OEM Cosmetics Manufacturer
OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer which means these companies manufacture products on behalf of other brands or retailers. OEMs can be found all over the world with China being the largest producer at present.
Quality Control
The first thing that people often think about when they hear “manufacturer” is quality control and this is a valid concern as outsourcing production overseas does not always produce quality goods. However, if your OEM Cosmetic Company has a good reputation and you trust them, then this is not such a big deal.
Product Variety
OEM Cosmetics Manufacturer in Malaysia can produce many different types of products like shampoo bottles, cotton balls or even plastic spoons. What kind of product that the OEM will provide for your brand depends on what they specialize in as well as requests from them.
Price
OEMs offer different prices for their service and this depends on the complexity of the process involved, material used and budget you have set aside for your product. If you cannot afford a high price tag but want to get good quality goods then it’s best to look into more affordable options with less bells or whistles attached.
Delivery Time
OEMs have different delivery times for their products and you should ask your chosen manufacturer about this before signing any contracts. Generally, the longer the delivery time, the higher the price tag so it’s important to find a balance between what you want and how much you’re willing to spend.
Branding
OEMs can put your branding on their products which will give them a unique look and feel. This can be very advantageous for small businesses who want to break into new markets as OEMs have already built up a customer base and trustworthiness in the industry.
Customer Service
When it comes to customer service, OEMs should offer 24/11 support so that you can contact them any time you have a question or concern about your product.
Manufacturing Location
OEMs have different manufacturing locations and this should be taken into account when choosing one. If you want your products to be made in a specific country, then you need to find an OEM that has their base of operations in that country.
Contracts
They are not necessary, most OEM manufacturers will sign a non-disclosure agreement for confidential purposes. Supply agreements on the other hand require much more detailing and commitment from both brand owners and factories.
Samples
When speaking to a potential manufacturer a good preparation is to think about how your product will look, taste, smell, function, and feel. If you have a benchmark sample you are encouraged to provide it, with the final packaging that you intend to use.
To finalise your product think of the following prior to agreeing on the manufacturing of your product:
- The texture
- Colour
- Viscosity
- Fragrence
- Tolerance range of your product for colors and viscosity
- Stability
Prior to your agreement, you should already have reference samples, if not ask for a benchmark sample so you have a reference in case there any disputes on the product performance in case the OEM manufacturer changes anything in the formula.
