- Genic Co., Ltd. is a South Korea-based cosmetic research, development, and manufacturing company primarily engaged in the original equipment manufacturing (OEM) and original design manufacturing (ODM) of skincare, hydrogel mask packs, and personal care products. Founded in 2001 and headquartered in Seoul, South Korea, with core production facilities in Nonsan, South Chungcheong Province, the company is listed on the KOSDAQ market of the Korea Exchange under the ticker symbol 123330. Genic operates across two primary business divisions: OEM/ODM contract manufacturing services for third-party domestic and multinational beauty brands, and the development, marketing, and distribution of proprietary consumer cosmetic brands.
The company offers a comprehensive range of beauty and personal care products across multiple specialized categories: hydrogel and sheet mask systems, including temperature-sensitive water-soluble hydrogel facial masks, hydrogel under-eye patches, soothing spot patches, bio-cellulose sheet masks, microfiber sheet masks, modeling masks, and transdermal micro-needle patch formulations; basic and functional skincare treatments, comprising deep-hydration ampoules, anti-aging serums, brightening essences, facial toners, emulsions, barrier creams, and eye creams; sun care and specialty protection products, encompassing UV-blocking sun cushions, sun creams, cooling sun gels, and hydrogel outdoor sport sun patches; cleansing and personal care solutions, including foam cleansers, cleansing oils, micellar waters, body lotions, body washes, hand creams, and hair care formulations; and proprietary brand offerings, marketed under commercial labels such as Celderma, Celderma Daily, and Purebess across television home shopping networks, online retail platforms, duty-free outlets, and beauty specialty stores. The company maintains domestic operations and international facilities, including a manufacturing subsidiary in Shanghai, China, catering to distribution networks across South Korea, China, North America, Europe, Southeast Asia, and Japan.
In recent developments, Genic Co., Ltd. has expanded its international OEM and ODM supply partnerships to satisfy accelerating global demand for hydrogel-based skincare and sun-protection patches across North American and European retail markets. The company has executed operational and technological upgrades at its Nonsan manufacturing complex, expanding cleanroom infrastructure and automating hydrogel production lines to increase manufacturing capacity and improve operational cost efficiencies. Additionally, Genic has advanced its research and development initiatives toward the commercialization of eco-friendly, biodegradable hydrogel sheet materials and active-ingredient delivery systems, while restructuring its sales distribution strategy to prioritize high-margin cross-border e-commerce and direct-to-consumer global channels.
