  • GSO Standards (e.g., GSO 1943:2021): As a key player in the Middle East, we are meticulously aligned with the Gulf Standardization Organization (GSO) requirements, which are mandatory for products sold in the GCC region. This includes detailed analysis for prohibited ingredients, heavy metals, and other critical parameters.
Our commitment to these international and regional benchmarks means your products are ready for market entry, minimizing delays and ensuring regulatory approval.
