Dweck Data has one of the largest data bases in the world composed of :

1. Supplier brochures

2. Dweck Data files made up from retyping tracts from their library

3. Up-to-date scientific plant data from the 13 years of abstracts from the Medicinal and Aromatic Plant Journal (we are the only client who receives this electronically)

4. Our library consists of 650 volumes of books on medicinal plants, ethnobotanic / ethnopharmaceutical use of plants etc etc.

We work with clients to work from the brief to suggest materials that will fulfill the dream. We can supply not only folklore, history and all the background data, but then can supply the supplier brochures that will have the modern technical proof of effect. We normally suggest a whole raft of different materials to offer choice and allow the marketer to feel that they are in charge of the final product mix. All of this information is produced on a CD ROM with all the brochures hyperlinked to a spreadsheet.

Having written the brief, we will also help with the perfume brief and work with the perfumer to ensure that the final fragrance is exactly right for the guidelines we have determined for the project.

The formulator is then briefed and we supply them with all the data they require on another CD – all they have to do is order any new raw materials (to them) and put together the prototypes.

We advise on any formulation problems and help to ensure that the final product meets the specification.

The pack copy is drafted by the client and then Dweck Data ensure that it does not infringe or break many of the laws that surround cosmetic and toiletry products. We ensure that the ingredient labels are right, the PAO is in place, weights and E marks are correct and that any cautions and legal requirements are in place on the packaging.

The law requires a PIP (Product Information pack) be in place and part of that package requires a safety assessment which we will produce as a certificate of conformance.
