The clean beauty trend remains in high demand, and it is becoming highly critical for manufacturers not only to offer items with healthy, non-harmful elements but also to offer actively pursued cosmetic packaging. It is therefore an important factor that should not be overlooked, especially in clean beauty brands where the consumer is very much aware of the packaging which affects the environment. Below are the five packaging solutions that can assist clean beauty brands to be in line with the set values as well as customers’ expectations.

Refillable Packaging
They were designed to adapt quickly to new packaging that is built for sustainability, especially refillable ones. This makes it possible for the customers to retain their small containers while they only order refills once the product is exhausted. The benefits include:
Waste Reduction: The use of containers as a pallet is far better because brands cut down on unnecessary use of single-use packaging items.
Cost Savings: Although there is an initial cost required for the procurement of such containers, the reduced number of containers that have to be manufactured and the relatively lighter weight of these containers for shipping also means significant cost savings in the long term.
Minimalist Design

It also means no complicated designs that will need extra ink or dye as well as decreasing the amount of printed material wasted.
Mono-Material Packaging
This also occurs when clean beauty brands seek mono-material packaging as another sustainable option on the market. This is where a particular material is used throughout the packaging structure, making recycling quite an easy process. Key benefits include:
Improved Recyclability: This makes packaging that is made from a single material better for recycling because it doesn’t have to be sorted again by the different materials that were used in making it. This minimizes the chances of the packaging being dumped in the environment, hence a landfill.
Consumer Education: Some arguments that can be made about mono-material packaging include the fact that it is convenient for the brands to convey the instructions for the disposal of the same to the consumer to enhance the chances of the packaging being recycled appropriately. Some companies are among the front runners set on achieving the use of 100% recyclable packaging, a move that usually requires the use of mono material.
