This state of the art facility includes a customer demonstration centre and is equipped with industry leading product validation and claims substantiation labs. The EMEA region is our most diverse region and we continue to work hard to understand its growing sophistication and complexities. Our Centre of Excellence in Africa, has both an efficacy and a formulation lab, with a hair salon and a temperature controlled skin and hair testing facility. Alongside our six sales offices across the Latin American region, we also have local labs in Mexico and Brazil, guaranteeing excellent service for our customers. North America has a number of manufacturing sites located across the United States, with a real focus on sustainability, in particular at our Atlas Point site.
