Every day, millions of Malaysians reach for everyday essentials that are
part of their daily routines – from the toothbrush that starts the morning and
the body wash that refreshes after a long day, to the hand wash in the kitchen,
beauty tools on the vanity and travel essentials packed for every journey.
Recognising the important role they play in everyday life, guardian,
Malaysia’s No. 1 Health & Beauty Retailer*, today launched the new mannings
guardian range – a comprehensive collection of quality everyday essentials
designed to help Malaysians care for themselves and their families with
confidence.
The launch brings together the strengths of guardian, which has
served Malaysian communities for nearly 60 years and mannings, Hong
Kong’s leading health and beauty retailer with decades of expertise in
developing trusted own-brand products.
Together, the two brands have created a range that combines quality,
innovation and value across categories including personal care, bath care, oral
care, beauty accessories and household essentials.
‘Gold standard’ own brand that offers real, great quality
The mannings guardian own brand range has been crafted with care.
Fann Yuen, DFI’s Group Own Brand Director, who leads the
co-creation process said,
“We have a comprehensive 20-step quality assurance process, covering
supplier selection, manufacturing, product safety, quality control and
performance evaluation before reaching store shelves. In addition, this range
is:
- Dermatologically-tested
- Developed following clean beauty principles
- Not tested on animals
- Tested and approved by real consumers
These rigorous standards reflect guardian’s commitment to
offering products that customers can use with confidence every day.”
The mannings guardian range won Brand Transformation of the Year
– Malaysia at the Retail Asia Awards 2026 highlighting a strong recognition
from retail industry experts of the brand’s blend of quality, innovation and
everyday value to shoppers. Additionally, its Cherry Blossom Wet Wipes, UV
Sunscreen Lotion and Soft Face Towel had also been recognised in the Monde
Selection 2026 in Paris.
“At guardian, trust is at the heart of everything we do. The
products we bring into our customers’ homes are products we stand behind
ourselves. By combining guardian’s understanding of Malaysian consumers
with mannings’ product development expertise, we’ve created a range that
delivers the quality, innovation and value our customers expect from us,” said Anna
Ng, Marketing Director of guardian Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei
Supporting everyday wellness
The mannings guardian range has been thoughtfully developed to
support Malaysians through the moments that matter – from morning routines and
family care to travel and everyday wellbeing.
More than simply expanding guardian’s product offering, the
launch reflects the company’s continued commitment to making quality health,
wellness and personal care solutions more accessible to everyone.
It also supports guardian’s vision of becoming Malaysia’s Trusted
Advisor for Wellness, empowering customers with trusted products, expert
advice and solutions that help them make informed choices for healthier
living.
Experience the House of mannings guardian
To celebrate the launch, guardian has transformed Sunway Pyramid into the House of mannings guardian – an immersive experience inspired by the everyday spaces where these products become part of people’s lives.
“We believe the products we use every day deserve the same attention to
quality as any premium product. Our ambition is for the mannings guardian
range to become a trusted part of Malaysian homes, supporting families through
everyday moments with products they can rely on,” Anna added.
The mannings guardian range is now available at all guardian
stores nationwide and online. The full selection of mannings guardian
