Earlier this week, we were honored to receive a visit from Ms Soline Godet, Deputy Managing Director of Cosmetic Valley, the French perfumery and cosmetics cluster. This visit was a logical follow-up to the members’ meeting held last week in Strasbourg.
The program included a presentation of the EFI Automotive Group and our subsidiary, followed by a tour of our workshops and production lines. Our teams presented the “Flexiprod 4.0” project, an investment plan to be implemented by 2025, concerning the acceleration of the company’s digitalization and support for innovative companies. It was a very rich morning, thanks to the quality of the discussions we were able to have with Soline GODET, to whom we would like to express our sincere thanks.
For the past 2 years, our company has been a member of Cosmetic Valley, with the aim of promoting its second activity: the industrialization of innovative projects, in conjunction with start-ups.
With our partner Axandus, the industrial accelerator, we had the opportunity to turn the idea of a cosmetics start-up into reality, meeting the needs of one of the top 10 international players in the sector. The product, which will soon be available in stores, represents a minor revolution in fragrance testing.
This was an opportunity for us not only to provide the guarantees of controlled industrialization, but also to contribute to this innovation by offering a precision mini-pump that is perfectly neutral with regard to fragrance. This major project has enabled us to acquire new skills related to this buoyant sector, and we are now ready to use them for other applications.
