As a pioneer in the development of sustainable packaging for beauty brands, Alb\u00e9a will leverage its expertise in the use of recycled resins to deliver a high-performing tube experience.<\/p>\n<p>Traditional recycling streams for plastics are limited, and plastics can only be recycled a finite amount of times. Advanced recycling returns hard-to-recycle plastics, otherwise destined for incineration or landfill, back to their basic building blocks. Once the plastic has been broken down to its molecular state, it is then used to create high-performance plastics akin to a virgin material. SABIC\u2019s ground-breaking, certified circular polymer, part of its TRUCIRCLE\u2122 portfolio of circular solutions, uses this technology which is capable of continually converting plastics back to the original polymer. Through the use of this innovative recycling technology, Origins, ELC, SABIC and Alb\u00e9a are helping to drive innovation across the value chain toward the goal of a circular plastic economy.<\/p>\n<p>This strategic partnership aligns with ELC\u2019s sustainable packaging goals, which includes increasing the amount of post-consumer recycled (PCR) material in its packaging by up to 50% by 2025, and will further Origins efforts to ensure that at least 80% of the brand\u2019s packaging by weight is recyclable, refillable, reusable, recycled or recoverable by 2023.<\/p>\n<p>SABIC&#8217;s certified polymers are based on a mass balance approach. To secure the chain of custody, the value chain parties require an ISCC PLUS certification. This widely recognized international sustainability certification scheme verifies that the mass balance accounting follows predefined and transparent rules. In addition, it provides traceability along the supply chain, from the feedstock to the final product.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRespect for the well-being of your skin and our planet is ingrained into our brand\u2019s DNA. It guides our actions and is reflected in our Origins offerings which is why we\u2019re excited to partner with SABIC and Alb\u00e9a to provide our consumers with a safe, high-quality and responsible packaging solution that helps reduce our impact on the environment,\u201d says Francesca Damato, Origins Vice President Global Marketing and Product Development. \u201cTogether, we have an exciting opportunity to define how the prestige beauty industry can create sustainable, attractive packaging solutions that please both consumer and the planet. This is a significant first step in the transition towards a circular economy, helping to close the loop on plastic waste.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt The Est\u00e9e Lauder Companies, we approach sustainable design options for our prestige and luxury packaging with a spirit of collaboration. To further our focus on reducing the potential environmental impacts of a package across its lifecycle, we are proud to partner with SABIC and Alb\u00e9a on Origins industry-first sustainable packaging innovation,\u201d said Sushil Iyer, Vice President, Global Packaging, The Est\u00e9e Lauder Companies. \u201cExploring the uses of advanced recycled PCR has incredible potential to help drive the achievement of our sustainable packaging goals, and we are excited to bring this product to market.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mark Vester, Circular Economy Leader at SABIC, said \u201cThe new Origins packaging is the result of true collaboration and innovation, and another step closer to closing the loop on used plastics.

This breakthrough with Origins, The Est\u00e9e Lauder Companies and SABIC is an industry first \u2013 paving the way for the use of advanced recycled, post-consumer waste into prestige beauty packaging thanks to an innovative source of high-quality resins,\u201d says St\u00e9phane Barlet, VP of Sales, Alb\u00e9a Americas. \u201cThis co-development also highlights the importance of partnership and audacity across the value-chain, which is crucial to accelerate the transition to recyclable and reusable packaging.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>About Origins<\/h3>\n<p>Prestige global skincare brand, Origins combines high-quality plant, earth and sea-based ingredients with non-toxic-to-skin alternatives and advanced science to create safe, high-performance products that deliver transformative results.
