Your recipe is safe with us

Your products, your intellectual property

At Labo Smeets, we decided years ago that we would act solely as a contract manufacturer. We do not intend to market our own powder based products to end-users. We treat our customers’ products and processes as confidential information. Our customers do not have to worry about competition from their supplier or about intellectual property drift.

On the other hand, at your convenience, we can help you to optimize your product in order for it to become a better powder. This can be achieved through the composition, the manufacturing method, or the choice of the packaging material. Our experience is at your disposal.
