The global supplier of specialty chemicals and ingredients has opened its new Beauty & Personal Care laboratory in IMCD’s new offices in Brea, California. The new facility is part of IMCD’s growing network of 80+ technical centers worldwide.
The opening celebration brought together IMCD partners, customers, and employees for an evening of connection. Guests were able to visit the new lab facilities and experience first-hand a new space where creativity meets science.
Designed as a hub for co-creation, the new facility offers an expanded laboratory alongside meeting areas dedicated to development meetings, formulation workshops, and brainstorming sessions. These new facilities will allow IMCD teams, customers, and principals to explore concepts together and turn ideas into market ready prototypes with greater speed and efficiency.
“This new laboratory represents how we want to be the formulatory go-to partner for our customers. It embodies innovation, collaboration, and technical excellence, the foundation of how we differentiate ourselves in the market. We are excited to strengthen our presence on the West Coast and continue building meaningful partnerships,” commented Ian Lawrence, Director of IMCD Beauty & Personal Care Americas.
“Our approach is to inspire, support curiosity, and bring forward solutions that help brands stand out in a fast-moving beauty landscape. This facility allows us to create and test ideas directly with our customers, and to turn consumer and market trends into actionable concepts,” added Danielle Wheeler, Technical Director of IMCD Beauty and Personal Care Americas.
