Research & Development
Formulation work that holds up in production
The R&D team develops formulas against real production constraints, so what you approve on the bench is what runs on the line.
R&D Directions
Four directions we develop within
Each direction is backed by documentation that travels with the formula into production.
Actives & Delivery
Selection and stabilisation of actives so the formula performs through shelf life.
Texture Engineering
Rheology work that tunes spreadability, absorption and after-feel to the brief.
Preservation & Safety
Preservation systems chosen for the format and reviewed against compatibility data.
Sun & Barrier Systems
UV filter and barrier formats developed with SPF and PA claims pending test results.
Development Flow
From concept to released sample
A repeatable sequence that keeps development measurable and reviewable.
Concept translation
The brief becomes target textures, actives and cost boundaries.
Bench prototyping
Small-scale trials explore and refine candidate formulas.
Compatibility testing
Formula and packaging are checked together before scale-up.
Sample release
Approved samples are issued with their supporting test data.
Testing & Validation
Checked before it scales
Formula and packaging are tested together before pilot production. Sun formats are developed so that SPF and PA testing can be arranged; any value is subject to actual test results.
- Stability and compatibility review
- Preservation system assessment
- Packaging interaction checks
- Sample release with supporting data
