As part of a four-year strategy that began in 2000, Nina Ricci (Puig) is relaunching its colour cosmetics line. The new line 'Pret-à-Porter de Peau', which includes both colour and skin care, is to replace the 'Teint Ricci' line.

Toly Products won the contract to supply all the compacts for this new cosmetics line. A play on textiles and textures, the new line draws on the brand's couturier image.

The compacts are moulded in PCTA, a special resin produced by Eastman. The outer mouldings are silk- screen printed with a white matt UV ink.

Toly are very proud to have developed this new line for Nina Ricci and have invested in a completely automated assembly line to retain the quality and consistency of the assembly process.

Toly products have been producing luxury packaging for the leading cosmetic companies since the early Seventies and the company prides itself on its high quality and innovative approach. Nina Ricci joins Toly's ever expanding customer base which includes other premium brands such as Chanel, Estee Lauder, Givenchy and Elizabeth Arden.

While Toly has an international network of alliance partners, the company is committed to manufacturing in Malta and working closely with the MDC to develop cosmetic production as a niche market for Malta.

For industry, Malta's primary resource is its people and Toly believes that by harnessing the creative spirit, the ambition to succeed and the natural pride and commitment of its staff, it will continue to prosper in the international marketplace.
