Designing Products with Recycling in Mind

Increasing consumer recycling starts with designing products that are easy to recycle. A patented, Mono-Material System Dropper and Bottle has been created with the end-consumers in mind, to ensure a beautiful experience that has a positive impact on the environment. Being mono-material allows for reduced recycling complexity as this dropper and the bottle can be recycled as one unit. APC Packaging designed the pipette utilizing the latest technology for clarity, which overcomes the use of glass in typical multi-material & non-recyclable droppers on the market today. The pipette and bottle were both designed using Polypropylene (PP) enhanced with NX® UltraClearTM to challenge the traditional clarity of glass. This innovation helps APC support a brand’s mission for sustainable packaging while still delivering a product unique to the brand.

Creative departments are no longer limited to just picking a color for the bulb and dropper collar. The pipette can now have transparent colors or tints added for a new effect or to aid in visualization. These innovations make these droppers highly sought by beauty brands all around the globe, as they provide valuable additions to any product line with their easy recyclability and unique customizations. “Innovation and sustainability have always been the core of who we are at APC Packaging. We strive to consistently challenge the norms in the beauty industry, with a goal to highly differentiate the brands that we work with. Our focus has always been our clients, and to provide them with unique offerings, perfectly tailored to their brand personality, and this new dropper truly symbolizes that loyalty.” states CEO and founder, Lisa Lin.
