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.'

Kolmar Korea's anti-aging breakthrough featured in SCI journal
Korean cosmetics contract manufacturer Kolmar Korea said Tuesday that its study on the antiaging effects of Spiraea salicifolia has recently been published in the international SCI (Science Citation Index) journal Natural Product Communications. Conducted over two years in collaboration with Professor Lee Ki-yong's team at Korea University's College of Pharmacy, the study is the first to confirm that the plant extract helps slow skin aging. A Korean native and a member of the Rosaceae family, Spiraea salicifolia has traditionally been used to treat arthritis and bruises, but its skincare benefits had not been previously explored. Kolmar Korea's research found that the plant's extract has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and wrinkle-reducing properties. Hyperoside, the active compound in the plant, slows aging and inhibits collagen-decomposing enzymes by up to 43 percent, helping to maintain skin structure and elasticity. Following these findings, Kolmar Korea registered Spiraea salicifolia extract in the International Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary and Korea's official cosmetic ingredient database. The company has also secured a domestic patent for its use in cosmetic formulations. Kolmar Korea said it plans to develop antiaging cosmetics featuring the newly found extract, citing China and the US as the key target markets, where there is growing demand for natural Korean ingredients. The company has previously researched various native plants for cosmetics, including Sophora flavescens for hair loss, sunflower and lingonberry for skin protection, and aquatic plants for antiaging. It has also developed fragrances using Hibiscus syriacus and lotus flowers from Buyeo. 'With the rising popularity of K-beauty, we will continue to develop high-efficacy products using Korea's unique botanical resources,' a Kolmar Korea representative stated. 'Our goal is to create scientifically backed skincare solutions that combine tradition with innovation, allowing us to compete in the global market.'

Kolmar pioneers sun care market with breakthrough UV tech
Korea's leading cosmetics original design manufacturer Kolmar Korea announced on Monday that it has successfully developed the world's first stabilization technology that seamlessly integrates mineral and chemical UV filters into a single hybrid sunscreen. The newly developed "UV-Duo Plus" technology combines the superior UV-blocking power of mineral filters with the smooth application of chemical filters, delivering an advanced hybrid sun protection solution. Chemical sunscreens absorb UV rays and convert them into heat energy, providing a lightweight, non-whitening finish. In contrast, mineral sunscreens reflect UV rays at the skin's surface, minimizing irritation and offering advanced protection — though they often leave a noticeable white cast. By incorporating both mechanisms, hybrid sunscreens balance the gentleness of mineral filters with the effortless application of chemical filters. In clinical trials, Kolmar Korea's hybrid formula demonstrated a 24.8 percent improvement in long-wavelength UV protection at 400 nanometers, compared to conventional single-filter products. According to the company, the UV-Duo Plus technology not only protects the skin from UV rays but also helps slow down skin aging by blocking long-wavelength UVA, which is a major contributor to photoaging. To accelerate its expansion in the emerging global market, Kolmar Korea is pursuing international patent applications. "While hybrid sunscreens that simply mix mineral and chemical filters already exist, no product has successfully achieved a complete fusion of both components like ours," a Kolmar Korea official said. "With UV-Duo Plus, we aim to develop a diverse range of sun care products and expand our footprint in both domestic and global markets." Meanwhile, Kolmar Korea has been at the forefront of sun care innovation, globally. In 2022, it became the first in the industry to establish the UV Tech Innovation R&D Center and now holds over 70 patents related to UV protection. The company was also an early entrant into the US market, becoming the first in the industry to obtain OTC certification from the FDA in 2013. With its second US manufacturing facility set to begin operations in the first half of this year, Kolmar Korea expects to increase its North American production capacity from 180 million to 300 million units annually.
