Stafford
Cosmetic Chemist
Hi, I'm Peter Stafford MRSC FRPS.
Having worked with some illustrious cosmetic companies during the past 40 years or so, I am now entering a new phase as a consultant within the cosmetic industry and am currently welcoming any enquiries from prospective customers requiring product development and subsequent manufacture.
A little bit of history about myself doesn't go amiss; at the beginning of my career journey I was employed as a process operator and studied for my qualifications part-time on day release. In time I became an R&D Manager and Manufacturing Manager, working with such giants as John Frieda, Jo Malone, and Anita Roddick at the Body Shop.
I really enjoy the involvement and pleasure one gets when your efforts are rewarded with your products seen in the marketplace.
Currently I have access to a fully equipped cosmetic laboratory where I produce many lab-scale innovative products. The laboratory is adjacent to a manufacturing facility which is fully equipped for small to medium runs for bottles, jars, tubes and sachet filling.
