Repurposed Haircare Bottles

Reload Reuses Mineral Water Bottles to Make Product Packaging

— November 11, 2019 — Eco
Brazilian haircare company Reload Beleza Positiva is setting itself apart as one of the first brands in the world to reuse plastic mineral water bottles as haircare bottles. While many brands are making use of ocean plastic and collected plastic as a material to create new products, the brand is using bottles that are already readily available.

Reload works with mineral water company Água Mineral São Lourenço and collects disposed water bottles after they are used in bars, hotels and restaurants. After using a patented sanitizing technique to deeply clean all of the collected bottles, Reload simply reuses the bottles for products like its shampoo and conditioner.

Reload's shampoo and conditioner products are all-natural, vegan, free from harsh ingredients and scented by an exclusive fragrance that was developed by Givaudan.
Trend Themes
1. Reuse of Plastic Bottles - The trend of repurposing plastic bottles for packaging offers opportunities for innovative brands to reduce waste and make sustainable products.
2. Partnerships with Beverage Companies - Collaborating with mineral water companies and collecting used bottles presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for haircare brands looking for eco-friendly packaging solutions.
3. All-natural and Vegan Haircare - The demand for all-natural, vegan haircare products is on the rise, creating a space for brands like Reload to make a mark by using repurposed packaging materials.
Industry Implications
1. Haircare - The haircare industry can explore repurposed packaging materials to meet the growing consumer desire for sustainable and eco-friendly products.
2. Beverage - Beverage companies can consider partnering with haircare brands to repurpose their used plastic bottles, driving sustainability initiatives and diversifying their product offerings.
3. Cosmetics - Cosmetics industry players could incorporate the use of repurposed plastic bottles in their packaging, catering to environmentally-conscious consumers and enhancing brand perception.
