Commenting
Behind the scenes. At the forefront.
We're not seen on the store shelves. Instead, we enable our customers to be! Paragon Nordic is a partner that, with knowledge and commitment, develops and manufactures products that bring the end user a wow feeling.
With us, the client benefits from the capacity and stability of a large supplier combined with the personal experience of a smaller one. Each day we mix, fill, and pack hundreds of thousands of high-quality products, from cosmetics such as hair care, styling, and sun protection to others with more technical applications such as household, painting, and machine maintenance.
Our over 65 years in the industry make for a stable platform to explore new ways of creating products. In our development lab, we constantly develop new innovative concepts in close collaboration with our clients. And they don't have to be chemists, packaging specialists, or experts in legislation - we're here to support them from idea to finished product.

Sustainability and quality are essential keywords for Paragon Nordic, both in terms of how we manufacture and develop products and how they are utilized by end users, as consumer products directly impact the environment.
