Beauty begins not only with a newly discovered plant-based active ingredient that reduces wrinkles, but also with a dispenser or bottle whose sustainable production confirms the ecological purchase decision. At CosmeticBusiness in Munich from 5 to 6 June, over 400 suppliers will be presenting trends and developments in the areas of ingredients, manufacturing and packaging.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sustainability remains the top theme in the packaging sector. This year, exhibitors will primarily be showing how they with monomaterial solutions<\/strong> further facilitate recycling and therefore recyclability. The exhibition also uses various examples to show that recycled materials can be better utilised in the form of PCR.<\/p>\n

Eight corners and less weight<\/h2>\n

Alb\u00e9a has expanded its EcoTop family. The combined cap-head system is now complemented by the octagonal OctoTop. L'Occitane already uses them for its hand cream tubes, as they correspond to the brand's traditional design. Compared to the previous solution, OctoTop is said to be weight reduced by 21 per cent<\/strong> have. It also reduces the CO2 footprint. The new solution is made from PE and is suitable for recycling in the HDPE stream.<\/p>

Product portfolio made from just one material<\/h2>\n

In Munich, Corpack is presenting its mono-material packaging for lipstick, mascara and powder. All components consist of Made from 100 per cent polypropylene (PP)<\/strong>. The packaging manufacturer is thus supporting its customers in the development of sustainable products with which they can meet both consumer demand and possible future requirements. Packaging made from just one material is easier to separate and sort, which increases its recyclability. High-quality recyclates can thus be fed back into the production cycle.<\/p>
