Scalp Treatment Manufacturer Australia
Australian scalp treatment manufacturer. Exfoliating tonics, soothing serums, oil-control treatments and density-support formats made in Melbourne.
Epilab manufactures scalp treatments for Australian hair care brands. Exfoliating tonics, soothing serums, oil-control treatments, anti-itch and density-support positioning.
All scalp treatments made in Melbourne. Custom formulation, private label and white label under one roof. Scalp care has grown into a major hair-adjacent category and many brands are launching scalp-specific SKUs to extend their range.
What we make
Scalp tonics (water-thin, applied directly to scalp), scalp serums (medium viscosity, applied with applicator nozzle), and scalp masks (treatment-grade emulsions, applied as pre-shampoo or in-shower treatment). Positioning ranges across exfoliating, soothing, oil-control, sensitive-scalp, and density-support.
Three ways to launch a scalp treatment
Custom formulation
Custom scalp treatments are formulated around the target outcome (exfoliation, soothing, oil-control, density). Active selection varies significantly. Six to twelve weeks. MOQ starts at 500 units.
Private label
Private label scalp treatments use our existing library across the three main formats. Three to six weeks.
White label
White label scalp treatments ready to ship with your label. Two to four weeks.
Minimum order quantities
Scalp tonic and serum MOQ starts at 500 units for spray, dropper and pump formats. Treatment-mask scalp products in jars start at 500. Tube-packaged scalp products start at 3,000 units.
Formulation considerations
Scalp formulation differs from hair-shaft formulation because the scalp is skin, not hair. Skincare actives are common: salicylic acid for exfoliation, niacinamide for soothing, panthenol for barrier support, caffeine and peptides for density-support claims. We treat scalp products as a hybrid between skincare and hair care, with skincare-grade attention to preservative system, pH and irritation potential.
Cost transparency
Scalp treatment unit cost is driven by actives. Treatments with multiple skincare-grade actives sit at the upper end. Simple soothing tonics sit at the lower end.
