In production, The Wolff Group maintains rigorous control of cosmetics ingredients at goods-in, during processing, and in final quality checks. The official drying-oven method was the company's cosmetics moisture analysis test of choice in the past. However, the complex and error-prone nature of the method led laboratory managers to explore alternatives.

​Dr. Kurt Wolff and his team worked closely with METTLER TOLEDO method development support to ensure that their moisture analysis methods for various cosmetics ingredients were accurate and repeatable. Coupled with the HS153's flexible accessories for liquid samples, the collaboration produced a highly successful adoption of halogen moisture analysis. Technicians also learned how to successfully develop future cosmetics moisture analysis methods for new substances that may come into use.

The newly adopted methods using the HS153 exceeded the company's expectations. In addition to reducing errors for better accuracy, the time-to-result for everything from liquids to paste-like samples has been reduced from 3 hours to just 20 minutes. Lab technicians also appreciate how easy the HS153 is to use, as any lab technician can carry out moisture analyses with minimal training.

The enhanced productivity in cosmetic ingredient moisture analysis is helping Dr. Wolff Group cosmetics accurately perform moisture analyses in just minutes, leading to higher throughput, more consistent quality, and better profitability overall.​
