Documentation & CoA

The paperwork that comes with a material, what it covers, and what it deliberately does not.

Supplied with every order

VEGAN, HALAL AND KOSHER DECLARATIONS WHE
vegan, halal and kosher declarations where the supply chain supports them.

On request

Allergen, GMO and origin statements, and vegan, halal and kosher declarations where the material and its supply chain support them. Ask against the specific grade — a declaration that holds for one supplier's material does not transfer to another's.

What a CoA is and is not

A Certificate of Analysis reports the tested values for the batch you received. It is not a specification and not a safety assessment. Where an entry in the Ingredient Dictionary gives a use level or a pH window, the CoA for your batch is what governs.

Everything on this page is derived from the MakeYourSkin catalogue and from supplier literature. It is a starting point for your own development work, not a specification. Confirm every figure against the technical data sheet and Certificate of Analysis for the grade and batch you buy.
