Upload a full formulation
Import by CSV, SDS, or ingredient list. Every ingredient is evaluated together — master formulas link to their regional variants, so you build once and check each market underneath.
Every market at once
One formula checked simultaneously across EU, US (FDA/MoCRA), Canada, China, Japan, Korea, ASEAN, UK and more — a permitted / restricted / prohibited verdict per market.
Concentration-aware limits
Each ingredient's percentage is checked against the maximum permitted level per market — and it is application-type aware, so a rinse-off limit never fails a leave-on product.
Regulation changes → blast radius
Status is monitored daily. When a rule shifts, instantly see every formula and variant affected, in which markets, ranked by risk — no manual re-audit of your portfolio.
Your formulas never leave your control

What compliance teams say
Regulatory professionals across EU, North America, and Asia trust The Molecule Lab to cut research time dramatically.
“We used to spend entire days checking EU CosING and ASEAN annexes for every new formula. The Molecule Lab cut that to under a minute per substance. It genuinely changed how our team operates.”
Sarah K.
Regulatory Affairs Manager
Personal Care Group, EU
“Having GHS classification, SVHC status, and ECHA Candidate List all in one search panel is exactly what we needed. Before this, we had three different ECHA tools open simultaneously.”
Marco R.
Senior Formulation Scientist
Cosmetic Lab, Italy
“Canada Hotlist and FDA Prop 65 data in a single search? That's exactly what North American launches require. No other platform gives us both markets with this level of detail.”
