Skin-friendly material

Skin-friendly material – visible for the consumer

It is not only cosmetics that come into direct contact with the skin. More and more products and materials used in everyday life also come into intensive contact with the skin. However, there are different requirements here than for cosmetics.
Ingredients of materials are tested in theory and in laboratory tests for freedom from harmful substances, sustainability or fair production and can be labeled accordingly.
At Dermatest GmbH, we go one step further and test materials for skin compatibility directly on humans. Only products that pass the test can confirm this with our independent “Skin-friendly material seal”.

Transparent benefits for your product

With our “Skin-friendly material seal”. we give all materials that come into contact with the skin the same attention as cosmetic products. The aim of our testing is to check their compatibility according to dermatological criteria. As part of our patch testing your product is tested for skin compatibility under intensified conditions. Products that have been tested in this way receive the “Skin-friendly material seal” after successful completion of the study.

Same testing method – two seal designs

In addition to the seal in the classic Dermatest design, our innovative Consumer Line seal can help you to inform and guide your customers and consumers through clarity and transparency. Contact our experts to find out about the possibilities of the new seal. Choose the seal that best suits you and your product.

Advantages of the seal

Our “Skin-friendly material seal” offers you the opportunity to advertise the safety and compatibility of products transparently and independently. At Dermatest, we use our expertise and many years of experience in testing cosmetic products on the skin to also evaluate materials with intensive skin contact under these aspects. The “Skin-friendly material seal” is therefore the first seal to prove that materials tested by us are tested under the same strict standard conditions as cosmetic products. This fulfills the desire of consumers to be able to recognize transparently and quickly whether products are safe for their health or not.

Individual testing of various materials to check their functionality

If you would like to obtain further soft claims regarding product properties or functionality in addition to compatibility, we can offer individual test subject studies. Here, products can be tested on the intended skin area according to the intended use by individually defined groups of test persons. Please do not hesitate to contact us, we will be happy to advise you personally and individually.

Your route to the seal of approval in 4 steps

You decide on an application study, define the consumer group of your product and send us the required sample quantities and product information. Then we can start directly with the internal risk analysis, the concrete study preparation and the test person recruitment.

We conduct the jointly planned application study for the use of the Dermatest® "skin-friendly material" seal - in one of our test centers. As always, our primary focus is to check for skin compatibility.

If your product successfully completes the testing with us, you will receive the study report on skin compatibility and possible evidence of efficacy from us upon completion of the study.

After successful testing and signing of the user agreement, you will receive permission from us to use the respective Dermatest® seal. In addition to the German version, we will also be happy to provide you with the Dermatest® seal in English.
