At Luxe Pack Monaco, French glassmaker Verescence unveiled a limited-edition glass perfume bottle design by the name of 'Upcycled,' which is entirely recyclable, cap and all.
The lightweight all-glass bottle and premium, plastic-free cap present an eco-friendly approach to packaging, along with a product that shares the same traits. Verescence worked with Givaudan, which developed an upcycled fragrance for the show. The scent itself is touted as a "unisex cologne" of 100% natural origin and upcycled ingredients.
In comparison to Verescence's standard glass bottle sizes, the Upcycled bottle features a reduced weight to lessen its impact on the environment. Additionally, the glass perfume bottle involves a patent-pending silk-screening and lacquering process so that even its vibrant label design can be shared in an eco-friendly way.
