For decades, glass has reigned supreme in the world of cosmetic packaging. But times are changing. A new contender is emerging, offering a balance of functionality, sustainability, and aesthetics: PET (polyethylene terephthalate) plastic.

PET: the eco-friendly choice for conscious consumers

Consumers are increasingly concerned about the environmental impact of the products they buy. PET plastic offers a compelling solution, aligning with the values of today's eco-conscious shoppers. PET is one of the most widely recycled plastics globally, designated as #1 on the recycling scale. This means post-consumer PET can be reborn into new packaging, reducing reliance on virgin plastic. PET is lighter than glass, leading to reduced fuel consumption during transportation, lowering carbon footprint throughout the supply chain. PET packaging is significantly less likely to break compared to glass, minimizing product loss and potential safety hazards during shipping and on retail shelves.

PET's performance perks: beyond sustainability

PET isn't just good for the planet; it offers several advantages for cosmetic brands. PET offers a very high level of versatility. PET can be molded into various shapes and sizes, accommodating a wide range of cosmetic products from lotions and creams to serums and mascara. High-quality PET also offers excellent clarity, allowing consumers to see the beautiful colors and textures of their cosmetic products. PET provides a good barrier against moisture, extending the shelf life of cosmetic products and protecting them from contaminants. Compared to glass, PET is a more cost-effective packaging option, contributing to competitive pricing for cosmetic brands. Selenis Venuz™ copolyesters have been specifically developed for the cosmetics market where exceptional clarity is combined with high performance and easy processing, allowing you to efficiently package your products in designs that transmit luxury.  

Aesthetics meet sustainability: standing out on the shelf

PET packaging can be anything but boring. Modern printing technologies allow for creative designs, high-quality graphics, and metallic accents to make cosmetic products stand out on retail shelves. Additionally, colored PET can add a touch of sophistication and brand identity.

The many faces of PET in cosmetics

PET takes a variety of forms in the world of cosmetic packaging:

• Bottles: The most common application, PET bottles are used for lotions, creams, liquid soaps, and shampoos. They come in various sizes and shapes to suit different needs.
• Jars: Clear PET jars are popular for creams, gels, and balms, offering excellent product visibility and available in various capacities. Some jars may incorporate a PET inner liner for additional protection.
• Tubes: Flexible PET tubes are ideal for toothpaste, lip gloss, and mascaras. They are lightweight, easy to dispense, and can be decorated with eye-catching designs.
• Components: PET can also be used for various cosmetic packaging components like caps, lids, and dispensers, complementing the overall look and creating a cohesive aesthetic.
• Preforms and Customization: Manufacturers often utilize PET preforms, which are pre-shaped containers that can be blown into specific shapes during production. This allows for a high degree of customization for cosmetic brands to create unique and recognizable packaging designs.

Sustainability in action: beyond the basics

The cosmetics industry is embracing PET's sustainable qualities. The use of recycled PET (rPET) is gaining traction. rPET uses post-consumer plastic waste that is reprocessed into new packaging, reducing reliance on virgin plastic and minimizing environmental impact. Look for brands highlighting their use of rPET content in their packaging as a sustainable selling point. Some companies are exploring biodegradable additives that can be incorporated into PET packaging to accelerate decomposition under specific composting conditions. While this technology is still developing, it represents a promising avenue for further development.

PET provides a good barrier against moisture, extending the shelf life of cosmetic products and protecting them from contaminants. Compared to glass, PET is a more cost-effective packaging option, contributing to competitive pricing for cosmetic brands. Selenis Venuz™ copolyesters have been specifically developed for the cosmetics market where exceptional clarity is combined with high performance and easy processing, allowing you to efficiently package your products in designs that transmit luxury.  

Aesthetics meet sustainability: standing out on the shelf

PET packaging can be anything but boring. Modern printing technologies allow for creative designs, high-quality graphics, and metallic accents to make cosmetic products stand out on retail shelves. Additionally, colored PET can add a touch of sophistication and brand identity.

The many faces of PET in cosmetics

PET takes a variety of forms in the world of cosmetic packaging:

• Bottles: The most common application, PET bottles are used for lotions, creams, liquid soaps, and shampoos. They come in various sizes and shapes to suit different needs.
• Jars: Clear PET jars are popular for creams, gels, and balms, offering excellent product visibility and available in various capacities. Some jars may incorporate a PET inner liner for additional protection.
• Tubes: Flexible PET tubes are ideal for toothpaste, lip gloss, and mascaras. They are lightweight, easy to dispense, and can be decorated with eye-catching designs.
• Components: PET can also be used for various cosmetic packaging components like caps, lids, and dispensers, complementing the overall look and creating a cohesive aesthetic.
• Preforms and Customization: Manufacturers often utilize PET preforms, which are pre-shaped containers that can be blown into specific shapes during production. This allows for a high degree of customization for cosmetic brands to create unique and recognizable packaging designs.

Sustainability in action: beyond the basics

The cosmetics industry is embracing PET's sustainable qualities. The use of recycled PET (rPET) is gaining traction. rPET uses post-consumer plastic waste that is reprocessed into new packaging, reducing reliance on virgin plastic and minimizing environmental impact. Look for brands highlighting their use of rPET content in their packaging as a sustainable selling point. Some companies are exploring biodegradable additives that can be incorporated into PET packaging to accelerate decomposition under specific composting conditions. While this technology is still developing, it represents a promising avenue for further development.
