Products that also comply with strict European Cosmetics regulations.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s because all soap makers \u2013 both big and small \u2013 must observe the European Hygiene and Cosmetics Regulation. This is for the protection of anyone who uses your soap products. Your production methods, processes, ingredients, and soap products must \u2013 now and in the future \u2013 comply with this regulation. When you as a soap maker sign up to the affordable EU Soap Quality System (SQS), you are guaranteed to meet these requirements.<\/p>\n<p>The (online) SQS system handles everything on behalf of soap makers. It records all relevant data and saves it in the right place. The system also generates labels that contain all the required data. And you have access to more than a million (!) soap recipes and get priority when it comes to ordering, advice, and special offers. To sum it up, you \u2013 as an SQS soap maker \u2013 are in the safest of hands.<\/p>\n<p>But\u2026 what if you\u2019d prefer to handle all of this yourself?<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s an option of course, but it\u2019s extremely time-consuming and expensive for individual soap makers to arrange all processes in such a way that they comply with the regulation. Ensuring compliance with the legal conditions on your own will cost you thousands every year. And we aren\u2019t exaggerating. If you want to do it all yourself, you\u2019ll need the right certification. You\u2019ll also have to compile a product dossier and perform a risk analysis, in addition to making sure that your production area complies, that your production methods are correct and that your labels are accurate. All of this before making sure that each of your recipes creates products that contain allergen levels below the limits that apply to you.<\/p>\n<p>To do this, you\u2019ll have to find someone who is willing and qualified. This would generally be a pharmacologist or chemist. Such a person, who would usually charge between \u20ac1,000 and \u20ac1,500 per recipe, must then agree to be held accountable for your soap. Then hopefully, regulations for the ingredients that you use don\u2019t change. If they do, you\u2019ll have to modify your recipe and again call on your chemist for verification, after which he or she will simply charge you again. In addition, you\u2019ll be required to hand over your product data to the regulators, who may ask you tricky questions about your soap products, processes, and production area.<\/p>\n<p>So, that is why. That\u2019s why it\u2019s much smarter and cost-effective to become a member of the EU Soap Quality System. The quality system takes all the hassle off your hands so that you can focus on what you\u2019d rather do: make soap.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n[av_hr class='default' icon_select='yes'
