Your Swiss contract manufacturer for cosmetics
As a specialist with 80 years of expertise in cosmetics development and production, we can offer everything from formulation development to the finished product. We ensure that your product is a success and cover all areas of skincare and cleansing cosmetics with our broad-based expertise, from natural cosmetics to specialty cosmetics such as suncream, clean beauty and phytocosmetics, all the way through to medical applications.
Outsourcing your products to us as a contract manufacturer for cosmetics frees you up to focus entirely on marketing and brand management. In every collaboration, confidentiality is a top priority for us. At the FRIKE GROUP, we have made the deliberate decision not to sell our own brands, so we can act as a neutral and independent full-service partner for cosmetics.
Full service from your contract filler
As a complete system provider, our core areas of expertise lie in the development of innovative and sustainable products, together with bulk production, filling and packaging. This makes us a full-service provider, from the initial idea to the finished product.
We are also your go-to partner for the onward development or testing of existing formulations, including certifications. Of course, our services also cover all regulatory registrations and approvals. Our long-standing international network of suppliers of raw materials, active ingredients of all kinds and packaging materials offers you a great deal of freedom in product design.
Top-level customer service: You will be assigned a specific contact person who will support you and address any concerns that you may have. Let’s work together to make your product a success!
Production and development of sunscreen products
Ultrasun has been working with the FRIKE GROUP as a full-service partner for around 15 years. And there are plenty of good reasons for that, as Benedikt Irniger, CEO of Ultrasun AG, explains: “The FRIKE GROUP is our partner for our entire AHA-certified sun protection line. They can produce everything in their facilities, from the cream to the powder. They assist us with development, too, which can be particularly complex for sunscreen products and requires a great deal of experience. The FRIKE GROUP is a key partner in maintaining our product quality at a high level – and without any controversial ingredients.
Sustainably increasing the product quality of cosmetics
The FRIKE GROUP develops and produces the majority of Epi-Pharm AG’s certified natural cosmetics. The company is committed to offering modern natural cosmetics that make the most of technological progress while respecting the environment. “Thanks to the FRIKE GROUP’s many years of experience, we have been able to sustainably improve the product quality of our natural and organic cosmetics and are working together to continue the success story of the Biskosma brand with high-quality and innovative products,” explains CEO Stefan Binz. He also appreciates the fact that outsourcing frees up Epi-Pharm AG to concentrate fully on product marketing.
