OBI’s production, filling, and warehouse facilities are purposefully designed to optimize and streamline the manufacturing of skincare and personal healthcare products.

On-site automated bottle, jar, and tube filling systems—along with single-head manual fillers—enable us to fill a wide range of packaging formats, including bottles, jars, airless containers, and tubes. Automated labeling equipment allows for rapid and precise application of adhesive wraparound labels, ensuring efficiency, consistency, and high-quality finished products.
