Global leader in dispensing systems Aptar Beauty expands its Advance Collection, a new generation of all-plastic pumps designed to maximize recyclability. First introduced in 2025, the Advance dispensing solutions are suitable with the main plastic recycling streams while preserving the iconic design, dispensing quality and consumer experience of Aptar Beauty's best-selling products.
Building on the recent launches of the GSA Advance dispensing pump and the PZ Advance spray pump, the Novus Advance cosmetic pump brings this innovative all-polyolefin platform to hair and body care.
Novus Advance features an innovative full-polyolefin cartridge combining Polypropylene (PP) and Polyethylene (PE), making it fully recyclable in the Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) and PE streams, when paired with a High-Density PE, PP or PET bottle. Other sustainable attributes include a POM-free design also capable of integrating Post-Consumer Recycled Resin (PCR).
“Novus Advance is another step in our continued focus on ensuring our products continue to support circular economy efforts. We plan to expand this innovative full-polyolefin collection to other dosages and applications to facilitate this sustainable transition for brands.”
Luigi Garofalo, Global Category Director Personal Care & Home Care, Aptar Beauty
Designed with a robust bellow technology located outside of the dosage chamber, Novus Advance offers a consistent dispensing of medium doses (500 μl and 350 μl) while ensuring broad compatibility with most formulations, even with short chain alkanes. This high-performing pump adapts from low to high viscosities, for oils, creams, and serums across body, sun, and hair care applications*.
The twist-to-lock mechanism and cap-free design ensure an easy, effortless and secure opening and closing of the pump. Novus Advance has passed Aptar Beauty’s rigorous in-house ISTA-6 testing protocols for omnichannel packaging needs, guaranteeing it withstands the unique challenges of e-commerce shipping**.
