Product development program

Cohere Beauty Brand Development Program moves new products quickly through the full development lifecycle, while simultaneously reducing cost, post-production errors, and launch times. Our approach is built on tried-and-true manufacturing best practices and designed to operate at a highly efficient pace to get you to market faster.

1

Discovery & Brand Profile

Innovative formulations can be the difference between your product simply being on the market and a product that defines your market. Our R&D team includes dozens of degreed chemists and engineers who are experienced in all facets of product research, the formulation of complex products, technology transfer, formula cost reduction, and replicating established formulas. We’ll also help you explore and clarify your design requirements to ingredients that will move the needle for your customers. Together, we’ll create a Brand Profile that clearly outlines the requirements of your brand/product, including whether it meets clean list for established brand (Target, Walmart, Ulta, Sephora).

Product Testing

Before products move further, they undergo a comprehensive testing program to ensure there are no surprises when you get to market. We test each product using in-house labs for raw material and component compatibility, preservative testing, product stability, and packaging compatibility. Our testing and compliance testing process reduces product development times up to 2X, leading to the fastest launch times in the industry.

Quality & Regulatory Assurance

Unlike some manufacturers, Cohere Beauty provide real-time reviews for 181 countries around the world. Each product undergoes six real-time regulatory reviews to identify and eliminate issues you may encounter as you launch in new markets and countries. With multiple testing and compliance reviews throughout the development lifecycle, this decreases post-production risks, and our customers are prepared to launch their product. Why is this so important? Because it reduces the product development process and minimizes potential production problems.

4

Packaging & Label Design

Packaging is one of the most important elements of your product’s success. The right container and graphics are critical to both visual appeal and brand identification. Cohere Beauty is able to fill every size and type of packaging, from sachets to tanker trucks. We also recommend sustainable and innovative packaging solutions that fit clearly within your brand promise. Our compatibility testing service ensures that your packaging meets regulatory requirements and can be cost-effectively produced. And our artwork review will help to ensure that your packaging is “street legal,” identifying claims that may be concerning to regulators.

Manufacturing & Fulfillment

Finally, once formulation is fully approved and tested, you will move to production with confidence. Our manufacturing lines can handle a wide variety of formulas, batch sizes, and order quantities. In addition to contract manufacturing, our services include product formulation / research and development, filling services, quality control, pack out, and shipping. With four production facilities across the U.S., Cohere Beauty offers 800,000 sq. ft. of manufacturing and warehousing space, 30 production lines, and fully integrated computer tracking for production and scheduling efficiency.
