Cosmetic raw materials include surfactants, emollients, preservatives, fragrances, pigments, polymers, botanical extracts, acids, alkalis and functional additives. The SDS should identify the exact commercial grade, purity, carrier and supplied form.
The finished-product page is different: use the Cosmetics MSDS guide for a formulated cosmetic and the Plant Extract MSDS guide for botanical extracts.
What information is required for Cosmetic Raw Material MSDS Certificate?
- Chemical or INCI identity and commercial grade.
- CAS number and composition where applicable.

- Powder, liquid, paste, wax or dispersion form.
- pH, density, flash point and other relevant properties.
- Supplier SDS, TDS, CoA and available test evidence.
How do Raw material and finished cosmetic differ?
| Document subject | What it describes |
|---|---|
| Raw-material SDS | The supplied ingredient grade, including carrier and impurities. |
| Finished-cosmetic SDS | The complete product after all ingredients are combined. |
| Certificate of Analysis | Batch test results against agreed specifications. |
The Cosmetics Rules, 2020 published by CDSCO govern cosmetic manufacture, import and related compliance in India. An SDS does not establish that a raw material is approved for every cosmetic use or concentration.
What affects the hazard conclusion?
Purity, particle size, carrier solvent, concentration, pH and impurities can change the classification. The OSHA hazard criteria support evidence-based evaluation of health hazards rather than relying on the INCI name alone.
What should the SDS contain?
The official 16-section SDS format covers identity, hazards, ingredients, response measures, handling, properties, toxicology and other information.
How much does Cosmetic Raw Material MSDS Certificate cost?
| Requirement | Price |
|---|---|
| 1 certificate | ₹3,999 |

Different grades, carriers or purities may count as separate certificates.
