Kolmar Korea Holdings said Tuesday that its subsidiary, Kolmask, acquired Jayjun Cosmetic to expand its annual mask pack production capacity to 400 million sheets. Financial terms were not disclosed. Jayjun Cosmetic, which has a plant in the western port city of Incheon, has a distribution network in China.
Sheet face masks are developed to deliver the essences that contain cosmetic substances using various fabric bases. According to a market report published by Transparency Market Research, the global sheet face mask market is expected to reach $551.3 million by 2026.
The Asia Pacific region saw rapid growth, mainly due to growing demands for beauty products and personal care products.
