Cosmetics GMP to ISO 22716
GMP-compliant manufacturing for cosmetics – we audit laboratories and production sites, fully remotely, through to GMP certification.
Good Manufacturing Practice for cosmetics
ISO 22716 is the internationally recognised GMP standard developed specifically for cosmetic products. It describes how manufacturing, control, storage and shipping are to be organised so that product quality is reproducibly assured.
Makrolife is authorised to audit both laboratories and production sites to cosmetics GMP – and subsequently issues a certificate confirming GMP-compliant manufacturing.
- GMP audits for laboratories and production sites
- Recognised standard ISO 22716 for cosmetics
- GMP certificate following a successful audit
Audit possible entirely remotely
No travel, no travel costs and no long scheduling lead times: the entire GMP audit can be carried out fully remotely. You present your manufacturing by video and in a live session – we review, document and assess.
This lets you obtain proof of GMP-compliant production faster, more flexibly and more cost-effectively – regardless of location and without interrupting your operations.
- No travel, no travel costs
- Flexible scheduling, fast start
- Video documentation plus live session
Your path to the GMP certificate
In six transparent steps – fully feasible remotely.
Initial consultation & exchange
We get to know your product, your manufacturing and your goals, and clarify the scope of the GMP audit.
Instruction & audit plan
You receive clear guidance along with a structured audit plan covering all checkpoints and requirements.
Makrolife prepares everything
We fully prepare the scope of testing, checklists and documents so that the audit runs smoothly.
Video of the manufacturing process
You record a complete video of your entire manufacturing process – from raw material to filling.
Live audit of the manufacturing process
In the live session we review the complete manufacturing process remotely, ask follow-up questions and document the findings.
GMP certificate & certification
Following a successful audit, you receive your GMP certificate, i.e. the certificate of GMP-compliant manufacturing.
What is examined in the GMP audit
ISO 22716 covers all quality-relevant areas of cosmetics manufacturing.
Personnel
Qualification, training and hygiene of staff, as well as clearly defined responsibilities.
Premises
Design, cleaning and segregation of production areas to prevent contamination.
Equipment
Suitability, maintenance, calibration and cleaning of the systems and devices in use.
Raw materials
Goods receipt, identity testing, release and traceability of starting materials.
Production
Reproducible manufacturing steps, in-process controls and correct labelling.
Storage
Proper storage conditions, inventory management and protection of raw and finished goods.
Documentation
SOPs, batch records and complete evidence for audit-ready quality assurance.
There are many GMPs – we audit the right one
Not all GMP is the same: medicinal products, medical devices, food and cosmetics are each governed by their own sets of rules. For cosmetic products, ISO 22716 is the authoritative, internationally recognised standard.
We audit exclusively to the cosmetic GMP standard applicable to your product – so that your proof of compliance is technically correct, robust and relevant for market access.
- Cosmetics GMP to ISO 22716
- Clear distinction from other GMP frameworks
- Relevant proof of compliance for market access
