These days, cosmetic packaging is almost never recycled. The reason for this is the complex structure of the group of materials used, different types of coatings and dyes as well as additional materials used for decoration. As a result, separating these materials from one another and reintroducing them into the production cycle entails using complex recycling technology within an inefficient framework. Additionally, strict rules on cleaning in the event of contamination with potentially dangerous substances have to be followed.
Zeroplast free is a bio-based natural material that has been optimized for industrial injection molding. The recycling process includes the necessary cleaning step; only natural dyes and labels that do not entail additional separation and cleaning are used.
Zeroplast free is the only material for cosmetic packaging that is appropriate for use in a cradle to cradle cycle.
