Tailored offer for customers in the Middle East

The producers of the Polish cosmetics sector are among the most versatile in Europe. Polish companies supply cosmetics across virtually all categories. Polish hair, foot and hand care products, perfumes, deodorants and cleansing products, but also speciality products and dermocosmetics are distributed worldwide.

Such versatility requires an excellent understanding of local characteristics and customer needs. With Middle Eastern consumers in mind, Polish laboratories are developing skin whitening products, breathable nail polish and other products that meet halal standards. The Polish offer is tailor-made to meet all the needs of the most demanding customers.

Growing popularity in the United Arab Emirates

We are proud to see how much trust cosmetics made in Poland enjoy in the Middle East. Customers appreciate our tailor-made offering and are increasingly eager to use it. This is thanks to maintaining the highest quality and performance standards, but also to an in-depth understanding of the characteristics of the market. The Middle East is a highly demanding market that opens only to manufacturers delivering products of the highest quality - a standard that Polish cosmetics successfully meet. But quality alone is not all. A flexible approach to production and openness to customer needs are the deciding factors. Today, we can confidently say that we produce tailor-made cosmetics for Arab consumers - says Justyna Żerańska, PhD Eng., Director General of the Polish Union of the Cosmetics Industry.

International recognition

The worldwide success of the Polish cosmetics industry is the result of a combination of years of tradition and experience and continuous development. Polish producers combine nature's resources with modern technologies to create unique formulations. Thanks to their passion, experience and a professional approach, they create world-class products that meet the most stringent European standards. This makes Polish cosmetics a hit in many countries, where they win the hearts of discerning consumers.
