Healthcare and Beauty Supply Chain Strategies
The cosmetic directive 76/768/CEE is in the process of being transformed into a new European Regulation, which will be applicable in each member state.
This new regulation forces the application of GMPs (Good Manufacturing Practices) according to NF EN ISO 22716 for each production site. Compliance with this regulation will help you to reduce your "non-quality" costs and returned goods, avoid recalls and optimise your supply chain.
In parallel to this, you must also make sure that your suppliers of raw materials, packaging components and point-of-sale articles respect the EU REACH Regulations.
