Grupo P I Mabe was acquired by the Ontex Group in 2015 and became part of one of the largest manufacturers of personal hygiene products in the world, with sales in more than 110 countries and with 20 manufacturing plants in 14 countries. Ontex Mexico’s well-known brands include bbtips Sensitive, Bio Baby, Kiddies Antifugas, Chicolastic Classic, Affective and Fiore.
From the onset, Ontex Mexico has displayed a strong focus on technology and innovation. It has obtained over 200 patents and has 43 patents pending. This strength increased after the company joined the Ontex Group, when it gained access to a network of seven research and development centres in Europe and the Americas and to one of the most experienced research and development teams in the industry.
Ontex Mexico is now led by Richard Halbinger who has spent his entire professional career within the company. One of Halbinger's achievements was the launch of Bio Baby, the first environment friendly brand of baby diapers in the Latin-American market. Since its launch, Bio Baby has saved 10 thousand tonnes of unfriendly waste.

We are proud to celebrate this today, and will build on the strong foundations put in place over the past 40 years.” said Halbinger, managing director of Ontex Mexico.
