PERSONAL CARE & COSMETICS
INDUSTRY
Manufacturers of personal care and cosmetics are looking for innovations that allow them to better measure product efficacy and quality. Digital olfaction allows them to have a compact, objective and cost-effective solution for raw material and product characterization.
DIGITAL OLFACTION
CAN BE USED FOR
Reduce Cost
of Quality
- Assess the smell stability at each phase of production, including validation of finished product quality
- Ensure odor defects are not transferred from packaging materials to products
- Monitor the drift in time of the fragrance in formulas
Secure raw
material quality
- Verify the quality of raw materials compared to the perfume house’s database of scent references
- Provide objective olfaction data comparisons between suppliers
New
Product R&D
- Reduce development time by using olfaction data to characterize new formulations
- Provide objective data outside of traditional smell panels
