This event stands alone as the world’s foremost gathering for cosmetic chemists, R&D directors, and product formulators.
Rather than showcasing finished bottles on shelves, in-cosmetics Global focuses entirely on what goes inside them — active ingredients, functional raw materials, and breakthrough formulation technologies.
The 2027 Barcelona edition is expected to attract over 1,000 ingredient suppliers from every major region, alongside thousands of visitors who come specifically to solve technical challenges and discover next-generation sustainable components.
The show’s Innovation Zone and live formulation workshops are particularly prized, as they allow visitors to experiment with new materials in real time. It is often said within the industry that if you are not present here, you are effectively invisible to the global ingredient supply chain.
