Speciality materials company Eastman has teamed up with cosmetic packaging solutions supplier ICONS|ICS to launch a monomaterial cosmetic compact.

The eco-friendly packaging is the outcome of a co-innovation initiative between the partners and highlights their commitment towards sustainable packaging solutions.

According to Eastman, the monomaterial compact is made entirely from Eastman Cristal One Renew, an RIC1 resin with 100% certified recycled content.

The sustainable packaging comes without traditional metal hinges and pins, which enhances recyclability.

The refillable design helps reduce waste and enables consumers to easily replenish their cosmetic products.

Eastman global cosmetics and personal care packaging manager Tara Cary said: “We are excited to have collaborated with ICONS|ICS on this innovative project.

"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 company displayed the compact at LUXE PACK Monaco and received nomination for LUXE PACK in the green Awards in the eco-conceived packaging category.

Eastman, which is headquartered in Kingsport, Tennessee, US, supplies cosmetic packaging solutions across the globe with customers in more than 100 countries.

ICONS|ICS is a part of ICONS Beauty Group and provides primary packaging, product design, and cosmetic and skincare packaging to pharmaceutical customers.

ICONS|ICS technical and design director Dave Thompson said: “The collaboration with Eastman aligns perfectly with our commitment to providing sustainable packaging solutions to the cosmetics industry. Together, we are driving innovation by showing the world what is possible in terms of eco-friendly packaging.”
