[Edaily Reporter Kwon Oh Seok ] #SMCG CO.,Ltd, a global ODM (Original Design Manufacturer) company specializing in glass containers for cosmetics, has achieved its best-ever half-year results, driven by the strengthening of its portfolio focused on high-value-added products and the expansion of its overseas markets.

SMCG CO.,Ltd announced on the 10th that it recorded consolidated revenue of 32.3 billion won and operating profit of 3.0 billion won for the first half of 2026. This represents a 10.5% year-over-year increase in both revenue and operating profit. Net income for the same period stood at 2.3 billion won, demonstrating a steady improvement in profitability.
An SMCG CO.,Ltd official explained that the growth in performance was primarily driven by the strengthening of its portfolio centered on high-value-added products, the expansion of its domestic and international customer base, and improvements in production efficiency.
Revenue by product category was as follows: △colored containers (17.6 billion won), △accessories (9.3 billion won), and △transparent containers (5.5 billion won). In particular, the smooth expansion into the markets for heavyweight perfume bottles and color cosmetics containers—which have high technical barriers to entry—led to enhanced product competitiveness and diversification of the customer portfolio.
Efforts to upgrade production infrastructure to secure a foundation for future growth are also proceeding smoothly. SMCG CO.,Ltd completed the installation of a multi-production system for Line 5 and the introduction of vision inspection equipment during the first half of the year and has successfully put them into operation; the company plans to introduce additional systems for Lines 3 and 4 within the year to further enhance production process automation and quality stability. Furthermore, the company plans to finalize the implementation of a Factory Energy Management System (FEMS) to improve energy efficiency and secure a foundation for reducing manufacturing costs.
The company is also strengthening strategic partnerships to expand into overseas markets. SMCG CO.,Ltd. recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with PKG Group, a global packaging company, to establish a strategic partnership. This lays the groundwork for expanding business opportunities in the global market and securing new customers by leveraging PKG Group’s North American distribution network.
An SMCG CO.,Ltd official stated, “In the first half of the year, we were able to sustain revenue growth and improve profitability based on the expansion of high-value-added products and a stable business foundation with domestic and international clients.” The official added, “In the second half, as the benefits of investments in production innovation facilities take full effect and we continue to expand our global partnerships, we plan to further strengthen our cost competitiveness and overseas market presence to maintain our momentum of sustained growth.”
