In just one week, fra­gran­ce lea­ders, scien­tists, and regu­la­tors from across the world will con­ve­ne in Sin­ga­po­re for the IFRA Glo­bal Fra­gran­ce Sum­mit 2025, taking pla­ce on 15 – 16 Octo­ber at the Fair­mont Singapore.

IFRA scien­ce experts sha­red the latest scien­ce on human health, envi­ron­ment, and safety assessment

The IFRA Pre­si­dent, Ale­xan­der Mohr, PhD, together with IOFI Execu­ti­ve Direc­tor, offi­cially wel­co­med four more Chi­ne­se mem­bers as sig­na­to­ries to the IFRA-IOFI Sus­tai­na­bi­lity Char­ter during a cere­mony at the ESG forum of the CAFF­CI Annual Mee­ting. The new sig­na­to­ries are : Yinghai (Cangzhou) Aro­ma Che­mi­cal Com­pany Ltd.; Boton Fla­vors & Fra­gran­ces Co., Ltd.; Sina­ro­ma Tech (Jiao­zuo) Ltd.; and Hangzhou Gras­cent Co., Ltd. The cere­mony follo­wed the IFRA and IOFI execu­ti­ves’ pre­sen­ta­tion on the fra­gran­ce and fla­vours sus­tai­na­bi­lity charter’s fra­me­work and key out­co­mes outli­ned in the 3^rd IFRA-IOFI Sus­tai­na­bi­lity Report.Eight mem­bers of the fra­gran­ce and fla­vor (F&F)national asso­cia­tion in Chi­na, CAF­FIC, have joi­ned the Char­ter signatory’s com­mu­nity in 2025. This increa­sing num­ber reflects a gro­wing inter­est among Chi­ne­se F&F com­pa­nies in glo­bal sus­tai­na­bi­lity initia­ti­ves, reflec­ting their rising com­mit­ment to Envi­ron­men­tal, Social, and Gover­nan­ce (ESG) principles.

This work, con­duc­ted under the aus­pi­ces of IDEA (The Inter­na­tio­nal Dia­lo­gue for the Eva­lua­tion of Aller­gens), pre­sents an expan­ded Refe­ren­ce Che­mi­cal Potency List (RCPL) with 77 addi­tio­nal che­mi­cals. The exten­ded RCPL strengthens the eva­lua­tion of New Approach Metho­do­lo­gies for asses­sing skin sen­si­ti­sing potency.

Matthias Vey, Vice Pre­si­dent of Scien­ti­fic Affairs, IFRA, had the honour and plea­su­re to address IFRA UK mem­bers during the infor­ma­tion day on Sep­tem­ber 11, 2025.

We are deligh­ted to announ­ce that three new orga­ni­za­tions have endor­sed the IFRA-IOFI Sus­tai­na­bi­lity Char­ter. Recently, IFRA has wel­co­med two Sup­por­ting Mem­bers from India – Norex Fla­vours Pri­va­te Ltdx and Keva Fra­gran­ces, Fla­vours & Aro­ma Ingre­dients – along with Kao Che­mi­cals Euro­pe. Their com­mit­ment brings the total num­ber of sig­na­to­ries to 155.This miles­to­ne reflects the gro­wing momen­tum of our industry-wide effort. We warmly encou­ra­ge all IFRA and IOFI mem­bers to join this collec­ti­ve initia­ti­ve, dri­ving sus­tai­na­bi­lity across the fra­gran­ce and fla­vour sector.

Over the sum­mer, the Euro­pean Com­mis­sion laun­ched a public con­sul­ta­tion on the revi­sion of the EU Cos­me­tic Pro­ducts Regu­la­tion (CPR). The aim was to gather input from autho­ri­ties and sta­kehol­ders on whether the Regu­la­tion should be revi­sed in the coming years, loo­king at what has wor­ked well, whe­re impro­ve­ments may be nee­ded, and what areas should be prioritised.

The Inter­na­tio­nal Fra­gran­ce Asso­cia­tion (IFRA) was hono­red to be invi­ted to the recent gathe­ring of the Cham­ber of Cos­me­tics Industry of the Phi­lip­pi­nes (CCIP), which brought together more than 200 par­ti­ci­pants from across the beauty and well­ness sector.

The Inter­na­tio­nal Fra­gran­ce Asso­cia­tion (IFRA) is proud to mark a spe­cial pro­fes­sio­nal anni­ver­sary: 25 years sin­ce Vice Pre­si­dent of Scien­ti­fic Affairs Matthias Vey joi­ned the orga­ni­za­tion. His quar­ter-cen­tury of ser­vi­ce reflects a deep com­mit­ment to scien­ce, safety, and dia­lo­gue — hel­ping build IFRA into the glo­bally res­pec­ted autho­rity it is today.
