Released By Comar
August 28, 2025
As “the premier supplier of glass and plastic droppers in North America,” 75-year-old Pennsylvania-based Comar prides itself on its commitment to the Personal Care and Cosmetic industries. The company’s success is evidenced by its EcoVadis Silver Medal. Capabilities include dispensing solutions, specialty and rigid plastic packaging, and end-to-end product design and development. Recently, we asked Charles Retif, Senior Global Product Manager, Comar, to highlight some of the company’s primary packaging options—from stock and made-to-order formats to fully customized designs tailored to each brand’s unique identity.
Charles Retif:Comar is a trusted leader in delivering innovative, high-quality plastic molded solutions to the Personal Care and Beauty industries. With a history of excellence spanning over 76 years, Comar has continually evolved its portfolio to meet the dynamic needs of leading brands. Our capabilities include dispensing solutions, specialty and rigid plastic packaging, and end-to-end product design and development—all backed by a strong commitment to sustainability and quality, as evidenced by our EcoVadis Silver Medal, placing us in the top 15% of companies assessed globally.
At the heart of Comar’s approach is a focus on empowering our customers to go to market faster and more effectively. We offer a broad spectrum of primary packaging options—from stock and made-to-order formats to fully customized designs tailored to each brand’s unique identity. Whether the goal is shelf differentiation, precise dosing, or a clean, user-friendly experience, Comar delivers solutions that enhance product performance and consumer satisfaction.
CR: Our dropper assemblies are a standout offering in the beauty space. As the premier supplier of glass and plastic droppers in North America, Comar operates high-speed, fully automated assembly lines that ensure consistent, premium quality at scale. With over 1,700 made-to-order dropper configurations—as well as the ability to create custom designs and decorative overshells—we provide unmatched versatility and shelf appeal for skincare, haircare, and cosmetic products.
Additionally, our jars are a popular choice for a wide range of personal care and beauty applications, including creams, lotions, gels, and putties. Designed for both function and style, our jars can be manufactured with post-consumer recycled (PCR) content upon request.
CR: Absolutely. As a U.S.-based supplier, we’re strategically positioned to support your brand’s growth. Our versatile molding technologies and in-house development capabilities make us a valuable partner in bringing new packaging ideas to market. Through our proprietary IDWorks® process, we guide projects from concept through commercialization with a focus on innovation, design, and execution.
Our industrial designers work closely with experienced tooling and process engineers to ensure that design and manufacturing considerations are addressed simultaneously. This integrated approach reduces revisions, shortens development cycles, accelerates time-to-market, and helps lower overall project costs.
CR: This year, we proudly launched our Glass Ball Tip Dropper Assemblies, designed to bring precision, elegance, and a premium touch to cosmetic and beauty products—all from a trusted U.S. supplier.
Our droppers not only enhance product application but also elevate a beauty brand’s luxury appeal. With two distinct glass ball tip designs, customizable color closures, and optional overshell, you have endless possibilities to create a unique, eye-catching packaging solution.
The introduction of our ball tip droppers builds on our recent innovations, such as the enhancement of our colored plunger selection and the strengthening of our stock dropper portfolio through the launch of a flexible mix-n-match dropper assembly program.
CR: In 2025, Comar earned the prestigious Silver Medal from EcoVadis, placing us in the top 15% of companies assessed globally. This recognition reflects our ongoing commitment to responsible business practices across key areas: Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. With over 130,000 companies evaluated, this distinction highlights Comar’s dedication to sustainability and ethical performance.
CR: Comar is committed to staying ahead of evolving regulatory requirements through a culture of continuous improvement and a proactive quality management system (QMS). Our QMS emphasizes defect prevention, customer satisfaction, and full adherence to quality and compliance standards.
Comar has achieved CE certification under the EU Medical Device Regulation (EU MDR 2017/745), reaffirming its commitment to regulatory excellence, patient safety, and market leadership. In alignment with this achievement, Comar has invested in advanced Unique Device Identification (UDI) labeling capabilities, positioning itself at the forefront of compliance and customer support.
The updated EU MDR imposes stringent requirements for traceability, including visible, legible, and indelible CE markings and UDI labeling on devices and packaging. Comar has developed robust in-house systems to ensure each product is UDI-compliant, in both Device Identifier (UDI-DI) and Production Identifier (UDI-PI) in human- and machine-readable formats.
