Packaging Services
Professional packaging manufacturing services complete your product development journey by transforming finished formulations into market-ready cosmetic products. Labs on our platform partner with specialized packaging manufacturers to handle everything from container selection to final assembly, ensuring your beauty products meet retail standards and regulatory requirements.
Container Selection and Compatibility Testing
Packaging labs test your formulations against different container materials to prevent chemical reactions and product degradation. They run compatibility studies that check how ingredients interact with glass, plastic, and metal packaging over time.
Common testing protocols include:
- Stability testing at various temperatures
- Chemical compatibility assessments
- Leak-proof seal verification
- UV protection evaluation for light-sensitive products
This process typically takes 2-4 weeks and helps you avoid costly product recalls or reformulations later.
Fill and Assembly Operations
Manufacturing partners handle filling, capping, and labeling of your products using equipment ranging from manual stations for small batches to high-speed automated lines for large volumes. They ensure consistent fill volumes and maintain clean production environments appropriate to your product type and target market.
Assembly services typically include:
- Product filling for various textures (liquids, creams, gels, powders)
- Closure application and seal integrity testing
- Label placement and batch identification
- Secondary packaging and kit assembly
- Quality control at each production stage
Equipment capabilities vary by facility, from artisanal hand-filling for luxury small-batch products to fully automated lines producing thousands of units per hour. Partners match their production methods to your volume needs, budget, and quality requirements.

Practical Applications of Packaging Services
Cosmetic brands rely on Packaging services to transform formulated products into market-ready items that meet regulatory standards and consumer expectations.
Primary Packaging Integration
Labs coordinate primary packaging during the manufacturing process, ensuring products fill correctly into bottles, tubes, jars, and compacts. This integration prevents contamination risks and maintains product integrity throughout the filling process.
Teams handle airless pumps for serums, dropper assemblies for oils, and specialized closures for powder products. The process includes compatibility testing between formulations and packaging materials to prevent chemical reactions or leaching. Packaging integration completion can vary depending on product complexity and container specifications.
Secondary Packaging and Labeling
Manufacturing services extend to secondary packaging, including carton assembly, label application, and shrink-wrapping for retail presentation. Labs apply regulatory-compliant labels with ingredient lists, batch codes, and expiration dates during the packaging phase.
This process includes quality control checkpoints for label placement accuracy and barcode verification for inventory tracking. Teams also handle insert placement for instruction cards or promotional materials.
