Why DermaXiX

Not just a manufacturer.

We're the production heart of the Isondo Group — bringing the same peak service and security of supply to external partners.

01

Multi-Channel Experience

Proven success manufacturing hotel amenities and personal care products for both high-turnover hospitality and premium retail chains.

02

Co-Creation

We don't just supply; we co-create products fit for your specific brand and formulation requirements, including free custom branding on selected lines.

03

Security of Supply

Gradual, disciplined growth ensures capacity never compromises delivery of your hotel amenities — on time, every time.

The DermaXiX Advantage

"We don't just mix ingredients — we engineer solutions."

By focusing strictly on the B2B sector, we've streamlined operations to eliminate bottlenecks that typically plague the supply chain. From concept to chemistry, and from filling to freight, DermaXiX is your partner in navigating the future of cosmetic science.

Cosmetic formulation laboratory
Quality System

End-to-end assurance, embedded in operations.

Good Manufacturing Practices defined to the EU Cosmetics Directive (76/768/EEC). Every raw material tested on receipt; every formulation validated in the micro-laboratory; every finished product checked before it's packed.

  • Physical stability — colour, odour, pH, viscosity, texture, flow, emulsion
  • Microbiological stability — bacteria, mould and yeast contamination testing
  • Packaging stability — weight loss, leakage and stacking tests
Environment

Protect the foundation of life.

Cleaner formulations

Free from phthalates, parabens and formaldehyde-releasing preservatives. Readily bio-degradable and not expected to bio-concentrate in the environment.

Responsible packaging

Refillable containers, biodegradable polyethylene, no PVC, and a significant share of packaging produced from recycled materials.
