Here at Opalbond we have strategic relationships with a variety of contract manufacturers across the UK and EU. Contract manufacturing is where a manufacturer produces a product for another company, with their customers formula and design.
There are huge benefits for brands to look to get their products contract manufactured, it means that the manufacturer will have a specialist product range, meaning that innovation and quality is high, and the costs are lower.
Without having to invest in the machinery yourself as a brand, looking for contract manufacturing opportunities allows you to launch new products that you wouldn’t be able to launch otherwise, and allows you to trial and test new concepts without much commitment.
Most contract manufacturers offer a range of products, either bespoke formulations dictated by the brand, or “off the shelf” products that you are able to buy in your label without the need for developments. In the healthcare and vitamin world, the latter is particularly popular for key product ranges such as Vitamin C and Immunity based products.
Finding good, high quality contract manufacturers is something that Opalbond pride ourselves on. We have long standing relationships with all of our manufacturers and regularly audit them to ensure they are held to the highest standards.
