Therapists are sometimes more passionate about selling own-brand products
NATURAL SPA FACTORY
The off er: The Natural Spa Factory has supplied natural spa products (for treatments and retail) and toiletries to a number of top spas including the Titanic eco-spa, Thermae Bath Spa and Four Seasons spa, UK. It has three options for private label – entry level, which includes low-run stock items; premium level where bespoke ingredients are added to stock products; and formulating bespoke ranges of larger volumes, which requires more investment and longer lead times. Co-founder Emma Webber says:
“Developing a product range isn’t an easy. Our aim is to simplify this very complicated and expensive process that’s bound by EU legislation and requires formulations, safety testing, product information fi les and good manufacturing practices.” The cost: Entry level ranges cost between £4,000-£6,000 (US$6,650-US$9,950, €4,800-€7,200). Formulating a range from scratch with a particular ingredient

and making specifi c claims can cost anything from £10,000-£20,000 (US$16,600-US$33,200, €11,950-€23,900). Why do it? “It’s an opportunity to promote your business instead of somebody else’s, garner customer loyalty and be creative with your marketing,” adds Webber. “If you have your name on a product you, and your team, are more passionate about using and selling it too.”
Other services: The Natural Spa Factory, which is currently working on 40 private label projects, can also help with marketing, bespoke treatment design, shipping and logistics. In addition, it has a sister company Blue Spa & Leisure which off ers spa concept, design and development consultancy services.

SPA FACTORY BALI
The off er: Although it’s based in Indonesia, Spa Factory Bali supplies spas in 40 countries. Its core off er is massage oils, bath gels, shampoo, body lotions and soaps, along with amenity lines, room scents, aroma diff users and room sprays. All of its products are handmade and not tested on animals. How much: The company says there’s no set price, as costs depend on many components – type and size of container bottle/tube/cap, whether the scent is an essential oil or fragrance oil and, of course, the type of product. Why do it? Having worked with spas such as those at Hyatt, Hilton and Bulgari Bali, Spa Factory Bali has found

that private label products enable facilities to off er more retail items based on what’s used in treatments. By taking the product home, clients can keep up the benefi ts of the treatments and will be continually be reminded of their experience. How long does it take? The development process takes around one to two months, plus another two to three months for production. Other services: In addition to white label products, Spa Factory Bali designs and manufactures attractive spa and hotel accessories such as foot ritual bowls, product dispensers and testers, tea ritual trays and tissues boxes.
