Packaging with different materials

Each material offers various packaging characteristics, such as strength, impermeability, gas barrier, and light protection, and together they perform to preserve the product in the best possible way. As a proven expert in plastic packaging for skincare lines, SR Packaging can advise on the best options for your product.

Challenge to change

Conventionally it is challenging to develop mono-material solutions to guarantee efficient and effective product protection. Yet, SR Packaging creates mono-material packaging and keep the pack's functionality.

The advantages of mono-material in recycling

Packaging with only one type of plastic does not require post-use disassembling, therefore facilitating and speeding up the recycling process. This results in a better quality recycled resin suitable for more applications, which in turn ncreases its added value and attracts the interest of the entire chain, from collectors to transformers.

Mono-material Airless Bottles

Recyclable, 2-layer extrusion blow molded airless bottles utilize the same material as their matching dispensing pumps or sprayers. Consumers can then simply toss the empties into recycling bins without separating them.

And many more

It's not just airless packaging that SR Packaging manufactures in mono-material to facilitate recycling. 

The company's PP dropper bottle, PE tube, PP tube, PET lipstick, PP lipstick, and aluminum lipstick are each made of one single material for the pack's entire packaging composition.
