Editor’s Page
REBUILDING EFFORTS CONTINUE IN 2011 There are clear signs that the global personal care and household care industry is on the mend. For example, sales of prestige skin care products rebounded in the second half of 2010 and even the moribund fine fragrance industry had a good December. All of the recent data suggest that the industry is regaining some of the luster that was lost during The Great Recession. As consumers become more confident and begin shopping in earnest again, household and personal product manufacturers must ramp up R&D efforts to deliver innovative products that provide a difference that consumers can see and feel—whether it’s a shampoo, laundry detergent, skin care product or household cleaner. With their research programs reinvigorated, marketers are looking for suppliers that can deliver novel ingredients and packaging components, along with the data that’s necessary to back up claims. If you’re searching for a supplier to help you roll out innovative products, take a moment to learn more about the companies found in our annual *Corporate Profiles issue. Now in its 15th year, *Corporate Profiles gives our readers a convenient and comprehensive look at household and personal product industry suppliers, their facilities, products and areas of expertise. Whether you’re looking for active ingredients, stock bottles, fragrance compounds, surfactants, botanical extracts or testing services, *Happi Corporate Profiles provides information on each company’s background, products and the markets they serve, as well as the technology, patents, new products, key personnel, specialized services and global capabilities unique to each company. To make the most out of *Happi Corporate Profiles, please see the table of contents on page 2. All of the companies within these pages are excellent sources of innovative ingredients or novel packaging concepts. Once you’ve had a chance to flip through *Happi Corporate Profiles, we’re sure that you’ll find a partner to help you create all of those innovative products that today’s consumer demands.
