The Documentation Trail

The Documentation Trail: A Level of Transparency Unmatched in the Tattoo Industry

 

To comply with ISO 9001:2015 (Quality Management System) and ISO 22716 (Good Manufacturing Practices for Cosmetics), INTENZE must meticulously track, record, and verify every aspect of our ink production.  

 

Here’s what our documented quality system includes:  

 

1. Raw Material Sourcing & Testing  

  • Every pigment and ingredient used in INTENZE ink must be fully traceable, meaning we document the following:  
  • The supplier’s details and origin of raw materials.
  • The batch number and testing results are for purity and performance.  
  • Documentation ensuring the raw materials meet heavy metal and microbiological safety standards.
  • Documentation ensuring the raw materials meet heavy metal and microbial safety standards.

 

2. Production Process Control

  • Every batch of ink is manufactured in a world-class clean room, with controlled air quality and strict sanitation measures.
  • Each step of the production process is documented in real-time, including:
  • The exact formulation and mixing process ensures every bottle is consistent
  • .Temperature, humidity, and environmental controls to maintain ink stability.
  • Operator logs and equipment calibration records to ensure precision.

 

3. Batch Number Tracking & Full Traceability

 

  • Every bottle of INTENZE ink is labeled with a unique batch number, allowing us to:  
  • Trace the exact production date and facility location.  
  • Identify the specific raw materials used in that batch.
  • Provide complete Transparency in a rare recall or customer inquiry.  

 

4. Sterility & Contamination Prevention Logs  

 

Our clean room facility requires all personnel and materials to go through air showers before entering, reducing airborne contaminants.  

 

Every production surface, tool, and container is sanitized and recorded to ensure complete sterility.  

 

Microbiological testing is conducted regularly, with documented results, to confirm that our inks are free from harmful bacteria, mold, and contamination.  

 

5. Packaging, Storage, and Shipping Compliance

 

  • Every bottle of INTENZE ink is packaged in a sanitary, controlled environment* to prevent contamination before it reaches artists.
  • Packaging materials are tested to ensure they don’t leach chemicals or degrade ink stability.
  • Storage conditions are documented, and ideal temperatures and humidity are maintained to preserve ink quality.

6. Independent Audits & Ongoing Certification Compliance

 

  • ISO certification isn’t a one-time achievement. It requires ongoing compliance and external audits.  
  • INTENZE undergoes independent third-party inspections to ensure we continuously meet the following:  
  • ISO 9001:2015 standards for quality management and Consistency.  
  • ISO 22716 standards for cosmetic-grade Safety and hygiene.  
  • Any process adjustments or improvements are documented and reviewed, ensuring continuous innovation.  

 

Why This Sets INTENZE Apart From Every Other Tattoo Ink Company in the World

 

Most tattoo ink brands do not meet or attempt to achieve these certification levels* because of the extreme level of control, documentation, and investment required. No other tattoo color company in the world has accomplished —both ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 22716; INTENZE is paving the way for a safer, more responsible future for tattooing.
