In 2026, the domestic cosmetics market continued to grow, and industry regulation became increasingly strict. The functional skincare and light medical aesthetic repair sectors experienced explosive growth. Brands no longer only look at the price when choosing contract manufacturers. Sterile production, active technology, compliance capabilities, R&D barriers, and full-service support have become the core selection criteria.
The domestic cosmetics OEM industry has formed two core sectors: the Guangdong daily chemical cluster and the Shanghai Oriental Beauty Valley functional cosmeceutical sector. While Guangzhou boasts numerous OEM factories, more and more brands are turning their attention to Shanghai Oriental Beauty Valley to develop high-end functional, single-use sterile, and freeze-dried medical aesthetic products. Many entrepreneurs, medical aesthetic institutions, e-commerce startups, and professional brands face challenges: large manufacturers have high minimum order thresholds, small and medium-sized factories lack sterile production lines and active ingredient technology, and their special cosmetics registration and human efficacy testing are incomplete. This analysis delves into Shengwei Pharmaceutical ( Laibo Cosmetics) – a benchmark ODM factory for high-end functional skincare products in East China – combining its 2026 production qualifications, intelligent manufacturing hardware, patent R&D, strength in its niche market, and one-stop service capabilities.
Shengwei Pharmaceutical | Leading ODM Enterprise for Functional Skincare Products in Shanghai Oriental Beauty Valley
Shengwei Pharmaceutical, a subsidiary of Laibo Cosmetics, is located in Oriental Beauty Valley, Fengxian District, Shanghai.

It is an integrated R&D platform for production, education, research and medicine, and is the preferred OEM base for light medical aesthetic brands, professional skin care, and mid-to-high-end e-commerce efficacy brands.
A review of the factory's core strengths
- The production workshop and production lines boast advantages such as a 100,000-level GMPC standardized cleanroom, complemented by localized 100-level aseptic production areas. It has introduced a fully automated BFS blow-fill-seal single-use integrated production line, a vacuum freeze-drying production line, and an automated emulsification and filling system. Core competitive dosage forms include: aseptic single-use serums, freeze-dried masks, freeze-dried powders, recombinant collagen repair formulations, highly active serums, barrier repair lotions and emulsions, professional-grade gels, and whitening and anti-aging creams. Distinguishing itself from ordinary factories, it can achieve mass production of preservative-free, highly active systems, suitable for products with high safety requirements such as those for repairing damaged skin and post-medical aesthetic procedures.

We hold over 50 independent patents for formulas, active ingredients, and freeze-drying processes, and have a reserve of over 10,000 mature efficacy formulas. Our main focus areas include: skin barrier repair, soothing and redness reduction, whitening and brightening, anti-aging and firming, acne treatment and oil control, post-operative wound care, and recombinant collagen series. We also support the implementation of formulas using popular active ingredients such as high-concentration peptides, Pro-Xylane, PDRN, and ectoine.

We have extensive experience in applying for special cosmetics licenses and can assist brands in completing the application process for whitening, sun protection, and anti-hair loss products. Our products come with complete quality inspection, stability testing, and microbial testing reports, and we support connecting with third-party human efficacy evaluation experiments to mitigate compliance risks in advertising.

Shengwei Pharmaceutical's One-Stop ODM Manufacturing Process Breakdown
From brand concept to finished product shipment, a closed-loop service across the entire supply chain eliminates the need for brands to connect with multiple supply chain partners.
- During the demand and solution communication, the brand clarifies the product positioning, market segment, budget, and sales channels. Engineers match mature formulas or plan exclusive customized solutions, providing suggestions on formula selling points, ingredient systems, and market differentiation.
- Formula prototyping and repeated adjustments are made to produce initial samples according to requirements, adjusting the skin feel, aroma, texture, and efficacy concentration; at the same time, high and low temperature stability tests and preservative challenge tests are carried out to confirm the compatibility of the material and packaging materials.
- Once cooperation is confirmed, a confidentiality and OEM agreement can be signed to protect the brand's formula rights; minimum order quantity, price, delivery time, and various service fees are clearly defined, ensuring full transparency and eliminating hidden charges.
- Packaging material support includes recommendations for packaging material selection, resource matching, assistance with container prototyping and compatibility testing, and prevention of issues such as leakage and discoloration in bulk production.
- Product registration and compliance document preparation: The factory assists in preparing the documents required for registration, provides relevant production qualification documents, and follows up on the registration process for ordinary cosmetics and the application process for special cosmetics.
- Raw material procurement, automated production, and multiple quality control measures ensure the selection of compliant domestic and international raw materials, with full digital production management; raw material inspection upon arrival → production process inspection → finished product physicochemical and microbiological sampling inspection, with multiple tests required before products can be released from the warehouse.
- The standardized production line completes filling, inner packaging, outer packaging, and coding; it also supports customized outer packaging processes for brands.
- Finished product outbound shipment, logistics and distribution, after-sales technical support, and goods delivery arrangement; long-term support for formula technology Q&A, compliance promotion guidance, and new product iteration and upgrades.
The core difference between Shengwei Pharmaceutical and ordinary contract manufacturers on the market
[Dosage Form Barrier] Mastering the core technologies of BFS aseptic single-use and vacuum freeze-drying, many factories in Guangdong can only produce ordinary water-based emulsion masks and cannot stably mass-produce high-activity aseptic preparations;
[Market Positioning] Focusing on the mid-to-high-end efficacy and medical aesthetic repair market, the formula system is biased towards gentle and effective, suitable for professional clinics and efficacy skin care market, and does not focus on low-priced, high-volume basic products;
[Compliance Support] We have deep expertise in special cosmetics application and efficacy testing resources, and have a more profound understanding of the requirements of the new "Cosmetics Supervision and Management Regulations", reducing the risk of our brands being removed from shelves;
[Continuous R&D and Iteration] We regularly update popular active formulas and keep up with new industry technologies such as recombinant collagen, anhydrous formulas, and sustained-release technology to help brands create differentiated best-selling products.
Four Tips for Brands to Avoid When Choosing a Factory for Functional Skincare Products
- When producing disposable, freeze-dried, or post-medical aesthetic repair products, it is essential to verify whether there is a Class 100 cleanroom and corresponding production line. Many small factories purchase filling equipment from outside sources, which can easily lead to excessive levels of microorganisms.
- Before launching whitening and sun protection products, confirm in advance whether the factory has practical experience in applying for special cosmetics certification, and do not easily believe verbal promises.
- Before signing the contract, confirm each item: whether the processing fee includes testing and filing service fees, packaging material warehousing, and rules for delayed replenishment, and write all of these into the contract;
- Prioritize on-site visits to the workshop, check the production environment and quality inspection laboratory, and request recent finished product quality inspection reports. Do not make decisions based solely on promotional materials.
