Kolmar Korea wins dual honors at 2025 Cosmopack Awards
Korean cosmetics contract manufacturer Kolmar Korea has won two awards at the Cosmopack Awards — referred to as the 'Oscars of the cosmetics industry' — the company announced Thursday.
The awards were presented at the 56th Cosmoprof Worldwide Bologna 2025, the world's largest beauty trade show, held from March 20 to 23 in Bologna, Italy. Kolmar Korea received honors in both the innovation technology and sustainability categories, making it the only company to win multiple awards this year.
The recognition highlights Kolmar Korea's dedication to developing core technologies that shape the future of beauty, including AI, hyper-personalization and eco-friendly solutions.
In the innovation technology category, the cosmetics giant was awarded for its AI-based skincare solution, CAIOME. The system analyzes a user's skin microbiome through a simple swab test and delivers personalized skincare recommendations from tens of thousands of possible formulations. CAIOME was previously showcased at CES 2025, a prominent tech event, in Las Vegas.
In the Sustainability category, Kolmar Korea was honored for its patented eco-friendly ingredient ECO-PULSE Centella, an extract of Centella asiatica developed using a non-thermal extraction process. The method reduces carbon emissions by over 20 percent while producing higher concentrations of skin-soothing compounds.
'These awards reflect Kolmar Korea's 35 years of R&D leadership combined with emerging technologies,' a company representative said. 'We aim to continue driving innovation in the global beauty market.'
