For cosmetic manufacturers, contract fillers and brands that make in-house
Retailers and brand partners increasingly ask for proof of good manufacturing practice. We get your quality system ready for ISO 22716 and for the audit that comes with it.
Who this is for
- Contract manufacturers and fillers serving beauty brands
- Brands that make products in their own facility
- Brands that need to qualify and audit their suppliers
The problem it solves
ISO 22716 is the international guideline for cosmetic good manufacturing practice. MoCRA directs FDA to set cosmetic GMP regulations, and as of early 2026 FDA had not issued final rules. Many retailers already expect GMP evidence from suppliers.
Most small and mid-size facilities have pieces of a quality system but gaps in documentation, training records, deviations and supplier controls. Those gaps show up first in a retailer audit or an inspection.
What you receive
- Gap assessment report against ISO 22716, with a prioritized fix list
- SOPs and records: batch records, cleaning, labeling, storage, complaints and recalls
- Team training with attendance and competency records that hold up in an audit
- Internal audit or mock inspection with written findings
- CAPA and deviation process that closes issues instead of repeating them
- Supplier controls: qualification, approval and ongoing monitoring
How an engagement works
- Free intro call. Fifteen minutes to learn about your facility, products and customers.
- Assess. An on-site or remote gap assessment against ISO 22716.
- Build. We write or fix SOPs and records, and train your team.
- Stay ready. Internal audits and support before customer or certification audits.
Questions manufacturers ask
Is ISO 22716 certification required in the US?
Not by law today. Many retailers and brand customers ask for it, and it's a strong foundation for the GMP rules FDA is directed to set under MoCRA.
Can you certify us?
No. Certification comes from an accredited certification body. We prepare you so the audit goes smoothly.
We're a small facility. Is this overkill?
We scale the system to your size. A five-person operation needs clear, short procedures, not a binder no one reads.
