NUA COSMETICS, ITC Packaging launch a compostable bio-based bottle

In Spain, NUA COSMETICS and ITC Packaging announced the launch a compostable bio-based bottle.

The new bottle made with PLA has been developed for Provei Global thanks to the joint efforts of Nua Cosmetics, ITC Packaging and ADBioplastics.

The project started when Provei Global, through its brand Biositivo, set itself a challenge to not only develop a compostable bottle, but also an ecological baby bath  gel that complied with the highest quality standards for sensitive baby skin, which was also compatible with this type of packaging. 

For this project, Cosmetics chose ITC Packaging due to its experience in sustainable packaging solutions, along with ADBioplastics, because of its expertise in developing biodegradable materials.

“At Provei Global, with Biositivo, we are committed to creating products that are completely integrated in the natural cycle, without producing waste. It is a pleasure to have partners like Nua Cosmetics, ITC Packaging and ADBioplastics that share our vision and have helped us come up with a product that not only looks after babies, but also the planet”, said Sébastien Favier, the CEO of Provei Global.

The result of the project is a 500 ml bottle with a dispenser top made of second-generation bio-based materials, the company said.

Xavier Serrano, the Director of the PET Business Unit at ITC Packaging, adds: “We help our customers in the development process of their packaging to improve sustainability and the carbon footprint. With this project we have added a Bio and Compostable line to our portfolio of packaging solutions that joins the other sustainable solutions developed so far.”
