BIG WIPES™ out-perform other products in cleaning power, convenience and most importantly, compliance and health & safety.
Sadly there are wet wipes on the market that describe themselves as hand wipes, yet do not comply with the latest amendments of the relevant standards. This lack of compliance can therefore put you and your staff at potential risk. Big Wipes, on the other hand, does things differently. We invest in continual advice, review and verification from professional bodies. Consequently, our Big Wipes products remain both legal and safe as the regulations evolve.
We insist on the following tests to be undergone on all our wipes:
BIG WIPES COMPLIANCE WITH DERMATOLOGICAL TESTING
We regularly and rigorously test our products on volunteers. Independent professional dermatologists carry out these dermatology tests on a cross-section of people. After 48 hours of a single exposure to Big Wipes, zero levels of reaction or irritation were experienced across the entire volunteer group. In addition, we are proud to say that Big Wipes does not test on animals.
In stark contrast, some competitors who make dermatology claims, often attempt to rely on inadequate replica tests on animals. Similarly, they claim unsubstantiated comparative testing against competitors’ products that only demonstrates that their products are “less irritating” than others.
SAFETY ASSESSMENT – COMPLIANCE WITH EU REGULATION (EC) NO 1223/2009 – COSMETIC PRODUCTS
This regulation protects consumers and makes sure that all cosmetic products on the European market are safe. It requires cosmetics to cause no damage to human health when applied under normal or reasonably foreseeable conditions of use.
Big Wipes are designed and classified as a cosmetic product and fully comply with the EU Cosmetic Regulation 1223/2009, ensuring that all our products placed on the European market meet the required safety and regulatory standards. Each Big Wipes product undergoes a rigorous safety assessment conducted by a qualified safety assessor with relevant expertise. These assessments are reviewed and updated regularly in response to new scientific data or regulatory amendments.
‘The formulation BIG WIPES is harmless to health, in light of the general toxicological profile and of the ingredients, chemical structure and the degree of exposure in compliance with the warnings and conditions of use under normal and foreseeable purpose of use.’
