Quick Answer / Industry Snapshot: What kind of warehouse is required for cosmetics and personal care storage in India? Beauty and cosmetics products need clean, dry, pest-controlled facilities with temperature and humidity control (typically 15°C to 25°C), batch and expiry-level traceability, and FEFO (First Expired, First Out) inventory discipline. Cosmetics are regulated under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940 and the Cosmetics Rules, 2020, with Legal Metrology and BIS requirements applying to labelling and certain products. Flammable items such as aerosols, alcohol-based perfumes and nail polish must be stored in segregated, fire-protected zones as per local fire and explosives norms.
