Thailand show poised for 100 new exhibitors
The 2025 edition of in-cosmetics Asia in Bangkok in November will feature up to 100 new exhibitors in what is shaping up to be the biggest show to-date. This year’s event will play host
to 80% of the world’s top ten ingredient suppliers, including industry giants like BASF, Croda, Clariant, and Evonik. It is also expected to welcome
90% of the world’s top ten cosmetic manufacturers, from L’Oréal and P&G to Kenvue and Unilever. The 2025 edition will feature
over 700 exhibitors and welcome thousands of cosmetic scientists, manufacturers, brand owners, and product developers from across Asia Pacific and further afield. Now in its 16th year, in-
cosmetics Asia has tripled in size since its launch, reflecting the growing demand among R&D professionals and formulators for ingredient solutions in the region. Based on the registration alert
requests, overall demand for the show is already tracking 273% higher than at this stage in 2024. Amid market volatility and
regulatory shifts in the US, EU and China, global cosmetic brands are increasingly turning to Asia Pacific, with in-cosmetics Asia website traffic from the US, Russia and China up by 105%, 69% and 22%, respectively.
Up to 100 new exhibitors will be
joining the event, with traffic to the website’s Exhibitor Directory up by 151% compared to last year. “As beauty brands navigate
macroeconomic pressures and shifting consumer priorities, we have seen growing interest in APAC based on its agility, speed to market and endless demographic opportunities. in-cosmetics Asia 2025 will echo that momentum, not just in scale, but in how deeply we engage with the industry’s most pressing needs,” said event director Sarah Gibson. “From the rise of biotech beauty
to the growing demand for well- ageing solutions, we’re aligning our programme with the real challenges facing formulators today: matching consumer trends with
R&D capabilities, efficacy, ingredient compatibility, UV protection and more,” she added. “This year’s show will provide
attendees a platform to innovate and advance with confidence. There’s much more to come, and we look forward to revealing what’s in store!” in-cosmetics Asia will take place
from 4-6 November 2025 at BITEC, Bangkok. It will be co-located with
COSMEX, ASEAN’s leading manufacturing, packaging and OEM/ODM exhibition for personal care and dietary supplement products. For more information, visit
