Cosmopack Asia is the supply-chain half of Cosmoprof Asia — and for any brand owner who needs a manufacturer, it is the more important hall. Held at AsiaWorld-Expo in Hong Kong from 13 to 15 November 2024, the 2024 edition gathered ingredient houses, packaging makers, machinery suppliers and contract manufacturers (OEM/ODM and private label) under one roof. Here is what it offers and the links you need.

Key takeaways

  • Cosmopack Asia is the full beauty supply chain: ingredients & raw materials, packaging, machinery, and OEM/ODM & private-label contract manufacturing.
  • It runs at AsiaWorld-Expo, alongside Cosmoprof Asia at the HKCEC, every November in Hong Kong.
  • For sourcing a manufacturer or packaging partner, this is the most efficient hall at the show.

What is Cosmopack Asia?

Cosmopack Asia is the business-to-business, supply-chain section of the Cosmoprof Asia event, organised by Cosmoprof Asia Ltd (BolognaFiere Group + Informa Markets). While the Cosmoprof halls show finished brands, Cosmopack is where the products are actually made possible — formulation and active ingredients, primary and secondary packaging, filling and production machinery, and full-service OEM/ODM and private-label manufacturers.

Inside the 2024 edition

Across halls signposted for OEM/ODM & private label and ingredients & raw materials, suppliers from Asia and Europe presented side by side. Live machinery demonstrations let visitors see filling, mixing and packaging lines in action — a fast way to judge a manufacturer's real capability rather than a brochure claim.
