The introduction of ISO 22716 pioneers a globally recognised quality and safety standard for cosmetic products. An increasing number of cosmetics organisations are implementing ISO 22716 to support their compliance with the new European cosmetics regulations which are due to come into effect in July 2013.
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) published ISO 22716 to deal with all aspects of the supply chain of cosmetic products, from the early delivery of raw materials and components until the shipment of the final product to the consumer.
As a business improvement tool ISO 22716 is complementary to ISO 9001 and can be used as a vehicle to drive continuous improvement.
The guidelines provide cosmetics organisations with a framework to manage the key aspects of business operations including human, technical, and administrative that affect the quality and safety of products.
One of the highlights of 2012 for Blackmores was getting an invitation to collect a national environmental award at the Houses of Parliament.
The Green Apple Environment Awards were launched in 1994 by The Green Organisation and have become well established as one of the most popular environmental campaigns in the world. The awards are well established as one of the major environmental recognition schemes, both in the UK and Internationally. The Green Apple Awards campaign is run by The Green Organisation, an independent, non-political, non-profit organisation that recognises, rewards and promotes environmental best practice around the world.
Unbeknown to us, we had been nominated for the awards as a result of winning some regional environmental awards in 2011. So we were delighted to accept the award in November and also received a tour of the House of Commons!
Blackmores was also very proud to be nominated once again as a finalist for the Hertfordshire Green Business Awards for ‘Best Environmental Project of the Year’.
