the composite packaging of paper and plastic for food causes more packaging waste

Paper packaging box with window


The concept of using less plastic packaging and protecting our planet has been accepted by the people all over the world. Considering the cost and performance of packaging, more and more composite packaging has been adopted for food packaging and gift packaging, like paper packaging boxes and printed paper bags with plastic lids or windows.

But the latest study from Germany shows that the composite packaging of paper and plastic for food causes more packaging waste.

Until 2025, the composite packaging will keep increasing, and require an average of 40% more material to pack the same amount of products.It assumed that by 2025, paper composite packaging will produce a total of 25000 tons of waste.

Advantages of glass bottle packaging for cosmetics

1. Protecting active ingredients: Glass has an opaque material that has a good blocking effect on light. This enables the glass bottle to effectively protect the active ingredients in essence from the influence of light and air, which helps to extend the stability and shelf life of the product.

 

2. Recyclability: Glass is a recyclable material that conforms to the trends of sustainability and environmental protection. Most places have glass recycling facilities, so using glass bottles can help reduce environmental burdens.

 

3. High quality texture: Cosmetic glass bottles have a noble and elegant appearance, giving products a high quality texture. The texture and transparency of this material allow consumers to visually see the product, increasing its attractiveness when making a purchase.

 

4. Chemical resistance: Glass has a high resistance to chemicals and is not easily affected by cosmetic ingredients, ensuring the purity and stability of the product.

 

5. Precise pump design: glass essence bottles are usually equipped with high-quality pumps or droppers, which can ensure that an appropriate amount of products can be accurately distributed each time they are used to avoid waste.

 

6. Customizable design: Brands can design unique skincare glass bottles based on product positioning and target market needs, highlighting the brand's uniqueness and high-end feel.

How are cosmetic glass bottles made?

The most basic process for making cosmetic packaging is glass packaging manufacturing. The raw materials for making glass are generally quartz sand, sodium carbonate, and limestone. Mix these raw materials in a certain proportion, melt them in a high-temperature furnace, and then use a fiberglass machine to adsorb the melted glass onto the fibers. After rapid cooling, form glass tubes or discs.

1. Forming

The glass tubes are cut, heated, and blown into different shapes of glass bottles, such as circular, square, trapezoidal, etc.

2. Cutting

Cut the glass tube or disc into the desired length and use a cutting tool for cutting.

3. Heating

Put the cut glass tube or disc into a special heating furnace and heat it to a certain temperature to soften the glass. This can make the bottle easier to shape during blowing, while also reducing the probability of producing bubbles and burning points.

4. Blow molding

After heating, a certain amount of gas is blown into the interior of a glass tube or disc through a glass blowing tube, causing it to expand into the shape of the bottle body. When blowing, different shapes of glass bottles require different blowing tools. Then use a machine to modify the shape of the bottle to increase its aesthetics.
