The history of Schwan-STABILO Cosmetics has always been one of technological innovation. Today, more than ever, research and development are carried out systematically and at great expense: year after year multi-million-euro investments are made in new product concepts, new application systems and new textures.
A clearly visible sign of Schwan-STABILO Cosmetics’ future-oriented approach is the technical centre at the company headquarters in Heroldsberg. This independently organised research & development centre brings together chemists, engineers, pharmacists and microbiologists under one roof, unconstrained by the company’s day-to-day business. They are working in interdisciplinary teams today on the material and process concepts of tomorrow.
At the same time, innovation at Schwan-STABILO Cosmetics is not limited to technical expertise alone. Development is viewed as an integrated process that permeates the entire business structure and successfully combines several different factors:
openness towards new market segments and their creative development, consumer-oriented product development and the flexible integration of customer-specific ideas into production processes.
