Companies, brands, specializations and localization of production

Industry overview | October 2026

Executive summary

13 companies. This review covers a selected group of manufacturers of household chemicals and related products, mainly from Tashkent and Tashkent Region. It is not an exhaustive industry register.

24 brand names. This is the number of brands listed for the selected companies, not a measure of the total number of brands in Uzbekistan.

Different business models. A company may operate in mass-market household chemicals, cosmetics, professional products and contract manufacturing simultaneously.

New production sites. GRASS household and automotive chemicals are confirmed to be manufactured in Chirchiq. Unigroup Navoiy has shipped cosmetics; the reviewed publications do not establish actual output at the Henkel and new Tashkent projects. [17] [18] [19] [20]

Limits of comparison. Comparable public data on market shares, actual output volumes and profitability are insufficient for most companies.

1. Introduction and scope

Uzbekistan's domestic household chemicals sector includes producers of everyday detergents, professional cleaning chemicals, cosmetics and personal-care products. A single manufacturer may cover several categories and sell products under multiple brands.

The purpose of this review is to build a verifiable directory of selected companies, their brands and product ranges, identify differences in specialization and distinguish operating production sites from announced projects. The unit of analysis is the company: a brand is not automatically a separate manufacturer.

Inclusion requires publicly available information on manufacturing, products or links to brands. Sources include company websites, industry directories, registration records and official announcements. A company's registration year should not be treated as the year manufacturing actually began.

2. Manufacturer directory

The following 13 companies are listed alphabetically. Specializations overlap, and the listed brands are not necessarily manufactured entirely at facilities owned by the trademark holder.

Company	Brands	Product range	Characteristics / source
BIO-COSMETICS	BAW	Hygiene products, antiseptics, liquid soap and shampoos	Cosmetics and hygiene; registered in 2013 [07]
BUMA	Biolex, Yuventa Lux, Aliya Premium	Cosmetics, soap, laundry gels and liquid detergents	Multi-category producer [01]
HAYAT COSMETIC	Hayat	Hair care, hygiene products and selected cleaning products	Multi-category business; Tashkent [08]
MEGA UNI WASH	Uni Wash, Tilda, IMPEX, Nasim, Daff	Laundry powders, bleaches and cleaning products	Multiple brands; established in 2014 [04]

TURK.UZ	ALPER	Household detergents and cleaning products	ALPER brand [15]

Foundation and registration years come from company materials or registries and have not all been checked against official extracts. The year for ROSE DIAMOND is omitted because available records disagree. A legal or contact address does not necessarily identify the production site.

3. Brief company profiles

The connection with Donya is supported by trademark records. Its starting year is omitted because public databases show conflicting dates. [14]

TURK.UZ

Markets household detergents under ALPER. Statements about the technologies used are provided by the company itself. [15]

4. Foreign participation and local production

Operating facilities, first commercial shipments and announced investment plans must be distinguished. The statuses below reflect information available in October 2026.

Site / source	Status	Products	Confirmed facts / plans
BCG GROUP OZ / GRASS, Chirchiq [16] [17]	Operating; opened in November 2024	Household, automotive and professional cleaning chemicals	2025 output: UZS 176 billion; exports: USD 2.6 million; over 80 product types. Project investment: USD 6 million.
Unigroup Navoiy, Navoi Region [18]	First shipment on 22 Sep 2026; 3 of 7 lines operating	First batch: hair-care products	Over 25,000 units shipped. Investment: USD 60 million; design capacity up to 85 million units annually. Production of household detergents is not confirmed.
Henkel, Angren Free Economic Zone [19]	Acquisition of a facility announced	Product range at the site not specified	Plans for local production and CIS deliveries reported; actual production volume not disclosed.
Household chemicals project in Tashkent [20]	Project announcement, September 2026	Liquid laundry detergents, cleaners, soap and hygiene products	30-hectare site; around 50,000 tonnes and 110 million units are planned figures, not verified output.

The 2025 BCG GROUP OZ figures were published on the President of Uzbekistan's official website on 2 June 2026. Unigroup Navoiy's first shipment consisted of cosmetics; household detergent production remains unconfirmed.

5. Findings from the comparison

Several overlapping operating models can be identified. This describes the selected companies rather than ranking them.

Business model / area	Examples from the sample
Multiple product categories	BUMA, HAYAT COSMETIC, NATURAL BEAUTY, TUBEX
Multi-brand portfolio	BUMA, MEGA UNI WASH, TUBEX
Narrow product specialization	MONSTER (specific contaminants), BIO-COSMETICS (hygiene and antiseptics)
Household and professional lines	PROTECTION COSMETICS; Natural Beauty (according to the company)
Contract manufacturing	PROTECTION COSMETICS
Packaging manufacturing alongside consumer products	TUBEX
Foreign-linked and developing projects	BCG GROUP OZ (GRASS); Unigroup Navoiy and Henkel as related or developing projects (section 4)

The clearest differences concern product categories, number of brands and additional manufacturing activities. Published data do not support ranking the companies by sales, output or profitability.

1. A trademark is not the same as a manufacturer: 24 brand names appear against 13 selected companies. These figures do not describe the entire market.

2. Companies differ in product categories and additional activities, including cosmetics, professional chemicals, contract manufacturing and packaging.

3. Among the reviewed foreign-linked projects, GRASS in Chirchiq has confirmed output of household and automotive chemicals. For the other projects, evidence of such output is unavailable or relates to different products.

6. Conclusion and data limitations

The sample illustrates the variety of Uzbekistan's manufacturers, from everyday detergent producers to businesses combining cosmetics, professional chemicals and packaging. Announced capacity at new sites must not be confused with actual production.

This is an information-based review of 13 selected companies, not a statistical estimate of Uzbekistan's entire market. Brand and product information comes from public catalogs and may change; some capacity and export figures are self-reported.

Future updates should widen geographic coverage and verify legal entities, trademark holders, production sites and current product ranges.
