With the improvement of living standards, modern people have increasingly high requirements for the quality of life, so people are also around the daily necessities, including the design and packaging of cosmetics requirements are more and more strict.
Packaging is more and more important in our social life, but ordinary packaging caused more and more serious pollution damage to the ecological environment, so new packaging has become the direction of the development of materials used in the design field.
Packaging has evolved from a requirement of product function to a wide variety, focusing more on sales function and brand promotion function, as well as environmental awareness. The change of packaging function leads to the renewal of design concept, thus green packaging appears.
The so-called "green packaging" is a relative concept, man-made products more or less will consume resources, energy, thus affecting the environment. A product packaging, if at the beginning of the design can be compared with the traditional way of the past, so that it has a lower impact, so as to achieve a level of durability and long-term use, can be called "green packaging".
Green packaging is the only channel for sustainable development, is a cycle of the packaging industry, is the application of environmental protection concept in the packaging industry, and has become the basic requirements of the WTO agreement.
In the late 1960s and early 1970s, consumer awareness began to rise, and by the 1980s, trendy young people and academics began to pay attention. Its development process is divided into three stages.
The first stage, reducing discarded packaging waste is the main direction of environmental protection, called "recycling packaging waste" said. It was the United States that first enacted the recycling law in the 1970s, followed by Denmark in 1984, which also addressed the recycling of beverage packaging in its country. The treatment and utilization of packaging waste was issued in 1996.
The second phase, the mid-1980s to early 1990s. This period emphasizes that producers and consumers must pay attention to the coordination of ecological environment. The United States put forward several requirements on packaging waste:
1. Try to simplify packaging, use less or not;
2. Recycle product packaging that can still be used;
3. Materials that cannot be recycled should be replaced by degradable materials.
The third stage, the mid to late 1990s, is a "cradle to reproduction" process, that is, from raw material extraction to manufacturing, use, waste recycling and reuse.
Due to the 1980s to 1990s in the United States, France and other fashion countries on environmental protection requirements and legislation, and even for the emergence of hard packaging container laws and regulations, the international more and more attention to green products, comply with this trend, the international major cosmetics manufacturers have to green environmental protection of this symbol.
Cosmetics in beautify and embellish people's life, hidden a huge business opportunities, huge consumer market. First of all, the packaging of cosmetics cannot react chemically with the products it wraps, that is, the functionality of the packaging of cosmetics. The protection of repackaging requires light packaging, easy to carry and a certain durability, to protect the goods from being destroyed. Finally, it is decorative. Packaging must enhance the brand and improve its own value.
In recent years, the application of plastic materials, composite materials and environmental protection materials in cosmetic packaging accounts for an increasing proportion. On the one hand, it can completely isolate light and air, on the other hand, it can ensure the freshness of goods.
Due to the international attention to green packaging, as well as the issuance of various laws and regulations, many cosmetics manufacturers have begun to pay attention to the environmental protection of the era of the mainstream packaging, adding degradable materials on the packaging of cosmetics, and considering whether these materials can be recycled. Therefore, the vacuum flexible packaging is convenient to carry and high plasticity. It has the advantages of strong protection, high resilience and recovery.
PETG
A transparent, non-crystalline copolyester, with glass-like transparency, gloss, chemical corrosion resistance, impact resistance, recyclable. It has been applied to perfume bottle, cosmetic bottle, lipstick tube, cosmetic box and so on.
Bamboo plastic
Bamboo fiber and bamboo powder are used as raw materials to replace wood and EPE foam as cushioning and packaging materials. Can reduce the use of wood pulp, reduce the destruction of forest trees; Bamboo also grows faster and uses less water during processing.
Bran paper
The use of bran as a raw material to replace equivalent wood pulp reduces the use of wood. At the same time, the product can also have a natural bran color, giving people a more environmentally friendly feeling.
Although new environmentally friendly materials emerge in an endless stream, green cosmetics packaging bottles are becoming the mainstream, but some companies have excessive packaging. Such a result will not only increase the cost of products and consumers' purchase burden, but also cause a serious waste of resources. Even the use of environmentally friendly materials can't make up for the lack of green.
Therefore, the green future of cosmetic packaging not only needs green materials, but also needs enterprises to have green concepts, so as to promote the transformation of the whole cosmetic industry chain to a greener direction.
