Samples of cosmetic products are quite common and widely used. Or rather, they are not even exactly samples, but rather single-use portions of almost any cosmetic product. These are sachet-type bags that are immediately thrown away after use. The ratio of product volumes to packaging in this case is not about ecology at all. But it turns out that not everything is hopeless here.

Recently, the international company Arcade Beauty presented a new material for such sachets. The material is 80% paper. And this figure makes it possible to send used sachets for recycling as paper. The remaining 20% ​​probably consists of the necessary barrier coatings. The manufacturer does not specify what they are made of.

The new material was developed in collaboration with cosmetics company Origins, which will be the first brand to use it for packaging its single-dose products.

Arcade Beauty showcased these paper sachets at a show in Paris at the very end of January, and is also bringing them to LuxPack in Los Angeles on February 12-13.
