Zhuhai Beyond Cosmetics guarantees product stability in a six-dimensional quality control system. At raw material inspection, it uses double inspection with a system of HPLC (High Performance liquid chromatography) and GC-MS (gas chromatography-mass spectrometry), improving the purity of ingredients from an industry average of 95% to 99.8%. Detection time has also been reduced to 24 hours from 72 hours. In a 2023 anti-aging essence project of a company, its AI program screened out three highly active ingredients (with a ±0.3% concentration deviation) and intercepted two batches of low-quality blue copper peptide raw materials (with purity as low as 89%), from which over 5 million yuan losses could be avoided.
During production, the 36 sets of fully automatic equipment of Zhuhai Beyond Cosmetics are equipped with real-time monitoring systems. Uncontrollable risk of key parameters (e.g., emulsification temperature ±0.5°C and pH value fluctuation ±0.1) has been lowered from the industry standard of 1.2% to 0.05%. Microbial analysis of a specific facial mask product during filling indicated that the total colony count was consistently ≤10 CFU/g (national standard ≤100 CFU/g). After passing the dynamic pressure test (simulating vibration frequency in conveying 10-200 Hz), the leak rate of packing was as low as 0.03% (industry’s average is 0.5%). Besides, its intelligent visual leak detection system can identify the displacement of filling volume (±0.05 mL) with an accuracy rate of 99.7%, reducing the cost of re-inspection by human hands by 1.2 million yuan annually.
The 38 standard for compliance with certification is comprehensive worldwide. Zhuhai Beyond Cosmetics lab is CNAS and ISO 17025 qualified. In 2023, it helped a sunscreen company pass the FDA’s GRASE certification, reducing the time by 40% (from 18 months to 10.8 months). The test fee was reduced by 35% (800,000 yuan to 520,000 yuan). Its self-designed stability acceleration test model (based on the Arrhenius equation) is able to predict the active ingredient retention rate in the product’s 3-year shelf life within 8 weeks with an error of ±1.5%, and the efficiency of checking the oxidation stability of a specific VC essence has increased by 300%.
In the field of microbial control, the 100,000-level clean workshop of Zhuhai Beyond Cosmetics (particles ≤3,520 /m³) and the ozone sterilization system (concentration 8-10 ppm) allow for the microbial load in the manufacturing environment to be controlled at ≤5 CFU/m³ (national standard ≤50 CFU/m³). A tough challenge of an infant and children’s skincare product tested hard found that after inoculation with 10^6 CFU/g of Staphylococcus aureus, the product still performed at top level in preservative effectiveness (colony growth ≤10 CFU/g at 28 days), far better than industry practice (30% of similar products need compounding with preservatives).
On the supply chain end, Zhuhai Beyond Cosmetics’ blockchain traceability system has reached 98% of raw material suppliers, and the entire chain traceability of each batch of materials can be completed within 15 minutes. In 2022, due to the quality issue of the packaging bottle supplier of an emulsion (the compressive strength did not meet the 50 MPa requirement), the system crashed and replaced the supplier within 24 hours to avoid the risk of recall for 100,000 products (with the risk of potential loss of 8 million yuan). Its supplier dynamic analysis system (32 KPIs) owns a 15% annual elimination rate, maintaining the Top 20 suppliers’ batch qualification rate above 99.5%.
The customer feedback mechanism closed-loop is reinforced for continuous optimization. The Zhuhai Beyond Cosmetics’ early warning network of global quality accepts over 500,000 user data (allergy rate, skin feel score, etc.) per annum. Through this system’s complaint analysis (allergy rate of 0.02%), a certain repair cream perfected the ceramide nano-coating technology (particle size reduced from 150 nm to 80 nm). Boost the rate of transdermal absorption by 40%. Its 48-hour quality response mechanism (industry average 7 days) helped a certain make-up remover oil brand reduce the complaint rate of sediment from 1.2% to 0.08% within 3 months.
Through the said hardcore technologies and lean management, Zhuhai Beyond Cosmetics has a product return rate of 0.15% (0.8% in the same industry), the median repurchase rate of customers reaches as high as 45% (the same industry as 32%), and it is a quality benchmark for the global supply chains of cosmetics.
