Lumson has introduced two novel products that offer a new way of approaching luxury in the cosmetics sector: the Eco Dropper and new materials covers.
With its latest innovations, the Italian company takes aesthetic research to a new level and provides a vision of the luxury world that combines sustainability and fun.
Because they are made of a single material, they can be easily recycled at the end of their life. This does not compromise technical performance, however: Eco Dropper provides the same precision and ease of use as traditional droppers.
The collar and pipette are made of PP while the seal is made of polyolefin, a special elastomer compatible with the PP recycling chain. This solution simplifies end-of-life recycling, so that all the components can be processed along the same chain. The Eco Dropper can also be combined with PCR glass bottles for fully sustainable packaging.
SPICE analysis confirms the sustainability of this product. Compared to a standard dropper with TPE seal, UREA collar and glass pipette, the CO2 emissions used for production are reduced by 29 per cent, while the aggregate single score is reduced by 39 per cent.
The results speak for themselves. Compared to a traditional Lumson PETG cover, the mono-material version reduces the aggregate score by 68 per cent, CO2 emissions by 28 per cent and the use of minerals and metals by 93 per cent (source: SPICE).

The Eco Dropper
The Eco Dropper is a mono-material dropper. The components are made entirely of PP allowing them to be easily designed in an original and colored version.Because they are made of a single material, they can be easily recycled at the end of their life. This does not compromise technical performance, however: Eco Dropper provides the same precision and ease of use as traditional droppers.

PP Mono-Material Cover
If the Eco Dropper proves that luxury can be fun, the new PP mono-material cover confirms that the future of luxury is sustainability. The three elements of the cover—outer/inner/sealing gasket—are made of a single material (PP) and are designed to avoid visual aesthetic defects. The cover can be combined with the Slim 58-diameter bottle and the De Luxe 66-diameter bottle in both standard and refillable versions. For an even greener approach, the components can be made of PCR PP.The results speak for themselves.
