PA Rating
The PA rating is a measure of a sun protection product's ability to protect against UVA radiation, which can cause premature skin aging.
Our clinical testing service uses the JCIA PA rating method to determine a product's ability to protect against UVA radiation. The labeling of a product is determined by the PA rating, with designations of PA+, PA++, PA+++, or PA++++ indicating increasing levels of UVA protection.
By providing accurate PA rating information, cosmetic companies can assure consumers of their products' effectiveness in protecting against UVA radiation. This reliable, scientific evidence allows consumers to make informed decisions when choosing sun protection products, and helps cosmetic companies to market their products effectively.
Our testing service provides valuable information to ensure that cosmetic companies can produce sun protection products that meet the highest standards of efficacy and safety.
