On December 1, 2024, “Technical specifications for dermal absorption and penetration promotion of cosmetics” (T/CEAC 068-2024) was officially implemented. As the core drafting unit of the physical permeation technology chapter of the standard, Chengdu CosmoBiotech Co., Ltd (hereinafter referred to as Cosmo Bio), by virtue of years of accumulation of technology in the field of physical permeation technology and in-depth research results, set up a “safe and efficient, scientific and standardized” for the industry, and promote China’s cosmetic transdermal technology to the international! The company has set up “safe, efficient, scientific and standardized” technical standards for the industry, and promoted China’s cosmetic transdermal technology to the international frontier!
1. Why is a “transdermal absorption” standard needed?
Traditional cosmetics often face the problem of “difficult to penetrate the active ingredients”, and transdermal absorption technology through physical, chemical and nano means, to help ingredients break through the skin barrier, directly to the action layer. However, the lack of standardization of the application of technology may lead to safety risks.
The formulation of “Technical specifications for dermal absorption and penetration promotion of cosmetics” clarifies for the first time the key contents of technical principles, specifications for the use of penetration promoters, and safety evaluation systems, providing the industry with guidance for the whole process from R&D to production. It provides guidance for the industry from R&D to production and ensures that the application of the technology is “both efficient and safe”.
2. Core contributions of COSMOBIOTECH
As the only enterprise focusing on the R&D and production of hydrolyzed sponges in the standard drafting unit, Cosmo Bio, based on many years of technical accumulation and in-depth research results, provides important support for the physical permeation technology of the standard – Physical permeation technology is mainly through the application of physical methods to change the structure of the stratum corneum so as to expand the permeation pathway, under the standard proposed: safety, effectiveness, compatibility, and durability. On the premise of the standard: safety, effectiveness, compatibility, durability, hydrolyzed sponges can form a large number of nano-micro-channels in the stratum corneum to deliver the active ingredients of cosmetics to the layers that can be absorbed and utilized by the skin (transparent, granular, spiny, basal layer).
3.The power of nature, empowering skincare product upgrades
Cosmo Bio is committed to the research of natural skin care ingredients, insisting on the use of high-quality freshwater sponges from the water system of the Western Sichuan Plateau as the raw materials for the production of hydrolysed sponges, which are processed under a strict production process to ensure that the products are natural and free of pollution.Since 2013, Cosmo Bio has been committed to researching hydrolysed sponges in the field of cosmetics, empowering global skincare brands to upgrade their products, while Cosmo Bio has also successfully developed more than 100 formulations based on hydrolysed sponges, many of which have achieved unanimous approval from customers in more than 45 countries and regions around the world.
4.Authoritative Recognition and Responsibility
Cosmo Bio has always been practicing the concept of “natural beauty, safety-oriented”.The participation in the group standard is not only a recognition of the company’s technical strength, but also highlights its social responsibility to promote the high-quality development of the industry.In the future, the company will continue to plough into transdermal absorption technology, and work with partners to bring consumers a more efficient and safer skincare experience!
