TESTING & VALIDATION

Built on Evidence

Forest Lab is research-driven, not marketing-driven. We validate our formulations through independent laboratory testing and standards-based evaluation to ensure every claim is measurable and credible. Our focus is on transparency, performance, and scientifically proven results, not unverified claims.

Backed By Research

Internal Quality Control
Every Forest Lab product begins with strict internal quality control. Each batch is checked for consistency and measurable quality benchmarks before it is cleared for bottling. Our in-house laboratory verifies critical parameters that influence performance and stability. This internal testing ensures that the product leaving our facility consistently matches the quality specifications we commit to.

Research-Led Formulation Development
Our formulations are not off-the-shelf blends. They are the result of extensive research, controlled trials, and iterative refinement. A formulation is never finalized based on product performance alone. It must demonstrate efficacy through independent third-party laboratory evaluation. Only after passing external validation do we approve a formulation for market release. This layered approach ensures that performance claims are supported by verified data and tested under recognized scientific protocols.

Standards-Based Performance Testing
Forest Lab products are evaluated using internationally recognized cleaning and microbiological standards. Germ-kill efficacy is validated under EN 1276, a European benchmark for bactericidal performance. Category-specific performance is assessed under relevant Indian Standards including IS 6047 (dishwash liquids), IS 14364 (floor cleaners), IS 4955 (laundry detergents), and IS 7983 (toilet cleaners).

Verified Ingredient Safety
Claims regarding the absence of parabens, phthalates, SLS, and other restricted substances are not marketing statements. They are substantiated through laboratory screening and chemical analysis. Each formulation undergoes targeted testing to confirm ingredient safety and regulatory compliance. This verification process ensures that exclusions are validated with the same rigor as performance testing, reinforcing credibility in every public claim we make.

Beyond Laboratory Testing
We extend our validation process beyond standard lab evaluation. Select formulations undergo clinical testing to assess real-world interaction and safety. This additional layer of testing reflects our commitment to accountability and product integrity. For us, testing is not a checkpoint. It is an ongoing framework that guides formulation, manufacturing, and communication.
