Dedicated beauty fulfilment with quality in mind
Fulfilment for beauty and cosmetics
Creams, serums and other cosmetic formulas can lose quality from even minor temperature fluctuations. Monta stores beauty products at a controlled temperature with limited light exposure, so active ingredients and texture stay intact until the product reaches your customer. We record the batch and lot number for every product on inbound, so if a recall happens, you can immediately trace exactly where each product ended up.
Temperature-controlled storage: Beauty products are stored at a controlled temperature to prevent quality loss from heat or cold.
Limited light exposure: Storage areas are shielded from direct light to protect light-sensitive ingredients and formulas.
Batch registration on inbound: The batch and lot number is recorded for every product, giving full traceability throughout the logistics process.
Fast product recalls: If a recall happens, affected products can be traced down to order level in just a few steps, without having to block your entire stock.
High-care zones: Valuable or sensitive products are stored in extra-secure warehouse zones with BORG risk class 4 security.
Samples, bundles and gift sets: the details are always spot on
Flexible order composition and brand experience
Beauty orders are rarely simple. Gift sets need to be put together, samples get added based on order value or campaign, and seasonal editions call for flexible packaging options. Monta handles this complexity as standard, without any extra manual work on your part. We tailor packaging to your brand identity, so every delivery looks the part for a beauty brand that wants to make an impression.
Gift sets and bundles: Monta puts together composite orders to your specifications, accurately and at scale, even for large volumes.
Sampling based on order value: Samples or promotional material are added automatically based on order value or campaign criteria.
Bespoke packaging: From simple and sustainable to a premium unboxing experience, packaging is tailored to your brand's look and feel.
Insert materials: On request, Monta adds personalised print materials, gift cards or promotional items to every order.
Seasonal editions: Limited-time product launches and seasonal editions are handled without any changes to your regular fulfilment process.
Every beauty order a brand experience, from box to door.
