Cosmetics pumps are usually difficult to recycle because of the many materials incorporated into a single packaging design but US packaging manufacturer Aptar is changing this with its first fully recyclable mono-material pump for beauty and personal care products. Often, mixed materials are required to create the product's dispenser but Future is a solution that only uses polyethylene or post-consumer resin.
Created with e-commerce in mind, Future has a design with a locking system and a 360-degree actuator to fit certain retailer protocols.
Christophe Marie, Product Sustainability Director at Aptar, says "The ideal situation for the complete value chain is to have mono-material packaging where the container, the closure or dispensing system is made from the same material family."
