WHY MAXIMUM C/Q

We specialize in making custom formulations for our clients that they can own and control the Intellectual Property.

We assist with all aspects of the development process from defining key product parameters, to formula development, package and fragrance selection, product claim development and support, identification of compliance and regulatory needs, stability and qualification testing, and manufacturing of the finished items for sale. We focus on small-scale manufacturing runs that large contract manufacturers decline to do. We do realize (hope) that our clients grow their business effectively and outgrow our capabilities and capacity. If/When that happens, we can assist in identifying the next tier of contract manufacturer and in the qualification of them.
