Driving The Future of Beauty with Eco-Friendly Cosmetic Packaging
Created for cosmetics. Our sustainable packaging protects your formulas and complements your branding without harming the environment.
Time to Rethink Traditional Plastic Packaging for Cosmetics
Traditional plastic packaging relies heavily on petroleum, contributing significantly to carbon emissions and accelerating climate change.
Stricter EU regulations are cracking down on single-use and hard-to-recycle plastics. Cosmetic brands that don’t adapt risk fines, restrictions, and losing shelf space.
Conventional plastics break down into microplastics that persist in nature, harming ecosystems and wildlife. This pollution poses a serious risk to global biodiversity.
Today’s beauty buyers want brands that care for the environment. Using traditional plastics can cost you customer trust and loyalty as shoppers choose greener alternatives.
Petroleum-based plastics rely on finite fossil resources that took millions of years to form, and once used, they’re gone for good. This one-way consumption depletes the environment and limits options for future generations.
Sustainable Packaging Trends Shaping the Cosmetics Industry
Shift from Plastic to Paper-Based Solutions
- Brands are increasingly turning to paper as an alternative to conventional plastics.
- As a carbon-neutral material, paper stands out for its lower environmental impact.
- It also offers greater design flexibility, making it easier to convey a brand’s unique personality through printing and finishes.
Mono-Material Packaging for Easier Recycling
- Single-material formats are gaining traction in the beauty industry.
- Mono-materials (PET, PE, or PP) simplify sorting and recycling compared to mixed-material designs.
- The industry is also advancing “bottle-to-bottle” closed-loop recycling, where used containers are collected, processed, and remade into new ones.
Refill and Reuse Systems
- Refillable formats are being widely adopted to reduce single-use plastic waste.
- Even luxury brands are designing products with durable, reusable containers.
- Some companies have introduced take-back programs, encouraging consumers to return empty packaging for reuse or proper recycling.
Adoption of Bio-Plastics and Plant-Based Materials
- Bio-plastics derived from food waste help reduce dependence on fossil fuels.
- Innovative blends using materials such as rice husks or scallop shells are also emerging in the market.
- These innovations appeal to eco-conscious consumers seeking sustainable choices.
Renewed Interest in Glass and Metal
- Glass and metal are being revisited as sustainable packaging options due to their recyclability.
- These materials are especially popular in the premium cosmetics sector.
- They offer both a luxurious look and feel, along with strong eco credentials.

Kind Words From Our Customers
“Our strong vision of sustainability resulted in a long journey of packaging development, including the first PE and PP replacement materials, reluctant manufacturers and “green-washing” quotations. Some time ago we found Sulapac, at the time a small start-up with the right mindset and a visionary product. Today we are the first company which introduced a fully compostable, sustainable processed and well-designed jar into the German market. We are very pleased about the cooperation with Nissha-Sulapac and we are convinced that this collaboration will bring additional benefits to our customers amidst a rapidly growing market.”
“Sulapac® is perfect for our capsules because it has great, high quality look and sustainability. We mainly sell online and it perfect for shipping, because it does not break such as glass. And plastic was not an option for us.”
“We love the Sulapac jar because it has combines beautiful form and function. We wanted to find a great sustainable material that would fit with our brand story. The material also has a natural but premium look so this perfect for a high quality wellness product.
Feedback from our customers has been very positive. They love the look of the jar and really happy that we have a biodegradable material to help minimize plastic waste.”
