NSF Guideline 527
Building on its decades of experience in the certification of dietary supplements, NSF developed Guideline 527 to offer its expertise in mitigating risk, minimizing liability, differentiating products from competitors, and improving trust among customers to the personal care industry.
Launched in 2023, NSF 527 is a prestigious guideline designed to bolster the integrity of the cosmetics and personal care industry by providing a complete program that includes standardized definitions and criteria, label review, formulation requirements, ingredient identity, testing criteria, product purity and physical characterization and Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP)-compliance with NSF/ANSI 455-3 and/or NSF/ANSI 455-4.
As consumers increasingly demand greater transparency and accountability from personal care brands, it has become more important than ever for manufacturers and suppliers to demonstrate their products are safe, effective, and meet consumer expectations.
NSF Certified for Sport®
NSF Certified for Sport® certifies dietary supplements, functional foods, cosmetics and personal care products to be free from substances banned by major sporting organizations. It helps athletes, dietitians, coaches and consumers make more informed decisions when choosing sports supplements to reduce their risk of doping sanctions.
NSF screens for over 295+ substances, across all classes, including steroids, SARMs, stimulants, beta-agonists, diuretics, growth hormone releasing agents and hormone metabolic modulators. Products Certified for Sport® must also be certified to either NSF/ANSI 173, NSF 229 or NSF 527 to ensure their contents match their claims.
Certified for Sport® is the only independent, third-party certification program recognized by the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA), Major League Baseball (MLB), the National Hockey League (NHL) and the Canadian Football League (CFL). Certified for Sport® is also recommended by the NFL, NBA, PGA, LPGA, UFC, CCES, CPSDA, iNADO, Ironman, NASCAR, Taylor Hooton Foundation and other organizations that seek to mitigate the risks of contaminated dietary supplements, functional foods, cosmetics and personal care products.
NSF certifications ensure consumers have safer options for popular hemp and CBD products by certifying their products do not contain unacceptable levels of contaminants, including those specific to hemp, like THC and solvents. Certification also validates label claims.
