Beauty and personal care companies are actively reshaping portfolios to deliver game-changing inventions that consumers find irresistibly worthwhile. But in order to do so, undergoing lab transformation is fundamental. R&D organizations must centralize all lab operations on a single scientific innovation platform through digital lab technology, moving beyond the limitations of disparate point solutions.
More natural formulations, purposeful active ingredients and eco-friendly packaging represent just a few of the sought-after products for today’s beauty consumers. These examples reflect a shift toward 'health and wellness' in beauty and cosmetics products and a rising demand for more sustainable options. This global trend signals a pressing need for change, urging beauty & personal care companies to adapt quickly. To stay competitive, these companies’ R&D labs must consistently deliver meaningful innovations faster than before.

There can be many different data systems being used concurrently in a laboratory. Information management systems (LIMS), electronic lab notebooks (ELN) and laboratory execution systems (LES) are commonly used software in R&D labs. While proven useful, these tools contribute to a fragmented working environment. With the digital lab powered by the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, scientists no longer have to go through various point solutions just to record experiments and create new formulations.
Improve data management
Efficiently document scientific data and observations accessible across your network of labs
Explore existing knowledge
Conduct searches to identify similar experiments conducted by other labs to avoid costly duplication
Leverage prior test results
Rely on the outcomes of previously conducted experiments, saving time, costs and resources
Use data science and predictive modeling for virtual testing and validation, accelerating innovation to market. Enable technology to virtualy test hundreds of options in a short amount of time, enabling scientists to quickly put forward the formulations with the best chances for success.
Upgrading lab technology allows R&D leaders to leverage a unified data model, which can capture experiment context consistently, store it in a standardized format across labs and create a centralized “single source of truth” accessible by scientists anytime and anywhere. As a result, R&D scientists won’t have to create recipes from scratch each time, thus increasing efficiency in recipe development and product formulation.
In every R&D lab, managing resources and inventory levels becomes challenging when real-time visibility is lacking. To ensure a streamlined and error-free innovation process, it's crucial for labs to shift away from manual data entry.
To improve inventory management and launch new products faster, Dassault Systèmes’ digital lab solution integrates all lab functionalities on a single scientific platform, surpassing the capabilities of standalone solutions like LES, ELN and LIMS.
Navigating industry challenges is no doubt challenging. It highlights the importance of partnering with a technology enabler to stay ahead in a competitive marketplace. The key for R&D leaders to enter the new era of digital labs lies in adopting the right digital platform. Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform and its digital capabilities are designed to drive lab productivity and bring in a new era of efficiency within your R&D ecosystem. Get ready to scale the science of innovation and unleash the potential for game-changing breakthroughs with your new digital lab.
