A leading cosmetic manufacturer was riding high on the success of a new lip stain product—an ultra-popular formula delivering long-lasting color. But the surge in demand quickly turned into a production challenge. Their existing low-speed prop mixer couldn’t keep up, taking over three hours to produce a single 500-gallon (or 1,892 liter) batch. Worse, trying to speed up mixing only led to inconsistent results and poor product quality.
The Challenge: Inconsistent and Slow Mixing
Despite high demand, their mixing process couldn’t scale. With vital colorants and active ingredients requiring long hydration and dispersion times, the team faced an urgent need for faster, more efficient high shear mixing.
If they couldn’t meet production targets, they risked losing market share to competitors.
The Solution: Rotosolver® High Shear Mixer and Disperser
Admix stepped in with the Rotosolver RS-02, a hygienic high shear mixer and disperser designed specifically for challenging applications in the personal care and cosmetics industry. Built for vigorous mixing, the Rotosolver provides consistent emulsification, particle reduction, and powder induction—ideal for processing gums, colorants, and active ingredients.
Results:
✅ Complete batch mixed in under 30 minutes
✅ Superior dispersion of pigments and powders
✅ Improved consistency and product quality
