CTK established CTK OTC LABORATORIES to swiftly meet the diverse needs of U.S. consumers. The facility, which combines specialized equipment with R&D expertise from our Korean headquarters, provides a stable system for producing and supplying high-quality, safe OTC products. By managing the entire process—from development to distribution—locally, we maximize efficiency and speed-to-market, strengthening our global position.

Following 2017, CTK was again honored at the 56th Taxpayer’s Day Ceremony in 2022. This recognition affirms our continuous commitment to transparent management and ethical tax practices. As a trusted corporate citizen, we remain dedicated to fulfilling our social responsibilities and contributing to the national economy.

We officially changed our name from CTK Cosmetics to CTK, signaling a bold expansion beyond the beauty sector. By entering industries such as biodegradable materials, fulfillment, and e-commerce, we established a robust foundation for sustainable growth. We continue to strengthen our position as a comprehensive global enterprise.

Leveraging 20+ years of expertise, CTK launched CTKCLIP.COM, a digital platform driving innovation in the beauty industry. As a leading B2B platform, it connects global businesses to develop and launch products with greater speed and flexibility. We have built a digital ecosystem that simplifies collaboration between partners and customers.

CTK established CTK BIO CANADA to develop innovative, bio-based materials applicable across multiple industries. We research biodegradable alternatives to plastics, offering practical solutions like eco-friendly straws and cutlery. As a responsible enterprise, we continue to expand our sustainable products for both industrial and everyday use.

CTK completed its state-of-the-art headquarters in Seocho, Seoul, to strengthen its global operational competitiveness. This new HQ features an optimized work environment and advanced infrastructure designed to maximize employee potential. It serves as a strong foundation for our future growth and reinforces our global capabilities.

Recognizing the potential of global e-commerce, CTK incorporated CTK E-Vision Networks, a specialist in cross-border commerce. The affiliate provides tailored solutions for online sales and marketing, optimized for overseas consumers. Leveraging deep insights into global marketplaces, we actively support our clients' successful international expansion.

CTK firmly established itself as a leading export-driven company by achieving a cumulative export volume of USD 100 million. This milestone solidified our position as a recognized industry leader and led to our successful listing on the KOSDAQ market. This achievement marked a turning point in our journey as a global beauty pioneer.

To expand our global reach, we strategically established CTK USA, a fulfillment center located in Los Angeles. The center significantly improved customer service levels through optimized inventory management and rapid delivery. We provide tailored, end-to-end fulfillment services from the production facility to the customer’s doorstep.

It remains a key milestone in our commitment to building trust with society and our global partners.

CTK earned the INNO-BIZ certification, recognizing our strong technological innovation and future growth potential. This validates our capacity for continuous R&D excellence and our ability to lead the global beauty market with proprietary technologies. This certification further strengthens our foundation as a trusted and competitive global partner.

We solidified our identity as a specialized cosmetics enterprise by rebranding from CMI Tega Korea to CTK Cosmetics. This strategic move aimed to clarify our market presence and emphasize our deep expertise in beauty development and brand consulting. The new name reflects our commitment to providing clear, professional value to our global clients.

CTK evolved from a packaging specialist into a global full-service beauty enterprise by pioneering integrated services across R&D, design, and logistics. This transformation was made possible by our legacy of experience and close collaboration with numerous global clients. Today, we lead the industry through partnerships with over 300 global collaborators and research institutes.

CTK began as CMI Tega Korea, founded on deep expertise in high-quality cosmetic packaging solutions. By exporting premium Korean components to the world, we took our first steps as a global enterprise. Identifying unmet market needs, we leveraged our R&D capabilities to transition from an exporter to a manufacturer of innovative packaging.

Building on a decade of strong manufacturing capabilities in Korea, Taega Trading launched its full-scale overseas expansion in 1990. This was a strategic challenge to prove our technical strength and competitiveness on the global stage. During this period, we actively established international networks, laying the essential groundwork for our future growth.

CTK traces its roots back to 1979 with the establishment of Taega Trading, founded by the father of CEO Ian Chung. The company earned early recognition for its superior quality in aluminum containers, which were essential to the Korean cosmetics industry. Taega Trading’s commitment to quality control built the solid foundation upon which CTK stands today.
