About Us | Leading Korean Makeup Brush Manufacturer
Over Five Decades of Craftsmanship, Quality, & Innovation
Since its founding in 1973 as "Hyangnam Industries" in Seoul, Korea by my grandfather, HNB Corporation has evolved into a internationally recognized manufacturer of premium makeup brushes and cosmetic applicators. Today, as a proud third-generation family business, I work alongside my family and dedicated team to carry forward our founding principles: uncompromised quality, craftsmanship, and transparent partnership.
To lead global beauty trends and elevate our service standards for international B2B clients, we rebranded as HNB Corporation and re-established our headquarters in Seoul—the beauty capital of the world. Driven by our specialized Korea HNB Lab, we work hand-in-hand with professional makeup artists and cosmetic packaging designers. Utilizing advanced 3D prototyping and rapid engineering, we turn innovative concepts into market-ready beauty tools efficiently.
We believe makeup applicators are not merely functional tools, but essential instruments that unlock confidence and enhance user experience. We remain deeply grateful to our 300+ worldwide brand partners who trust us to craft products that define excellence.
