Guidelines on technical definitions and criteria for natural and organic cosmetic ingredients and products - Part 1: Definitions for ingredients
ISO 16128-1:2016 provides guidelines on definitions for natural and organic cosmetic ingredients. In addition to natural and organic ingredients, other ingredient categories which may be necessary for natural and organic product development are defined with associated restrictions. ISO 16128 does not address product communication (e.g. claims and labelling), human safety, environmental safety and socio-economic considerations (e.g. fair trade), and the characteristics of packaging materials or regulatory requirements applicable for cosmetics.
ISO 16128-1:2016 - Guidelines on technical definitions and criteria for natural and organic cosmetic ingredients and products (Part 1: Definitions for ingredients) provides a common, cosmetic‑sector specific framework to define natural, organic, derived natural, derived organic, derived mineral and non‑natural ingredients. The standard clarifies ingredient categories, quantification approaches (e.g. molecular weight or renewable carbon), and solvent roles in ingredient manufacture. It is guidance (not a labelling or safety standard) intended to encourage consistent classification and innovation in cosmetic ingredient development.
