As Per Website

 

Aero Pharma Group of companies was promoted by Ravi Kamat and incorporated in the year 1983. It started operations at Rabale, Navi Mumbai in 1995 and still has its Head Office at Rabale.


Over the last 21 years, it has grown to become a multi-locational, multi-product independent contract manufacturer for some of the most recognized names in India in cosmetics and personal products, like Hindustan Lever Limited, Aviance (Direct Marketing subsidiary of HLL), Avon, Oriflame, Revlon, JK Helene Curtis (Park Avenue), Gillette, Modicare, Marico, E. Merck, Godrej Sara Lee etc.


Today, Aero Pharma Group is one of the Largest Cosmetics and Toiletries Contract Manufacturing Group in India, with manufacturing spread across two entities and three locations (Aero Pharma Private Limited at Rabale and Murbad, and Aero Pharma (Silvassa) at Silvassa). Both these entities are collectively referred to herein as Aero Pharma. The total built-up area of these factories is 75,000 sq ft (5,000 at Rabale, 30,000 at Murbad and 40,000 at Silvassa). The plot size at Murbad can take a total construction of 120000 sq. ft. (11500 sq. mtr.)


Aero Pharma is probably the only company in the country that offers to its customers a wide range of products like Lipsticks, Foundations, Compact Powders, Eye Make up products, Skin Care Creams, Hair Care Creams, Lotions, Shampoos, Aerosols like Foams, Deodorants, Natural Sprays, Splash on etc. All these are packed in an array of packaging choices like bottles, jars, tubes, sachets etc. Currently, at all three plants put together, more than 1000 SKUs are manufactured every year, using more than 3,500 different items of stock.


Today, Aero Pharma is been chosen as the major contract manufacturer by Marico Limited to cater their export orders of Hair Creams and Hair Oils.


Its competence lies in the ability to handle high complexities even for relatively low volumes, at competitive rates, while maintaining the highest quality standards. Aero Pharma follows stringent quality procedures and adheres to GMP norms. Small wonder then, that any major MNC manufacturer entering India invariably shortlists Aero Pharma for consideration as a prime manufacturer and vendor.

 

Aero Pharma strongly believes that the work environment should be conducive to the workmen, the surroundings and the local regulations.


Aero Pharma has in place policies that guide each and every employee to work safely in an environment friendly manner and keep the interests and safety of the consumer in mind. Besides having inhouse Safety and GMP Manager, its plants are regularly audited for Plant and Workers’ Safety, Consumer Safety etc and have consistently scored well. This is apart from the statutory audits carried out by the respective local government audit teams.
