Claunel Massies, President of Réseau Mesure, and Christophe Masson, Managing Director of Cosmetic Valley, met at the in-Cosmetics Global Paris trade show on April 16 to sign an agreement enabling the two associations to implement joint or cross-fertilization initiatives on behalf of their members.
Cosmetic Valley brings together, coordinates and supports companies, research centers, universities and schools in the French perfume and cosmetics industry. Réseau Mesure, a network of 215 companies in the fields of measurement, control, calibration and instrumentation, supports the development of its members by offering shared, value-added solutions.
The two organizations have already identified a number of common themes, and several initiatives have already been launched. Members of both organizations can benefit from training courses offered by the two clusters, and take part in meetings and workshops based on a jointly-defined program and topics.
In 2025, several members of the Réseau Mesure and Cosmetic Valley will be taking part in the Comet (COsmetic MEasurement & Testing) congress, the event dedicated to Tests and Measurements in the cosmetics sector organized by Cosmetic Valley and CY Cergy Paris Université, as well as the Cosmetic 360 trade show.
The aim is also to work more closely with other regions, notably the Paris region and the Centre Val de Loire. The next project will be dedicated to the Beauty Hub, a program that organizes actions to develop innovation and technology transfer in the industrial world of cosmetics manufacturing.
Several technologies offered by Réseau Mesure members address product quality and production issues in the cosmetics industry, such as color processing, leak detection, physico-chemical analysis and 3D measurement.
This synergy will benefit companies in terms of both economic and sustainability issues, with associations such as Réseau Mesure and Cosmetic Valley playing an information and awareness-raising role.
Réseau Mesure and Cosmetic Valley implement concrete actions for the benefit of their members. As major players in economic development, in partnership with local authorities, they seek to promote growth and innovation, and contribute to the international influence of French industry.
