THE FUTURE OF SKIN TESTING
Labskin is the only commercially available lab-grown full thickness human skin model that naturally supports the skin’s microbiome.
– Real human skin equivalent
– Thousands of industry tests
– Meet ethical, regulatory and competitive standards
ABOUT US
THE GOLD STANDARD
Labskin is the gold standard when testing skin care, cosmetics, health care, drug delivery or wound care products. The Labskin test platform and protocols help maintain an optimum real-world environment that shows the positive or negative impact on skin’s natural microflora.
- Constructed from human keratinocyte and fibroblast cells
- Cells naturally produce the extracellular matrix.
- Labskin produces a vast array of proteins such as fibrinogen, collagen, anti-microbial peptides.
- We can populate Labskin with a bespoke consortia of microorganisms that represent the complex human microbiomes found across the varying environments of the human body.
- The ideal model for testing cosmetics and cosmeticeuticals, for substansiation of product claims.
OUR MISSION
WE ARE THE SKIN MICROBIOME SPECIALISTS
Our mission is to be the leading provider of reconstructive human skin equivalents and provide our clients with expert industry leading in house testing services.
DEVELOPED OVER 15 YEARS
PIONEERING AND ETHICAL
We have a skin model that’s been developed over 15 years, creating an ideal platform for clients to accelerate the creation of new and better products that are ethically tested, that are cost effective and that meet regulatory requirements.
A BODY OF WORK
CUSTOMER TESTS
Our skin models are used by researchers and industry professionals all over the world to test ingredients, compounds and develop new products.
In addition and with an eye on regulation and ethical imperatives, we have developed a broad range of services around our skin models that our scientists carry out in state-of-the-art labs, on behalf of and in partnership with, clients.
THE SKIN MICROBIOME
CONTINUOUS INVESTMENT
We invest heavily in our services; better science to improve our skin models; better automation leveraging advances in equipment; data analysis to better understand our skin models and the outcomes and insights from the tests we run on behalf of clients.
Labskin is an ideal 3D model to carry out microbiology experiments. Its large surface area enables easy measuring of physical quantities and protein analysis.

SERVICES AND DATA
SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
We merge science and the latest technologies to give our users – researchers, ingredient and claims managers, home and personal care developers, pharmaceutical companies, both large and small – access to multiple skin model tests, including but not limited to tests and experiments using the toxins, bacteria, viruses, pathogens, and fungi that populate the skin microflora.
The generated data can be used for analysis and curation to substantiate claims and populate PIFs as-well-as generating new discoveries and enhancements.
