We provide ground-up development of cosmetic, household and food products as well as troubleshooting and improvement of existing formulations. All in accordance with any relevant territory regulations. Working from our leading edge lab facilities, our role is to help you to turn your product ideas into a ready- to-manufacture reality.

This will mean different things to the various clients we partner with. Full support would involve us taking your initial concept or idea and developing a formulation from the ground up to meet your brief. We have experience with a wide range of cosmetic and household products, including sun skincare, hair care, cleaning solutions, candles, fragrances, and supplements. We are capable of working with specialist formulations suitable for infant skin, vegans, or for application to sensitive areas such as the eyes. There truly is no substitute for this wealth of knowledge when it comes to making your product consumer-ready.

What if you already have a product in hand? We can help you improve it. Our talented team can suggest improvements and modifications to your existing formulation to enhance its quality and ensure it meets consumer requirements or is more likely to pass regulatory scrutiny. This is a vital part of the development process that should never be overlooked.

We’ll also be able to conduct the legally required stability testing, as well as compatibility testing. Together, this suite of tests will ensure that your product meets the regulatory demands of the market you’re targeting, as well as ensuring that your packaging is durable enough for storage and shelf life.

If you’re concerned about whether your product will scale up in the manufacturing process, our experts can provide advice, set up a pilot, and perform specification tests to give you confidence.
