Innovation is always a key trend at Cosmopack Asia,with companies stepping up to the challenge of pushing boundaries in this fast-paced and constantly evolving marketplace.

"We chose to participate in Cosmoprof Asia because it has become a symbol for international beauty and cosmetics leaders," says Patrick Leung,vice president for Hong Kong's Global Cosmetics.
