The cosmetics sector is subject to strict standards concerning product composition, labeling and ecological certification. European and international regulations require full traceability of ingredients, to ensure their safety and conformity.
Organic certifications, such as the "bio" label, require scientific proof of the natural origin of raw materials. Radiocarbon analysis is a reference method for validating the biobased origin of ingredients, guaranteeing compliance with ecological and regulatory standards.
This approach enables manufacturers to enhance the transparency of their supply chain and guarantee reliable products that comply with legal and environmental requirements.

Radiocarbon analysis of your cosmetic products enables us to determine their biobased material content. Whatever the type of ingredient (emulsifiers, emollients, pigments, preservatives), our teams of scientists measure the proportion of natural versus synthetic components.
With CIRAM's measurements, and subject to a pMC of 100, you can label your 100% natural products.
The carbon 14 technique identifies adulteration or falsification of a raw material. By analyzing your inputs, you validate your suppliers and maintain reliable, consistent quality control.
Request a quoteRadiocarbon analysis certifies the organic origin of the raw materials used in your cosmetics. By validating the natural composition of ingredients, this analysis helps you to obtain official certifications, such as the organic label. This strengthens the confidence of consumers, who are concerned about the origin and authenticity of the products they buy.
By ensuring that your ingredients comply with organic standards, you can differentiate yourself in a market that is increasingly demanding in terms of transparency.
C14 analysis can detect any form of adulteration in your cosmetic products. By measuring carbon-14 content, this scientific method detects the addition of synthetic substances or the use of ingredients of dubious origin. This technique protects you from the risk of fraud and ensures the authenticity of your cosmetics.
Stable isotope analysis (carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen) identifies adulterations by biosynthetic materials thanks to a distinct isotopic signature, while also providing information on the botanical and geographical origin of the ingredients.
Carbon 14 analysis enables you to trace the exact origin of the raw materials used in your cosmetic products, ensuring complete transparency of your supply chain. This precision is essential to meet consumer expectations for clear information on the origin and ecological impact of ingredients.
What's more, this traceability enables you to differentiate your products in a market where transparency and environmental responsibility are increasingly valued.
