Contract Manufacturing
Do you have a great idea for a new cosmetic, household cleaner, or OTC product? Bring it to us and we’ll guide you every step of the way.
We’re able to customize every aspect of your product, from texture to fragrance to price point. Do your customers want organic ingredients? Demand sulfate-free formulas? Insist on a unique fragrance? We can do it all.
Depending on your product needs and desired time to market (TTM), we’ll either develop a brand-new, custom formula for your product, or provide you with one of our existing formulas that are proven effective customer favorites.

Turnkey Service
Turnkey means we do it all in-house, from developing a brand-new formula to batching, filling, testing, branding, graphic design, retail packaging, and labeling. It all takes place in our 45,000-square foot headquarters in Chicago. Our facility is FDA-registered and cGMP-compliant. Whatever your contract manufacturing needs, we have the resources to achieve them here at Concept Labs.

Contract Packaging and Artwork
Packaging is vital. Creating a great skin care product or hair care product is important, but it’s just the beginning. Without the right look, even the most effective product in the world will collect dust on the shelf.
We can source any consumer-friendly component you want: tubes, bottles, jars, pumps, boxes, and more. You’re free to design your own artwork, or let our graphic design department create a look for you that will truly stand out. It’s all up to you.
Quality Control
Finally, our quality control department helps ensure that all aspects of your product are legal and in line with FDA and other regulations. We review all marketing claims and test all new products for stability and consistency. Rest assured knowing that your product was developed and manufactured the right way.
