Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Selecting the right OEM/ODM manufacturer is critical to your brand's market success and legal compliance. Overseas procurement managers should evaluate the following key parameters:

• Quality Certifications: Ensure the facility holds verified ISO 22716 (Cosmetics International GMP), ISO 9001, and US FDA registration.
• Halal Certification: Verify JAKIM Halal accreditation if targeting ASEAN or Middle Eastern markets.
• One-Stop Capabilities: Partner with a manufacturer that manages raw material sourcing, formula R&D, packaging compatibility testing, regulatory notifications, and international freight forwarding.
• Formulation Stability & IP Protection: Choose partners with established analytical laboratories capable of conducting micro-challenge and stability testing under global standards.
