1-4 Dioxane Testing in Raw Materials and Personal Care Products

Detection and Analysis of Dioxane in Consumer Products and other Materials
Intertek laboratories detect the presence of 1-4 Dioxane in consumer products, ingredients and raw materials. 1-4 Dioxane is a suspected carcinogen and is a by-product that occurs during the production of some raw materials. Intertek laboratories screen products and raw materials for the presence of 1-4 Dioxane and other chemical compounds down to trace level quantification if required. 1-4 Dioxane is a restricted substance in the USA and the EU.

1,4-dioxane is a manufacturing by-product, not an additive, and as such is not required to be listed on the label as an ingredient. It is a petrochemical that readily mixes with water, and is used primarily as a solvent in cosmetics, deodorants, and detergent preparations.

Intertek 1-4 Dioxane analytical expertise includes:
  • Trace analysis below 10ppm utilising Headspace GC-MS instrumentation
  • Screening for the presence of 1,4 Dioxane
  • Dioxane detection and analysis is applied to both raw materials and finished products
