CMI Industries: technology & beauty

For some years now CMI Industries has been going through a phase of growth and renewal, both in the technological field - thanks to the constant innovative research that is part of the firm’s DNA - as well as in its quality as a Group, in constant expansion in terms of product sectors and markets. Focus on the Beauty Tech Division and on the new brands.

The thirty years of experience that has made CMI Industries a leading light in the bottling segment, has allowed it to transfer the criteria of quality, reliability and skills adopted and certified by the most important international bodies, also in the design and making of converting and packaging systems for the cosmetics industry.
Indeed in 2014 it set up the Beauty Tech Division, a dedicated internal division, made up of a professional team of highly qualified experts that have developed for CMI solutions that are advanced from a technological point of view and, aboveall, new for the market. Hence the last edition of Cosmopack witnessed the debut of Contact (a revolutionary lipstick machine for cosmetics such as lipstick, stylò-gloss, lip-balm, foundation cream, concealer and color-stick) and Venus (suitable for processing cast cosmetics products such as mascare and also gloss and foundation cream)”.
Contact and Venus are already acclaimed successes, chosen by some of the greatest international make-up producers thanks to the versatility of the processes, to the performances that supersede traditional production standards, with a sensitivity particular to converting that optimises the quality of the end product.

And now, an eye to powders. Having hence become a successful concern and a benchmark on the subject of innovation in technological processes for the cosmetics sector, CMI Industries is further extending its range of solutions, tackling the compact powder cosmetic sector.
This has also been demonstrated this year by the company presenting another sensational preview at Cosmopack Bologna: Kameleon, a cosmetic powder dosing and compacting system for the converting and production of mono and multicolour pressed powders into godets and jars.
Kameleon introduces a concept of flexibility, both in terms of the product (mono or multi color) as well as in the production planning, thanks to its modular design and ability to implement additional modules in time.

The family grows: new offices and specialized brands
When the family gets bigger, you need more space. Thus, in 2017, CMI Industries moved to a larger site, doubling its capacity to adapt to new requirements and accommodate all the new features of the group.
It has also created two new sales offices at opposite ends of the globe: one in China, in Shanghai with dedicated on-site CMI personnel; the second in the United States, New Jersey, the result of a joint venture with Cavalla Inc., American leader for cosmetics and toiletries production and packaging equipment.
CMI Advanced. The rich and growing knowhow in cosmetics has led CMI Industries to create a new solution for the industry, making it an all-round strategic partner, able to meet the demand of flexibility typical of the cosmetics market, extremely dynamic and always looking for innovations.
Thus today, CMI Advanced - the brand created to offer innovative solutions for the cosmetics industry... has brought to market an innovative concept of final product development, from design and feasibility studies to industrialization, integrated with the design and implementation of customized equipment and machinery.
With operational headquarters in Cornegliano Laudense (Lodi), the Lombard heart of world make-up production, CMI Advanced debuted at 2017 Edition of Cosmopack and in in 2018 featured among the 20 finalists of the prestigious  Cosmopack Awards contest, where it presented Hologram Engraving Technology, a technology that creates special effects for cosmetic powders with 3D photo quality, hence achieving a truly surprising goal.

ALPHASOL, aerosol systems. In 2016 the experience of CMI Industries in the field of aerosol filling systems met the world of aerosol systems and created a new project, aimed among other things at the pharmaceutical industry, with the intention of bringing innovation and introducing new technologies to this sector, where the growth margins are still very broad. ALPHASOL is the Group brand that offers innovative systems for aerosol: previewed at the last edition of Cosmopack, by early 2018 it was among the protagonists of the international event ADF, Aerosol & Dispensing Forum in Paris.
