Mauritius Cosmetics Limited (MCL)
Established in 1965, Mauritius Cosmetics Limited (MCL) was incorporated with the primary objective of producing “Blendax” toothpaste under license from Blendax Werke Germany (later acquired by Procter and Gamble USA). Over the years, MCL has continually enhanced its production capabilities through the adoption of advanced equipment and manufacturing methods. Leveraging state-of-the-art facilities and a highly skilled technical workforce, MCL achieved remarkable success, positioning Blendax as the top-selling toothpaste brand in the country.
In 2015, MCL made a strategic decision to discontinue the production of Blendax toothpaste under the P&G license and introduced a new toothpaste brand called Dentamax. Leveraging its rich experience of 50 years and a strong reputation for quality and reliability, Dentamax swiftly gained a significant market share, solidifying its position as a leading toothpaste brand in Mauritius. In addition to toothpaste manufacturing, MCL has diversified its product portfolio to include various other items.
MCL holds license for the production of furniture care products from Poliboy Werke (Germany). The company has also established a licensee partnership with Beauté Diffusion (Paris) for the production of perfumes, including Eau De Colognes and Eau de Toilettes. Expanding its manufacturing capabilities further, MCL ventured into the production of soap products and natural insect repellents.
