Discovery (1-2 weeks)

During this phase, several crucial steps are undertaken to ensure a smooth product development process. First, a confidentiality agreement is established to protect sensitive information. Next, a product development agreement is signed, outlining the terms and responsibilities of all parties involved. A comprehensive product development brief is then created, detailing the project requirements. If necessary, discussions are held to confirm the brief and address any questions. Finally, you may send example products and samples of packaging you pan to use  (if applicable), to guide the development process effectively.

Material Sourcing (2-6 weeks)

While we carry an extensive supply of raw materials, we may need to begin by sourcing the necessary raw materials and technical information tailored to your development needs. Please allow 2-6 weeks for these materials to arrive. If you already have specific raw materials related to your project, we encourage you to send them our way. Please note that any materials procured your behalf will be charged at cost price, including delivery, if payment to the supplier is required.

Sample Development (2-4 weeks)

To ensure a smooth sample development process, we will begin by creating initial samples based on your. Once these samples are ready, we will promptly send them to you for evaluation. We kindly ask that you provide detailed feedback on any changes required, as this will help us refine the samples to better meet expectations. Timely and precise feedback is crucial for this step to move forward efficiently. The final sample formula must be approved in writing before proceeding. If you are only utilizing our formulation service, this concludes the process.

Safety and Stability Testing (6-12 weeks)

In the process of ensuring product quality and safety, key actions occur simultaneously. Preservative efficacy testing is performed to ensure the product maintains its integrity against microbial contamination. Additionally, accelerated stability testing is performed to evaluate the product's performance under extreme conditions, alongside real-time stability testing to monitor its performance over the intended shelf life. A label compliance check is conducted to verify that all information meets regulatory standards. If the product is to carry any claims relevant evidence is collected to substantiate product claims.

Bulk Material Purchase (2-6 weeks)

Sourcing bulk raw materials from suppliers is a crucial aspect of our operations, ensuring we maintain a steady supply for production. We work closely with our trusted suppliers to high-quality materials, although delivery times vary significantly, sometimes taking up to six weeks. This variability is influenced by factors such as supplier capacity and. Our commitment to transparency means we keep our clients informed about expected delivery timelines to ensure smooth operations.

Production (2-6-weeks)

The production process begins with careful preparation and organization of materials. Once everything is in place, the ingredients are mixed, bottles are filled with the product, ensuring each one meets quality standards. After filling, the products are packed into their final packaging, ready for distribution. To guarantee the highest quality, the products undergo a short quarantine period for quality assurance before being released to you.
