MONAT® Global (MONAT), a multinational manufacturer and
distributor of premium hair care products, announces the results of
additional allergy tests from Allergisa, an internationally
renowned testing facility, on its products. Every MONAT formulation
has been safety tested over a six-week period on human volunteers*
in either 48-hour patch test or HRIPT (Human Repeat Insult Patch
Test) to confirm that all products are non-irritating,
hypoallergenic and dermatologically safe for their intended use on
all skin types.
On the 48-hour patch test, Allergisa found no signs of redness or irritation, and on the
HRIPT test no allergic reactions were
seen. Specifically, the conclusion of Allergisa’s test results
are:
- During the study, no subjects presented
skin clinical signs related to the product.
- The product did not induce a skin
primary irritation process in the study group.
- The product did not induce a skin
cumulative irritation process in the study group.
- The product did not induce a skin
sensitization process in the study group.
- The product was considered safe under
the study conditions.
- The claim “Dermatologically tested” can
be supported.
“Product safety is our top priority. We invest millions of
dollars in research and conduct thousands of tests each year to
ensure MONAT products meet the highest standards of quality, safety
and performance,” said Stuart MacMillan, President of MONAT Global.
“The test results from Allergisa provide additional, third-party
validation that MONAT premium hair care products are safe on all
skin-types for their intended cosmetic purpose.”
“When we began formulating our premium hair care products, we
tested everything. Our results from 2014 on REJUVENIQUE® found it
to be safe. In addition to our supplier-proven ingredients, we test
all products and formulations for safety and efficacy,” said Rayner
Urdaneta, CEO & Co-Founder, MONAT. “MONAT Global stands behind
our line of hair care products. We will continue to innovate and
create products to give consumers the best possible hair care.”
Allergisa is an independent testing laboratory founded in 1993
by Dr. André Vergnanini, a professor of dermatology at UNICAMP, in
partnership with pharmacists and Samuel Guerra Filho, an expert in
product development. A pioneer in its field, Allergisa started
performing safety tests and evolved into efficacy assessments.
Allergisa follows strict protocols that are standardized by
national and international resolutions or validated by the
strictest quality concepts.
In addition to the allergy tests by Allergisa, All MONAT
formulations use ingredients, in concentrations, that the Cosmetic
Ingredient Review (CIR), the FDA, Health Canada and the European
Commission consider “safe for their intended cosmetic purpose.”
