IEC South Africa
South Africa is a booming market with a dynamic consumer and distribution network that opens up great opportunities for new entrants. South African regulatory requirements for cosmetics are in line with European regulations.
Created in 2004, IEC South Africa is located in Cape Town in dedicated premises of 400 m².
The main advantages of IEC South Africa are its ability to test products in advance of the coming European season and to be able to carry out tests on more specific panels (photo-damaged skins, phototypes I to VI).
IEC South Africa performs safety tests (patch tests, use tests under dermatological, pediatric or ophthalmological control (in particular sun products and products for sensitive skin), efficacy tests (anti-wrinkle, whitening, moisturizing effects, etc.) and consumer tests.
