FDA-Compliant, ISO 22716 GMP & Leaping Bunny Cruelty-Free Certified Private Label Sunscreen Manufacturer
FDA Compliance: Meeting the Highest U.S. Safety & Effectiveness Standards
In the United States, sunscreens are regulated as over-the-counter (OTC) drugs, not ordinary cosmetics. This means every one of our products must comply with the FDA’s OTC Sunscreen Monograph (M020) — the legal “deemed final order” established under the CARES Act and supported by the 2011 Labeling and Effectiveness Testing rule.
What this means for you:
- Only FDA-permitted active ingredients (including zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, plus others currently allowed under the monograph) are used in concentrations proven safe and effective.
- Every SPF claim is validated through in-vivo SPF testing and in-vitro broad-spectrum testing.
- Labeling follows strict FDA rules: accurate SPF, “Broad Spectrum” protection against UVA/UVB, water-resistance claims backed by 40- or 80-minute testing, and clear usage directions.
- Ongoing monitoring ensures we stay aligned with FDA updates, including the December 2025 proposal to expand the monograph with new ingredients like bemotrizinol.
Why it matters for your purchase:
You’re not just buying sunscreen — you’re buying clinically tested protection that meets the same rigorous drug standards as medicines in your cabinet. Shoppers searching “FDA-approved sunscreen” can rest easy knowing our formulas are fully compliant, not merely “inspired by” regulations.
ISO 22716 Certification
We are proud to be ISO 22716:2007 certified — the internationally recognized standard specifically for cosmetics Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). This certification covers every step of production, from raw-material sourcing and formulation to testing, storage, and shipment.
Key benefits built into our process:
- Consistent batch-to-batch quality and purity
- Strict hygiene, contamination prevention, and traceability protocols
- Trained personnel and validated equipment in audited facilities
- Full documentation so regulators and customers can verify compliance
ISO 22716 is the same standard required (or strongly recommended) by the European Union and adopted globally. When you see our ISO certification badge, you know the product inside the bottle was made under the same controls pharmaceutical companies use.
Cruelty-Free Certification: Ethical Protection You Can Feel Good About
We are independently certified cruelty-free by the Leaping Bunny Program (administered by Cruelty Free International) — the gold-standard certification that goes beyond self-declaration. Unlike some lists, Leaping Bunny requires ongoing audits of our facilities and suppliers to confirm zero animal testing anywhere in our supply chain, now or in the future.
What this means for conscious shoppers:
- No animal testing on ingredients, formulations, or finished products
- Vegan formulas available across our mineral and hybrid lines
- Full transparency — we publish our policy and welcome verification requests
If you’re searching “cruelty-free sunscreen,” our Leaping Bunny logo is your guarantee that ethical values and superior sun protection go hand in hand.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does FDA compliance actually mean for sunscreen?
It means our formulas use only FDA-permitted active ingredients, undergo required effectiveness testing, and follow strict labeling rules for SPF, broad-spectrum protection, and water resistance. You’re buying clinically validated protection that meets drug-level safety standards.

What does ISO 22716 certification guarantee?

Are your sunscreens cruelty-free?
Yes. We are independently certified cruelty-free by the Leaping Bunny Program, with no animal testing anywhere in our supply chain and regular third-party audits.
What makes Leaping Bunny certification stricter than other cruelty-free claims?
Leaping Bunny requires ongoing facility audits of both our company and suppliers, annual renewal, and a complete ban on animal testing for ingredients and finished products. It goes far beyond self-declared lists.

Yes. FDA-compliant mineral formulas combined with ISO-controlled manufacturing and cruelty-free standards make our products ideal for sensitive skin — many customers with allergies or concerns choose us for exactly this reason.
How do I request certification documents for my brand’s compliance audit?
Simply contact our team after purchase. We provide digital copies of our ISO 22716 certificate, Leaping Bunny verification letter, FDA compliance summary, and batch-specific CoAs within 24 hours. Many of our brand partners use these files directly in their own regulatory submissions.
What happens if sunscreen regulations change?
We monitor FDA, EU, and global updates daily. Our December 2025 bemotrizinol inclusion is already incorporated into new formulations. Clients receive proactive notifications and reformulation support at no extra charge — keeping your products compliant without downtime.
Can these certifications help me sell my private-label sunscreen internationally?
Yes. ISO 22716 is recognized or required in the EU, Canada, Australia, and many Asian markets. Combined with FDA compliance and cruelty-free status, our certifications accelerate approvals and give retailers confidence in your brand.
