The Aerosol Production Crisis:
+ 66% of contract manufacturers report 7-11 month backlogs
+ Retail penalties up to 15% for missed deadlines
+ 34% brand expansion into aerosol formats (2018-2023)
Why Brands Bring Production In-House:
1. Escape Capacity Limits - No more waiting for CM slots
2. Control Margins - Eliminate 30-50% CM markups
3. Protect IP - Secure formulations from competitors
4. Speed to Market - Launch new SKUs in weeks, not months
