MPS International

What MPS International does

MPS International Sp. z o.o. is a privately held Polish contract manufacturer operating an integrated three-pillar production model: private-label cosmetics, plastic packaging (HDPE, PP, and PET bottles plus closures, pumps, and triggers), and professional cleaning products, all co-located at a single facility in Koszalin, Poland. The company was founded in the 1970s in Sweden as a plastic-bottle producer and was re-registered in Poland in 1991, where it expanded into formulation-driven cosmetics, multilayer packaging, and cleaning chemicals. The product portfolio spans 2,500+ developed formulations and 160 packaging designs, supporting customers across the cosmetics, medical, chemical, food, automotive, and agricultural sectors.

Production technology centers on extrusion and injection blow molding (EBM/ISBM), enabling two- and three-layer bottle constructions that incorporate up to 60% recycled content (r-PET, r-HDPE) while preserving product safety through barrier layers. Quality assurance is delivered through four dedicated in-house laboratories: incoming materials, microbiological, packaging and printing, and physicochemical control, supplemented by Hamilton-accredited migration testing and an on-site Flotator Lugan 15,000 wastewater pre-treatment plant. Multiple certifications govern the operation, including ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 22716 (GMP cosmetics), ISO 13485 (medical devices), IFS HPC, RSPO, and SMETA, with ECOCERT compliance for natural and organic cosmetics.

MPS International generates revenue through B2B contract manufacturing relationships negotiated individually with each client based on specifications, volumes, and customization. Sales are executed through Key Account Managers organized by product category and region, with a dedicated KAM for the Scandinavian cosmetics market. The company serves brands across Poland, Scandinavia, the United Kingdom, and the Benelux countries, and complements contract work with own-brand sub-lines including Solution by MPS (soaps and creams), Antiseptus (disinfectants), and Frestti (air fresheners). A small 2024 EU Re_Open UK Programme grant (197,468.37 EUR) is funding expansion into perfumes and roll-on products to mitigate Brexit-related trade frictions.
