How to transform cosmetics packaging from a linear to a circular economy

To produce sustainable packaging means ensuring a proper end of life by a integration into the circular economy.

Beauty product solutions have become significantly more sustainable. Glass, aluminum, post-consumer recycled resin, biodegradable pulp, plant-based adhesives and plant-based inks are just a few of the options now available to the industry.

However, the shift to more sustainable packaging, and mono-materials in particular, is still a challenge in the overall concept of recycling and sustainability for certain products. From lotion and treatment pumps to lipstick mechanisms, the small, multi-material, complex parts required to create an ergonomic product and consumer-friendly experience can potentially be detrimental to the recycling process.

Aptar Beauty has teamed up with Eva Lagarde from re/sources – an outside expert and opinion leader on sustainability – to co-author a white paper on the contribution of dispensing and packaging solutions and the contribution of the development of these products to the circular economy. Eva’s expertise on the subject was important to ensure we continually challenge ourselves and the multipack industry to ensure we are all doing our part.

“Our commitment to a true circular model is a key pillar of our sustainability strategy. By working with experts like Eva Lagarde, we can use these insights internally and share them externally in hopes of inspiring the packaging industry.” Beth Holland, Vice President, Global Sustainability

The aim of this white paper is to address the solutions that are emerging to reduce environmental impact and help the beauty industry become more sustainable.

What you will learn:

  • The needs of the beauty consumer and the response of the beauty industry
  • Sustainable materials for a circular approach
  • How to anticipate regulations and drive innovation
  • What lies ahead in the circular economy
