Fomalhaut is a cosmetic packaging manufacturer with its own factory, serving established beauty and skincare brands. We manufacture bottles, jars, airless packaging, tubes, vials, ampoules and makeup packaging.
Already have specifications, a packaging reference or artwork? Start a packaging project review. If not, first compare the packaging route, order requirements, materials and manufacturing support.
Start with the format closest to your project.
The selected family gives Fomalhaut the starting point for product, material, grade, capacity, component, PCR content and order evaluation. Exact availability is confirmed for the package you intend to source.

Existing design route
Available customization includes:
Colors for bottles, pumps and caps
Gloss, matte and soft-touch finishes
Silk screen printing, UV printing, hot stamping, frosted treatment, spray coating, laser engraving, labeling and decals
Matching paper boxes, gift boxes and mailer boxes
Color & coating
Surface finishes
Premium accents
Precision graphics
Choose this route when the base shape and function already meet your requirement and the branded difference can come from color, finish, decoration, components or matching boxes. If the structure itself must change, request a new-mold technical review.
Available combinations are confirmed against the product, component, material, geometry, artwork, order quantity and sample.
Structure development route
New molds are available for glass bottles, plastic bottles and plastic components. Each project goes through technical evaluation and sample approval before bulk production.
Mold tooling
Structure development
Technical review required
Choose this route when decoration alone cannot achieve the required structure. Typical starting requirements are:
Final feasibility, quantity and schedule depend on approved specifications, components, tests and the production plan. Share the intended structure, material and component requirements for technical review.
Typical new-mold development path
Each project moves through technical evaluation and sample approval before bulk production.
Review the intended structure, material and component requirements.
Typical mold-development time.
Review the completed sample against approved specifications, components and required tests.
Typical production time after sample approval.
Projects that need deeper structure development can be reviewed as part of cosmetic packaging design and development.
Complete packaging route
Use this route when the value comes from aligning multiple packaging parts rather than buying a single container.
Complete packaging set
One visual system
Primary container
Pump or closure
Decoration
Matching boxes
Fomalhaut can coordinate a complete cosmetic packaging set across the primary container, pump or closure, decoration, and matching paper box, gift box or mailer box.
This is packaging coordination only. It does not include cosmetic formulation, filling or contract packing, and each component combination remains subject to product and technical evaluation.
Commercial checkpoints
Use these typical starting quantities to check whether a route fits your project:
5,000 pieces for standard glass bottles and jars.
10,000 pieces for standard plastic packaging, PCR packaging, existing-design printing or spray projects, and new-mold plastic projects.
30,000 pieces for new-mold glass projects.
Final MOQ depends on the product, material, decoration, component and technical evaluation.
USD 200 per style
For custom color spray or printing samples, the fee is typically USD 200 per style and the process takes about 14 days. The sample fee can be refunded after a bulk order when the approved print artwork remains unchanged; confirm the quotation and refund term for each order.
Final schedules depend on approved specifications, components, quantity, testing and production planning. Shipping time is not included.
Materials & sustainable options
Available material families include Glass, PET, PP, PETG, HDPE, PCR, Acrylic, Aluminum, Bamboo, Paper and Sugarcane Plastic. The exact product, grade, composition, component, PCR percentage and order availability are confirmed for each package.
02 · Sustainability options
PCR options
Eligible bottles can be developed with up to 100% PCR content, while eligible pump heads can be developed with 30% PCR content. PCR raw-material traceability documentation is available. Color, performance, feasibility, order requirements and document coverage are reviewed for the selected component.
FSC paper options
FSC-certified paper packaging and FSC 100% recycled paper options are available for qualifying paper products and supply chains. The holder, code, certificate scope and current validity are confirmed before a specific FSC reference is used.
03 · Package-specific confirmation
The exact product, grade, composition, component, PCR percentage and order availability are confirmed for each package.

"Instead of creating entirely new molds, Fomalhaut modified an existing glass bottle mold by increasing its height while maintaining the same diameter. This achieved our new capacity requirement while saving us significant tooling costs."
Cost-Effective Capacity Expansion
"By utilizing standard glass containers and pairing them with highly flexible, customized accessories, we achieved a premium, cohesive brand aesthetic without the high costs of fully custom molds."
Cohesive Branding on a Budget
"Fomalhaut provided rapid physical samples for immediate adjustment, ensuring we met our tight launch date for our full premium eco-friendly line without compromising quality."

To support both established brands and indie startups, we offer a low Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) of 5,000 pieces for standard glass bottles and jars. For fully customized plastic containers, such as PCR or PP airless bottles, the MOQ typically starts at 10,000 pieces depending on the specific material and manufacturing process.
Our standard sampling lead time is 14 days. We charge a standard fee of $200 per SKU for physical samples, which includes accurate Pantone color matching and surface decoration testing. This sampling fee is fully refundable once you place the mass production order without any design changes.
For wholesale in-stock packaging, orders are processed and ready for dispatch within 3 to 7 days. For custom manufacturing orders requiring specific surface treatments or custom molding, the standard production lead time is 25 to 35 days after sample approval. If new mold development is required, please allow an additional 30 to 40 days.
We source high-quality PCR materials with stable physical properties and complete traceability. To prevent color inconsistency, we conduct rigorous raw material testing and recommend an optimal PCR ratio of 30% to 50%. Every production batch undergoes 100% full inspection, including dimensional checks, thermal shock resistance, leak testing, and visual defect inspections to guarantee premium brand presentation and regulatory compliance.
