Quality certification

Guide to the implementation of the wig product quality certification system

  • Despite being an expensive product that comes into direct contact with the body, there is a proliferation of consumer distrust and damage disputes due to the absence of labeling, quality, and safety inspection systems.
  • The wig industry’s representative organization and accredited testing agency, KOTITI, has established quality and safety management standards for wig products and implemented a certification mark system for verified products!
  • Building consumer trust through legal and objective safety tests such as hazardous substance tests and labeling, differentiating from non-certified products, and establishing a protection device for sales outlets
  • Improving quality and fostering high-quality products (companies) and preventing consumer damage
