OEM Cosmetics Contract Manufacturing: Engineering Sustainable, Compliance-Ready & Scalable Personal Care Products

OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer): You provide the exact formulation recipe and detailed manufacturing instructions, and we handle raw material procurement, bulk compounding, quality control, filling, and packaging strictly to your custom specifications.

ODM (Original Design Manufacturer): You bring a conceptual brief, target consumer profile, or marketing positioning, and our in-house R&D team designs the entire product from scratch—including custom formulation, fragrance selection, stability testing, and packaging compatibility.

White Label: You choose from our portfolio of pre-formulated, market-proven cosmetic bases (such as white label sulfate-free shampoo or niacinamide serum), which are quickly customized with your branding, signature fragrance, and primary packaging for accelerated market entry.

Under the US FDA Modernization of Cosmetics Regulation Act (MoCRA), all facilities manufacturing cosmetics for distribution in the United States must complete mandatory facility registration and cosmetic product listings. HE Manufacturing maintains a registered facility with the US FDA. We provide complete batch manufacturing records, Certificate of Analysis (COA), safety substantiation data, and allergen declarations required by US Responsible Persons to maintain compliance and avoid border detention by US Customs and Border Protection.

We furnish complete regulatory dossiers required by your EU Responsible Person (RP) to assemble the Product Information File (PIF). This includes full quantitative formula disclosures under non-disclosure agreements, raw material safety data sheets (MSDS/SDS), IFRA fragrance compliance certificates, 26-allergen breakdown reports, 12-week accelerated stability test results, preservative efficacy testing (PET challenge testing), and heavy metal/microbiological clearance reports.

French triple-milling (also known as French milling) involves passing cooked, dried soap noodles through a series of heavy, chilled stainless steel rollers three distinct times. This mechanical kneading homogenizes the soap mass, expels excess air and moisture, and thoroughly distributes essential oils and botanical additives throughout the matrix.

The primary advantages are a higher density soap bar that resists mushing in dish trays, a luxurious, creamy lather, uniform fragrance delivery from the first use to the last, and a significantly extended shelf life and usage life compared to cold-process or cast melt-and-pour soaps.

Our MOQs are engineered to be flexible and supportive of growing brands as well as large retail chains. For standard liquid personal care filling (shampoo, body wash, lotion), MOQs typically start at 3,000 to 5,000 units per SKU depending on bottle size and component customization. For specialized French triple-milled bar soap, MOQs depend on die-cut mold customization and noodle base selection.

Yes. Located in Malaysia, our operations adhere strictly to JAKIM Halal guidelines. Our manufacturing processes ensure total segregation, eliminating cross-contamination with prohibited ingredients. Additionally, as an RSPO member, we offer certified sustainable palm oil options (Mass Balance and Segregated) for fatty acids, emulsifiers, and glycerin derivative components, allowing your brand to fulfill stringent ESG and retail sustainability mandates.

Quality control is integrated across three distinct stages:
1. Incoming Raw Materials: Testing for identity, purity, specific gravity, refractive index, and microbial limits.
2. In-Process Compounding: Monitoring vessel temperature, mixing speed, pH, viscosity, and emulsion stability prior to authorization for filling.
3. Finished Product Clearance: Checking fill weight accuracy, bottle torque, label placement, batch code legibility, leak testing under vacuum, and final 7-day micro clearance testing before shipping authorization.

For established formulations with ready packaging components, standard production lead time is 4 to 6 weeks from raw material approval and artwork sign-off. For new custom ODM formulation projects requiring stability testing, microbial challenge testing, and custom bottle tooling, development lead times range from 8 to 12 weeks prior to mass production. Air freight and maritime shipping options are coordinated directly from our Rawang hub to major ports worldwide.
