Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What is GRAS and why is it important for food ingredients?
GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) is an FDA designation for food ingredients considered safe by qualified experts. GRAS status allows ingredients to be used in food without requiring premarket approval as food additives, providing a faster pathway to market while ensuring safety.
What is a CPSR and when is it required?
A Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR) is mandatory under EU Regulation 1223/2009 for all cosmetic products marketed in the EU/UK. It provides scientific evidence that a product is safe for human use under normal conditions and must be prepared by a qualified safety assessor.
How long does the GRAS evaluation process take?
GRAS evaluation timelines vary: Self-Affirmed GRAS typically takes 6-9 months, while FDA GRAS notification can take 12-18 months including preparation and review time. The timeline depends on data availability and complexity of the ingredient.
