U.S. SERVICES

PRODUCT SAFETY

Our qualified experts evaluate your products and ingredients against the rigorous EU safety standard, as MoCRA doesn’t specify required tests or documentation to prove product safety. We can assist in creating a safety profile for your product by working with third-party testing labs, collecting and validating documentation from your manufacturers and working with toxicologists to draft a Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR) established in accordance with the European Cosmetics Regulation EC No. 1223/2009. We help provide economical solutions to help your business grow while ensuring you are placing safe, efficacious products on market.

Modernization of Cosmetic Regulation Act (MoCRA)

We provide a variety of services to assist our clients with MoCRA compliance efforts, including:

Facility FEI and Registration: All manufacturers of cosmetic products are now required to list their facilities as an FDA regulated establishment and receive an FEI number. Additionally, cosmetic manufacturers, depending on their business size, are also required to register their facility in the Cosmetics Direct portal. Let CCG help you navigate the complicated process.

U.S. Agent Services: For our international clients, CCG can act as your designated U.S. agent to assist with FDA internal policy compliance including FEI registration and Cosmetic Direct registration.

Cosmetic Product Listing: As a requirement of MoCRA, products must be listed 120 days post-marketing in the United States. Let CCG assist you in placing your products on market by listing your cosmetic products in Cosmetics Direct. We’ve helped hundreds of clients with this service, and our knowledgeable experts can help you make this process easy and painless.

Adverse Events: We’ll review recordkeeping procedures, design and implement adverse event receiving procedures and work closely with your customer service teams. CCG is familiar with Gorgias, Zendesk, Gladly and other customer experience services.

FDA Enforcement: We help ensure FDA compliance by evaluating your recall procedures, developing strategies that align with current FDA requirements and providing support during potential enforcement actions at your facility.

Safety: Our experts review your current formulations for compliance, develop strategic testing plans, collaborate with third-party testing facilities, create comprehensive Product Information Files (PIFs) and recommend effective strategies for new product development.

Good Manufacturing Practice Requirements: Through our partnership with a German auditing firm, we provide exclusive access to trained, certified auditors with over 30 years of experience. These experts conduct comprehensive audits of your record keeping and procedures, perform gap analyses against current ISO standards and assist in developing customized processes and procedures—all on a cost-effective, per-project basis.

We offer GMP and capability audits for your contract manufacturers. We can also conduct audits based on your company’s specific standards or help organize third-party retailer audits required by companies like Target and Walmart Responsible Sourcing
