Do I need a packaging partner or a cosmetic laboratory?
For a private-label or contract-filled product, separate the packaging brief from the formulation and filling work. Link coordinates bottles, jars, pumps, closures, cartons and rigid boxes around your requirements. Keep formulation and filling with your laboratory or filler, including approval of product compatibility, sealing and filling-line performance. Share that team’s packaging requirements so components and samples can be coordinated before production.
How should we choose bottles, jars, pumps or closures for skincare packaging?
Begin with the intended fill volume, how the product will be used, and the requirements supplied by your laboratory or filler. Include a reference component or dimensions, the desired dispensing action and decoration. Evaluate the complete container-and-closure combination with the actual product before approving production; appearance alone does not establish compatibility, sealing or dispensing performance.
Do we need primary packaging, secondary packaging or both?
Primary packaging is the bottle, jar, tube or other component that contains the product. Secondary packaging is the outer carton, rigid box or presentation set. Start with approved primary-component dimensions before finalizing the outer structure or insert. If your laboratory already supplies the filled container, share its specifications so Link can scope the outer packaging separately rather than duplicate components you already have.
Can Link coordinate with our laboratory?
Yes. Link can collect packaging requirements, provide samples and available component information, and coordinate delivery with your laboratory or filler. Your laboratory or filler remains responsible for compatibility, sealing and filling-line testing and approval before production.
Do you provide graphic design or branding?
Branding is not a core Link service. We can coordinate with your designer, provide dielines and support artwork preparation for production.
Can you support a new beauty brand?
Yes. Link works with both developing and established brands and can help a new company navigate packaging, sampling and production decisions.
What should I prepare before starting a beauty packaging project?
Send your product category and fill size, component or package dimensions if known, reference photos or samples, quantity per item, decoration requirements, delivery location and target date. Include your laboratory or filler’s packaging requirements when available. Missing details can be clarified before a quotation is finalized; an early concept is enough to start the conversation.
What minimum quantity and lead time should I expect?
Minimum quantities and timing depend on the component, material, decoration, tooling and order size. Share your requirements so Link can confirm the applicable quantity, sample stages, production timing and delivery basis for your project. A target date is a planning input, not a confirmed delivery commitment.
