Kenvue Opens Innovation Lab and Relocates Global Headquarters to Spark Science-Led Growth

Kenvue has officially opened its new global headquarters in Summit, New Jersey — complete with an on-site Science & Innovation Lab designed to accelerate product development and deepen consumer insights across its health-focused portfolio.

The newly built headquarters is designed to foster cross-functional collaboration between R&D, marketing, regulatory, and commercial teams. The co-located lab will serve as a hub for formulation, rapid prototyping, and claims testing across brands like Tylenol, Aveeno, Neutrogena, and Band-Aid.

Executives say the move reflects Kenvue’s identity as a science-first, consumer-connected company following its spin-off from Johnson & Johnson. By combining headquarters and innovation capabilities under one roof, Kenvue aims to drive faster innovation cycles and translate scientific breakthroughs into market-ready solutions.

Innovation isn’t just what you make — it’s how and where you make it. Kenvue’s new HQ shows how physical proximity between science and strategy can turn R&D into retail momentum.
