Technical documentation for plant extracts: TDS, SDS and CoA at a glance

The procurement of plant extracts for cosmetic or food applications requires a sound database. Technical documentation forms the foundation for formulation development, regulatory compliance and quality assurance. This article explains the three central document types: Technical Data Sheet (TDS), Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and Certificate of Analysis (CoA).

Technical Data Sheet: Product specifications for the formulation

The Technical Data Sheet - also known as the Product Data Sheet or Specification Sheet - contains all the information relevant to the formulation of a botanical extract. It documents the INCI declaration according to the international nomenclature, the Natural Origin Index according to ISO 16128 as well as information on COSMOS and NaTrue conformity.

The composition is specified with CAS numbers, EINECS numbers and concentration data. For liquid extracts based on glycerol, propylene glycol or pentylene glycol, there is a separate data sheet for each carrier. Powder extracts also contain information on the extract ratio, particle size and loss on drying.

The regulatory section includes the SVHC status according to the ECHA Candidate List, BSE/TSE conformity, GMO status and allergen information according to Annex III of the EU Cosmetics Regulation (EC) No. 1223/2009 - updated according to Regulation (EU) 2023/1545 on fragrance allergens.

Safety Data Sheet: Safety relevant information according to REACH

The safety data sheet complies with the requirements of REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 and follows the standardized 16-section format. It contains the classification according to CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, first aid measures, information on handling and storage as well as toxicological and ecotoxicological data.

Cosmetic raw materials from natural sources are often not classified as hazardous substances. The SDS documents this accordingly and provides information on personal protective equipment, storage conditions according to TRGS 510 and transport regulations according to ADR, IMDG and IATA.

In contrast to the product-specific TDS, an SDS can cover several product variants, provided they are identical in terms of safety - for example, all carrier variants of an extract.

Certificate of Analysis: Batch-specific quality documentation

The certificate of analysis documents the actual test results of the delivered batch. It contains the batch number, the production and best-before date as well as the results of the organoleptic, chemical-physical and microbiological tests.

Typical parameters include pH value, relative density, refractive index and microbiological testing for total plate count (TAMC), yeasts and molds (TYMC) and the absence of pathogenic germs. The release note confirms conformity with the specification by the quality control department.

The batch-specific documentation is a prerequisite for the creation of safety assessments (Cosmetic Product Safety Report) and traceability within the scope of audits.

Documentation access at CONIUNCTA

Registered customers have access to TDS and SDS via the "Technical Documentation" tab on each product page. The Certificate of Analysis is provided with the delivery after purchase. For specific requirements, please contact the Regulatory Affairs department at qm-external@coniuncta.com.

ANALYSUS by CONIUNCTA®: Cloud-Plattform für Analysenzertifikate (CoA)

ANALYSUS by CONIUNCTA®: Cloud platform for certificates of analysis (CoA)

Feb 9, 2026

ANALYSUS: Cloud platform for professional certificates of analysis Creating certificates of analysis is a recurring task for every quality department in the cosmetics and food industry. Nevertheless, in many companies this process is still based on Excel templates, manual data entry and inconsistent formats. ANALYSUS is CONIUNCTA® 's answer to this problem: a cloud platform that generates EU-compliant Certificates of Analysis (CoA) in minutes instead of hours. What ANALYSUS solves Anyone who regularly creates certificates of analysis knows the weaknesses of manual processes: Typos in specifications, outdated test method references, missing unit specifications and format breaks between different product lines. Each of these sources of error can become a problem during audits or customer complaints. ANALYSUS eliminates these risks through a structured system with predefined test standards, automatic parameter management and consistent document structure. The platform ensures that every certificate generated complies with regulatory requirements without the user having to manually look up standard numbers or method names. Range of functions ANALYSUS covers the entire certificate creation workflow. Products are created once with their specifications. The actual test results are entered for each batch. The platform automatically compares the results with the stored specifications and generates a complete, print-ready certificate of analysis. Over 16 EU test standards are preconfigured. These include physico-chemical parameters such as pH value, relative density, viscosity, refractive index and water activity as well as microbiological parameters such as total plate count (TAMC), yeasts and molds (TYMC) and the absence of specified pathogens. Each parameter is stored with the correct DIN, ISO or Ph. Eur. method reference. The PDF export generates documents with company branding, complete batch details, tabular presentation of results including specification limits and a release note. The certificates can be sent directly from the platform by email to customers or internal stakeholders. Bilingual documentation International business relationships require documentation in the customer's respective business language. ANALYSUS generates certificates of analysis in either German or English. Parameter designations, method references and evaluation texts are automatically output in the selected language without the need for a separate translation. Compliance according to European standards The document structure of ANALYSUS is based on the requirements of Regulation (EC) No. 1223/2009 for cosmetic products and relevant food regulations. Test methods reference current DIN and ISO standards as well as monographs of the European Pharmacopoeia. The consistent use of correct method names and units ensures that certificates meet the expectations of auditors, authorities and international customers. Target groups ANALYSUS is aimed at contract manufacturers who hand over a CoA to their clients with every batch, internal QA/QC teams with their own production, independent testing laboratories and raw material suppliers who provide batch-specific quality documentation. The platform scales from single users to teams with multiple product lines. Availability and prices ANALYSUS is available immediately at analysus.coniuncta.tech. The free Free plan includes up to 5 certificates per month and one product. The Starter plan for 49 €/month offers unlimited CoAs, up to 25 products, bilingual export and e-mail delivery. The Professional plan for 149 €/month also includes custom branding, API access and priority support. Registration does not require a credit card.
