment of your product portfolio.
Regulatory, safety and documentation support tailored to the EU, UK, USA and Canada — from safety assessments and certifications to Responsible Person and Agent services.
Building a compliant Product Information File together.
We work jointly with your team to create a complete and compliant Product Information File (PIF). This includes tailored templates and checklists for your R&D, manufacturing, quality control and procurement teams, so that all required information is captured correctly and efficiently from the start.
In-house CPSR by our toxicologists and chemists.
Our in-house toxicologists and chemists carry out the full safety assessment, resulting in a Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR) — a mandatory document for the EU and UK markets. Alongside the CPSR, we produce regulatory content briefs to guide label and claims development.
Regulatory content briefs and artwork review.
We deliver regulatory content briefs that include compliant INCI ingredient listings, mandatory statements and claims guidance. We then review your final artwork and marketing materials to ensure everything is in order before launch — preventing costly issues post-market.
The final step to placing your product on the market.
With documentation complete, we handle the final submission steps: product notification via CPNP as your EU Responsible Person, SCPN notification for the UK, or FDA product listing for the USA. Your product is ready for market.
