Aptar has proudly collaborated with Dermalogica, to be the first prestige skincare brand to launch their cleansing line using Aptar’s fully recyclable mono-material pump, Future. Dermalogica has integrated this innovative Aptar solution for their cleansing range. In developing the concept for Future, Aptar’s experts turned to design principles that help reduce the environmental footprint of the product, including development of mono-material packaging. Traditional pumps may contain different materials, including metal components that may impact the recycling process. Future is made from Polyethylene (PE) only, which aligns with the most common materials used to make bottles – PE and Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) and consists of a plastic spring. By combining Future with a fully PE Bottle (made of 50% PCR), Dermalogica is able to deliver a fully-recyclable package with no need for separation. The integration of 50% PCR furthers its circularity contributions.
