Business Awards 2025

APAC Insider- Business Awards 2025 | 17 As consumers grow increasingly conscious of their selfcare routines, the global demand for natural and organic beauty products continues to rise. One of the most respected regions for beauty manufacturing, Australia is renowned for its standards of safety, transparency, and quality. Lab Organic Formulations stands at the forefront of the country’s manufacturing sector, proudly upholding its Made in Australia status with natural and organic beauty products that tell a story of authenticity and conscience. We heard more from General Manager Mac O Gachain below, following the company’s recent recognition in the APAC Business Awards 2025. Standing out as Australia’s leading natural and organic cosmetic manufacturer, Lab Organic Formulations is a company on a mission to elevate the natural beauty industry through integrity, innovation, and sustainability. The company is trusted by a diverse portfolio of Australian and international brands – from emerging indie labels to globally recognised names – operating from its ISO-22716 GMP-certified facility on the Sunshine Coast to produce exceptional haircare, skincare, and body products for its partner brands. Lab Organic Formulations offers a wide range of end-to-end manufacturing solutions, each geared towards delivering unrivalled results for its clients’ brands. This includes custom formulation development for haircare, skincare, body, and natural treatments; private label and white label programs for fast-to-market solutions; small- and largescale production capabilities to support brands at all growth stages; product testing and stability services aligned with ISO-22716 GMP requirements; and packaging sourcing and component filling across bottles, jars, tubes, and pumps. The company partners with brands at every stage, offering them tailored support that allows them to bring high-performance, natural products to life. Its expertise spans the full product development journey from concept, formulation, and testing through to manufacturing, filling, and logistics. Whether developing a custom formula or scaling production for established ranges, clients of Lab Organic Formulations can rest assured that their products will be developed with an equal focus on quality, compliance, and creativity. “Our clients choose Lab Organic Formulations because we don’t just manufacture, we collaborate,” Mac stated. “Our inhouse chemists, production experts, and quality-assurance teams work hand-inhand with each brand to ensure that every product reflects their unique vision, meets all regulatory standards, and delivers exceptional performance for the consumer. Our partners have grown from local start-ups to international brands with products proudly stocked globally in Sephora, Priceline, Adore Beauty, Ulta, and Target US.” Ultimately, Lab Organic Formulations’ service is centred on one core belief: great manufacturing begins with great partnerships. Every client is treated as a collaborator and not a transaction, with a process designed to ensure they feel supported and informed throughout development and production. Whether working with an emerging startup or a global brand, Lab Organic Formulations approaches every project with equal dedication, offering strategic guidance and technical expertise that empowers brands to thrive in competitive markets. This approach to client service has certainly evolved in the years since the company’s establishment, aligning with the changing expectations of both consumers and brand founders. Where the focus was once placed solely on natural ingredients, today’s dynamic landscape demands more: clinically supported performance, sustainability credentials, and traceable transparency. Lab Organic Formulations has met these challenges head-on, with investment in advanced formulation technology, R&D innovation, and data-driven production systems that help partners compete on a global scale. Moving forward, Lab Organic Formulations is looking to a future defined by innovation, sustainability, and the ongoing pursuit of excellence. As it looks to the final months of 2025 and into 2026, the company will focus on building upon the strong foundations that have allowed it to stand as Australia’s leading natural and organic cosmetic manufacturer. Across its upcoming endeavours, the focus remains clear: to continue raising the standard for what it means to manufacture beauty products responsibly, creatively, and at scale. Lab Organic Formulations intends to continue pushing the boundaries of clean beauty, with plans to explore high-performance natural ingredients, biodegradable actives, and advanced formulation technologies. Alongside this, it will invest further in the team, expanding the workforce to meet growing demand while ensuring every staff member receives ongoing training in compliance, safety, and innovation. Throughout this process, the team will strategically position the company for growth across global markets, as the demand for Australian-made clean beauty continues to accelerate. “The future holds extraordinary potential for Lab Organic Formulations and the brands we serve,” Mac announced. “We are excited to continue leading the evolution of natural and organic beauty manufacturing. For us, the future is about progress with purpose – innovation guided by integrity and growth that uplifts both our partners and the planet. At Lab Organic Formulations, we are just getting started.” Contact: Mac O Gachain Company: Lab Organic Formulations Web Address: www.laborganics.com.au Best Natural & Organic Cosmetics Manufacturer 2025 – Australia
