Materials
Mono-material packaging
Also written as single material packaging, recyclable packaging, widely recyclable.
A pack made from one material family so it can go into a recycling stream without being taken apart.
What it needs from a bottle
Most cosmetic packs fail recycling on the closure rather than the bottle. A PET bottle with a PP pump is two materials and a customer will not separate them. If the claim matters to your brand, specify the closure material and check it before printing anything about recycling.
Formats that suit it
- Body ranges
- Refill systems
Order from a single bottle, so a first run can be a test rather than a bet on a guess.
