What we do

Everything your product needs, in one place.

Most brands stitch together a formulator, a filler, a designer and a photographer. We bring all six disciplines under one roof — so nothing gets lost between them.

Service 01

Product Formulation

Custom formulations that stand out, or a ready-to-go private label from our library — built on effective, sustainable ingredients to suit your brief and your budget.

Service 02

Manufacturing & Filling

Specialist equipment handles every texture — viscous creams, waxes and gels through to water-thin and oil products — filled quickly and accurately into any packaging.

Service 03

Graphic Design & Branding

Our in-house design team covers everything from logo design to product labels and packaging artwork — a cohesive identity that looks the part on shelf and online.

Service 04

Product Photography

A picture is worth a thousand words. Our photography packages — retouched by experts in Photoshop and Illustrator — help your brand stand out wherever it sells.

Service 05

Ecommerce Ready

We build eye-catching online stores that are easy to navigate, rich with graphics and ready for a range of payment gateways — because good UX turns into sales.

Service 06

Testing & Assurance

Round out development with preservative efficacy tests, microbiological testing, dermatological studies and stability testing — so your product ships with confidence.

A clear path from the first conversation to a finished product ready to sell — you stay in the loop at every stage.
