We manufacture what
you imagine.
AQPH turns your brand's ideas into production-ready, regulatory-compliant formulas, then manufactures them, batch after batch, out of our lab in Greenpoint.
From bench to case count.
AQPH is a working lab, not a broker. Every formula that leaves here was built and tested inside our own space at GIC Greenpoint before it ever touches a production run.
Formula Development
From concept and category brief to a stable, tested formula: surfactant systems, actives, fragrance and preservative selection, and stability testing under real-world conditions.
Contract Manufacturing
Batch production of your formula at the volumes you actually need, with consistent QC between runs; no minimums built for someone else's business.
Regulatory & Registration
MoCRA cosmetic facility registration, labeling review, and defensible claims support, including biodegradability and "clean" claims that hold up.
Packaging & Sourcing
Component sourcing and packaging selection sampled and vetted before it's specced into your run, so what you approve is what ships.
The Brand Partner Model
We work with a small number of brand partners at a time, not an open catalog. Each partner gets a category-exclusive formulation relationship; we don't build the same product for a competing brand in your category.
What's on the bench.
A working record of formulas developed and manufactured at AQPH, spanning cosmetics to home care, where chemistry is used to challenge industry standards, creating distinctive products while minimizing exposure to harmful ingredients.
R&D for brands that don't have access to a lab.
Most brands start with a product idea and a manufacturer's catalog of formulas that already exist. Without access to a lab, there's no way to develop something genuinely differentiated: the formula is fixed, and everything distinctive has to come from packaging, marketing, and positioning alone. Meanwhile, companies like P&G and Unilever build their competitive position on formulation itself, running dedicated R&D departments that develop and refine products no one else can offer.
AQPH exists to put that same capability within reach of companies that don't have the scale to build an R&D department of their own. Working with AQPH means real formulation development, from early concept through a production-ready, regulatory-compliant formula, backed by expertise in chemistry, materials engineering, and packaging. It's the difference between selecting a formula and owning one: a product built specifically around what you're trying to say, rather than adapted from something already on the shelf.
Team
Bringing past experience as a principal scientist at an industry leader, where formulas go through rigorous rounds of testing and sign-off before ever reaching a shelf. His background spans chemistry, materials engineering, and packaging: from formula stability to how a product holds up through manufacturing, shipping, and real-world use.
He founded AQPH to bring that same level of rigor to companies that move faster and leaner than a corporate R&D department ever could. The lab operates out of GIC Greenpoint in Brooklyn, taking on a limited number of partners at a time so each project gets the attention it deserves.
