Cosactive raw material management
Cosactive raw material management solves your problems, because in recent years, the cosmetics industry in Europe has been confronted with drastic price increases for raw materials. Surcharges of 60–80 % are no longer an exception, which poses immense challenges for many manufacturers. In order to remain competitive in this dynamic market, innovative and safe solutions are required. Cosactive Raw Materials Management offers exactly that: a unique concept based on testing and approving raw materials from different suppliers under uniform specifications.
Hidden raw material costs: Another challenge for the industry
In addition to the obvious price increases for raw materials, hidden costs are increasingly burdening the cosmetics industry. Cosactive takes these factors into account in its strategies in order to offer its customers maximum efficiency. Logistical challenges such as rising CO₂ costs, the increase in tolls and minimum order values of 800 to 1,200 euros make procurement considerably more difficult. Many raw material suppliers no longer work with smaller quantities, which puts smaller manufacturers under pressure.
In addition, many raw material producers no longer have sufficient storage capacity to store large quantities. They avoid capital lockup and demand forecast scenarios from manufacturers in order to plan deliveries in the long term. These circumstances mean that delivery times of 8 to 12 weeks are becoming the norm. Cosactive meets these challenges with flexible sourcing strategies, close cooperation with logistics partners and the optimization of procurement processes. This enables customers to remain competitive even in this difficult market environment.
Challenges in the raw materials market
Rising production costs, geopolitical uncertainties and problems in the supply chains have led to an unprecedented increase in the prices of many raw materials in Europe. For cosmetics manufacturers, this often means either accepting higher prices or risking inferior alternatives. Both can endanger product quality and shrink profit margins. This is where Cosactive raw material management comes in and creates a decisive advantage for manufacturers.
