28 April - 1 May
Hall 20, Booth C34

Location
The event will be held at the BolognaFiere Exhibition Centre in Bologna, Italy.
Purpose
As the supply-chain-focused sector of Cosmoprof Worldwide Bologna, the 2022 edition had several critical goals focused on the post-pandemic recovery:
- Industry Reactivation: The primary purpose was to reconnect the global beauty supply chain (raw materials, contract manufacturing, and packaging) in person to finalize production contracts for the 2023 retail cycle.
- Supply Chain Resilience: A major theme was addressing the global logistics and raw material shortages that emerged in 2021-2022. The fair served as a hub for brands to find alternative suppliers and more localized manufacturing solutions.
- Sustainability & "The Factory": The CosmoFactory project returned, demonstrating the live production of a "scandal-free" lipstick. This showcased transparency in the supply chain and emphasized clean, sustainable manufacturing processes.
- Innovation Awards: The event hosted the Cosmopack Awards, which in 2022 placed a heavy emphasis on "Eco-Design"—honoring packaging and formulations that utilized biodegradable materials and waterless technology.
