To better align with circular economy principles, brands are favoring mono-material packaging over multi-material cosmetic components, and Quadpack's Emerald is a new option for brands that make everything from lip products to balms and solid fragrances.
This mono-material tube is minimalist in form and available in either square or cylindrical shapes with a capacity of 4-4.5 grams, making it suitable for most lipsticks on the market. Brands that are interested in either style can opt for their choice of materials: recyclable PET and recycled PET (rPET) up to 100%.
Multi-material cosmetic components have long presented challenges in terms of recyclability, as the combination of different materials makes it difficult to separate and process them effectively. In response, sustainably minded beauty brands are favoring mono-material packaging, making it easier for consumers to recycle and reduce waste.
