Eastman, a global specialty materials company, and ICONS|ICS, a leading supplier of cosmetic packaging solutions, are pleased to announce the launch of an innovative monomaterial cosmetic compact which pushes the boundaries of eco-friendly packaging.The compact is the result of a co-innovation initiative between the companies and showcases their commitment to sustainable packaging solutions. Recently displayed by Eastman at LUXE PACK Monaco,the compact was nominated for LUXE PACK in green Awards in the eco-conceived packaging category.
The monomaterial compact is made entirely from Eastman Cristal ™ One Renew, an RIC1 resin with 100%certified recycled content.* The elimination of traditional metal hinges and pins greatly improves the recyclability of the compact while its refillable design allows consumers to easily replenish their cosmetic products.
“We are excited to have collaborated with ICONS|ICS on this innovative project,” said Tara Cary, global cosmetics and personal care packaging manager at Eastman. “The integration of design and materials expertise allowed us to create a game-changing solution that addresses the growing consumer demand for recycled content and recyclability in packaging in a refillable application they can reuse again and again.”
“The collaboration with Eastman aligns perfectly with our commitment to providing sustainable packaging solutions to the cosmetics industry,” said Dave Thompson, ICONS|ICS director of technical and design.“Together, we are driving innovation by showing the world what is possible in terms of eco-friendly packaging.”
