Heavy Wall PET Is Not Your Ordinary Cosmetic Packaging
Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is rapidly becoming the world's preferred packaging material for food and drink. It does not contain bisphenol-A (BPA) or phthalates (plasticizers), and is fully recyclable.
But the presentation of, for instance, a single-serving flimsy water bottle is not ideal for a luxury haircare or skincare brand.
That’s why, at EPOPACK, we have pioneered the Heavy Wall style for cosmetic packaging.
It is a balancing act:
Solidity implies luxury, security, trust. But that can risk going overboard into hefty, heavy, wasteful. For example, double-layer acrylic bottles may feel sturdy enough. However they leave the impression of “over-packaging”.
We’ve designed our PET Heavy Wall bottles and jars to be incredibly robust, while still looking sleek and remaining lightweight.
Although the high-clarity appearance makes them seem like glass, they are completely shatterproof.
“It feels sturdy enough to take a bullet” said one brand owner after she requested a sample.
Well, to be honest, our PET packaging is in fact not bulletproof. But it certainly seems that way in your hand.
Ultimately, brands using this material:
- remain eco-friendly, with the world’s most-recyclable plastic
- maintain a high-end appearance (on the shelf it looks like glass)
- minimize shipping issues, with lower weights and no breakage
EPOPACK’s PET Heavy Wall bottles and jars are available in many sizes and shapes, fully customizable for decoration and attachments.
