Aircos

What they make

According to their website, Aircos Pascual is a French cosmetics manufacturer headquartered in Clichy, near Paris, that develops and produces make-up for beauty brands rather than selling its own line. Its range covers powders (loose, pressed and setting), hot-cast complexion bases such as foundations, primers, concealers and blush made with an in-house hot-pour method they call Aquastick, hot-cast lipsticks, and fluid lip items including glosses, tints and oils. It also makes fluid complexion products - liquid foundations, BB and CC creams, serums - and a waterless skincare tablet line marketed under the name BeautyTabs. The company states it turns out around 45 million units a year from a bank of roughly 450 existing formulas, and runs three manufacturing sites in France (Romorantin, Ardon and Ferrières-en-Brie), separate from its Clichy headquarters, which houses the innovation centre with about 25 R&D staff supporting projects from formulation through launch. It says it holds ISO 22716 and ISO 9001 certification plus Ecocert, and employs around 300 people in total.
