Kolmar Korea has been chosen by South Korea’s Ministry of Trade, Industry, and Energy (MOTIE) to lead the cosmetics sector in the country’s AI Factory Alliance initiative – a national project designed to transform traditional manufacturing into AI-driven innovation hubs.
As the only cosmetics company selected, Kolmar will develop a fully autonomous production system that uses AI across every stage – from formulation and filling to packaging and quality control. The project runs from September 2025 through December 2029, aiming for more than 95% process accuracy and greater production flexibility for customized beauty solutions.
Building on its smart-factory success, which reduced defect rates by 42%, Kolmar plans to expand its AI model globally – reaching facilities in the U.S., Canada, and China, as well as its health supplement and pharmaceutical divisions.
This milestone reinforces Kolmar’s role as a leader in digital transformation, setting new standards for efficiency, precision, and innovation in K-beauty manufacturing.
