We offer a wide range of services, from managing new product development, sourcing and procurement of raw materials and packaging to a total manufacturing solution. CW Pharmaceuticals was established in the late 90's as a small manufacturing entity with the sole purpose of developing and manufacturing Placecol skin care products. By implementing the same meticulous approach to quality and service that CW is still known for today, the products that came off CW's production line drummed its way onto South-African retail shelves and beauty salons nationwide. The success experienced by CW Pharmaceuticals soon forced them to expand when the company was moved to Gauteng during 1999. The company started investing in suitable equipment and well-trained staff to enable it to compete in the contract manufacturing arena and expanded business operations to support the growing production facility. Clients who wanted to produce private brands to retail both locally and internationally soon knocked on CW's door as they were after the same particular service and quality that CW is so known for. Since then, CW Pharmaceuticals has expanded to proudly serve numerous clients and has built reputation as a premium contract manufacturer of cosmetics and personal care products. The company moved into its new facilities in Sunderland Ridge, Centurion, during 2008 providing more room for storage and production which clients regularly require. Our current location also provides good transport links as it is close to main freeways making it easy for our customers and suppliers to reach us quickly.
