Baby toothpaste contract manufacturing

A cosmetics manufacturer develops and produces toothpaste for babies’ first teeth that you sell under your own brand. AIMSKINCARE writes the formula, chooses the flavor and sweetener, runs safety and stability tests, fills the tubes, and prepares the BPOM notification. Your team decides the positioning, the price, and where it is sold.

It is the brand’s decision, and both are made. Fluoride in any toothpaste is limited to 0.15 percent as fluoride, and a fluoride toothpaste for children carries the warning for ages six and under, which covers a pea-sized amount, adult supervision, and not swallowing. Many baby toothpastes are fluoride-free because babies cannot spit yet.

Yes, if the formula and the data support it. A "safe if swallowed" claim usually sits on a fluoride-free paste with food-grade flavors and sweeteners, and the safety assessment has to consider the amount a baby takes in each day. Under BPOM Regulation No. 3 of 2022, the claim cannot be printed without that support.

A typical base is water, glycerin or sorbitol, a gentle abrasive such as low-abrasion hydrated silica, a thickener such as xanthan or cellulose gum, xylitol for sweetness, a mild flavor, and a preservative permitted for young children. Some brands add calendula or chamomile extract for a soothing positioning. Each ingredient is checked against the under-three restrictions.

Sodium lauryl sulfate makes foam, and a baby has no use for foam. It can make a small child gag, and many parents avoid it for young mouths. Baby toothpastes either leave the surfactant out or use a milder one at a low level, which also keeps the taste cleaner. "SLS-free" is then a formulation fact you can print.

A clear gel uses little or no abrasive, looks gentle in the tube, and wipes away easily, which suits the first teeth. An opaque paste carries a mild abrasive and cleans a little more, which suits toddlers with more teeth. Some brands sell a gel for babies and move to a paste in their kids range.

Baby toothpaste is made for children who cannot spit, so it is often fluoride-free, low-foaming, and very mild in flavor. Kids toothpaste is for children who can brush and spit, usually contains fluoride with the age-six warning, and carries brighter fruit flavors. Many brands label the two by age, for example up to two years and two years and over.

A toothpaste is used with a finger brush or a soft brush once the first teeth are in, while a tooth spray goes straight onto teeth and gums when brushing is still hard, with no rinsing. Brands starting in baby oral care often launch the toothpaste first and add the spray as a companion in the same flavor.

Since the phase-in under Government Regulation No. 42 of 2024 ended on 17 October 2026, cosmetics sold in Indonesia must be halal certified or labeled non-halal. For a toothpaste a baby swallows, the source of the glycerin and the flavors gets the closest look. AIMSKINCARE is halal certified and prepares the halal file with the BPOM notification.

Toothpaste is a cosmetic as long as its claims stay cosmetic, such as cleaning teeth, keeping the mouth fresh, and caring for the first teeth. Antiseptic or treatment claims, such as treating the gums, move it out of cosmetics. Every claim needs supporting data under BPOM Regulation No. 3 of 2022.

Products for children under three face stricter ingredient restrictions and need a safety assessment, and a toothpaste adds the fact that it is swallowed. Some preservatives and flavor materials permitted for adults are restricted for this group. We check each formula against BPOM Regulation No. 23 of 2019 as amended by No. 17 of 2022.

A small laminated or plastic tube with a flip cap a parent can open with one thumb. A narrow nozzle helps dose a smear rather than a long stripe. A pump dispenser is an option for a larger family size. The tube material is tested against the flavor, which can migrate into some plastics over the shelf life.

The age range, fluoride or fluoride-free, gel or paste, the flavor, whether you want a "safe if swallowed" claim, a reference product, and a rough quantity. Say too whether you want ODM, a new formula, or OEM, a base we already make with your flavor and tube. The first consultation is free.
