Inward & Inspection
Batch-wise receipt, damage checks and same-day system entry for every consignment received from your plant or import point.
The beauty and skincare industry has grown rapidly in recent years, and brands place great importance on maintaining a strong, polished image. Because beauty products are inherently fragile, protective packaging is essential — spills and breakages are simply not an option. Singhania Logistics handles every aspect of a manufacturer's needs, from transportation to the warehousing and distribution of cosmetics.
Balancing supply and demand is a constant challenge in the cosmetics industry. Most inventory is stored securely in warehouses before making its way to the retail floor, and moving products efficiently to the point of sale requires careful planning and continuous effort.
Controlled storage, accurate fulfilment and dependable distribution built around the special handling needs of beauty products.
Batch-wise receipt, damage checks and same-day system entry for every consignment received from your plant or import point.
FEFO picking, near-expiry alerts and batch-wise records that support audits, recalls and healthy sell-through.
Order processing, invoicing, e-way bills, GST-compliant paperwork and MIS reporting in your preferred format.
Secondary MRP and importer labelling with Legal Metrology-compliant packaging support wherever required.
Planned dispatches to distributors, super stockists, modern trade and e-commerce channels through our transport network.
In addition to storage services, we emphasize secure transport and timely delivery of products. Our logistics systems ensure safe handling of cargo and prompt delivery, whether you need bulk loads or individual shipments. With our extensive experience in managing cosmetics logistics and distribution, you can minimize losses, maximize your company's efficiency, and consistently keep your products available in the market.
Singhania Logistics is dedicated to offering cosmetic and skincare companies top-notch, cost-effective, and customized services. Whether you're looking for CFA services in India, warehousing options for beauty products close to home, or complete logistics and shipping solutions for your skincare brand, we're here to help.
Most beauty products stay stable between 15°C and 25°C with relative humidity between 40% and 60%. Our monitored warehouses keep each category within its safe band, even through Indian summers.
| Product Category | Safe Storage Range | Risk If Exceeded |
|---|---|---|
| Skincare (creams, lotions, serums) | 15°C–25°C | Active ingredients lose effectiveness and emulsions can separate. |
| Lipsticks & balms | Below 25°C (soften near 30°C) | Melting can permanently alter texture. |
| Liquid foundations & concealers | 15°C–25°C | Separation, colour and consistency changes. |
| Fragrances & perfumes | 10°C–21°C, away from light | Top notes evaporate and the scent profile changes. |
| Haircare (shampoos, conditioners) | 5°C–29°C | Consistency changes from freezing or overheating. |
| Powders & compacts | Below 25°C, RH under 60% | Clumping, mould and bacterial growth in humid air. |
Growing beauty brands need order-level accuracy under the same temperature discipline as bulk distribution. Our shared model lets you start small and scale without changing partners.
Our temperature-regulated CFA operations are based in Okhla Industrial Estate, New Delhi, close to major beauty retail and wholesale markets and directly connected to the national highway network.
From multinational brands seeking a North India CFA to D2C businesses needing Delhi NCR fulfilment, the same experienced team and systems support every stage of growth.
A CFA (Carrying & Forwarding Agent) is a logistics partner appointed by a cosmetics brand to receive stock from the factory, warehouse it under the right storage conditions, and forward it to distributors, super stockists, retailers, or e-commerce channels as per the brand's dispatch instructions. The CFA does not buy or own the goods — it manages storage, handling, order processing, dispatch documentation, and compliance on the brand's behalf for a service fee. Singhania Logistics has operated as a CFA for Indian and multinational brands since 1962.
Most cosmetics and skincare products stay stable between 15°C and 25°C with relative humidity held between 40% and 60%. Heat-sensitive items need tighter control: lipsticks and balms begin to soften near 30°C, and actives like vitamin C and retinol degrade faster at higher temperatures. Our temperature-controlled warehouses maintain these ranges 24/7 with continuous monitoring, so formulations don't separate, melt, or lose potency in storage.
Indian summers routinely cross 40°C — well above the safe range for lipsticks, creams, serums, and fragrances. The only reliable protection is an unbroken temperature-controlled chain: climate-controlled warehousing, insulated or refrigerated vehicles for dispatch, and minimal dock-time exposure during loading and unloading. Singhania Logistics combines temperature-controlled CFA warehousing with its own cold chain transport fleet, so products stay within range from inward to final delivery.
A CFA stores and forwards goods on the brand's behalf without taking ownership, earning a fixed fee or commission. A super stockist or distributor purchases stock from the brand and resells it to retailers or sub-distributors in a territory, earning a trading margin. Brands typically use a CFA as the regional warehousing and dispatch hub that feeds their distributor and super stockist network.
Yes. You don't need container-load volumes to work with us — we support growing D2C skincare and cosmetics brands with shared temperature-controlled space, pay-for-what-you-use storage, and order-level fulfilment for marketplace and website orders. As volumes grow, the same setup scales into dedicated space and full CFA distribution without switching partners.
Cosmetics carry batch numbers, manufacturing dates, and use-by periods, so stock must move on FEFO (First-Expiry-First-Out) rather than simple FIFO. Our warehouse management tracks every batch from inward to dispatch, flags near-expiry stock in advance, and maintains batch-wise records for recalls and audits — protecting both compliance and sell-through.
Yes — humidity above roughly 60% RH encourages mould and bacterial growth, clumps powder products, and can compromise packaging seals, while very dry air can destabilise some emulsions. That's why our cosmetics warehousing controls humidity alongside temperature, holding storage areas in the 40–60% RH band with continuous monitoring.
Costs depend on space occupied, storage conditions (ambient vs temperature-controlled), order volumes, value-added services like labelling or kitting, and the distribution coverage you need. CFA arrangements are typically structured as a monthly fee or a percentage of throughput. Share your SKU count, volumes, and channels with Singhania Logistics and we'll prepare a customised quote.
