Organic cosmetics application: evidence to label decision

Decision and worked example

Example: The file includes accepted oil evidence, but three products use different formula versions and quantities. Give each formula a separate identity and link evidence to the correct material. Explain the calculation denominator and compare the label percentage with it. Submit manufacturing, packaging and change information. Resolve questions with records, then confirm product scope and signature use. Sharing one oil does not give every variant the same result; a source change can require new evidence and cannot silently inherit the old file.

Records for this purpose

• 1: Define ORGANIC target, products and authorised body.
• 2: Reconcile material evidence, recipe quantities and calculation.
• 3: Verify product scope, label percentage and signature permission.

Conditions and authority limits

Use COSMOS v4.2 and the labelling guide. Preparation support does not acquire decision authority; material certification and finished-product licensing differ. No positive result or fixed completion date is promised.

Kayra service role

Kayra may support scope definition, document preparation and assessment coordination within its contracted role. The programme owner’s rules and the selected body’s current authority, scope and decision responsibilities are checked separately. Preparation does not guarantee certification, mark permission, an audit rating or legal compliance.
