BEAUTYFORWARD® EDITION 5
Plastic pollution is widely viewed as one of the most pressing environmental issues, resultantly, the packaging of cosmetic and personal care products is under increasing scrutiny. With the responsibility to package products sustainably placed on brands, solid formulations are becoming one of the most viable enablers for reducing plastic. As concentrates, solid products provide more use per unit of volume of product, thereby reducing packaging demands. With reduced water content in formulations, solid products additionally open the door to alternative packaging choices such as cardboard, or cork. In turn, this also provides branding benefits: with fewer consumers buying in shops, packaging viewed on delivery becomes a first impression of a brand and a chance to communicate ethical brand values.
