After a full year’s intense work on materials, molds, forms and textures, l’Eau d’Issey the iconic fragrance from Issey Miyake, is now available in a double pack concept named IGO / ISTAY, as a result of the collaboration between Aptar Beauty + Home and Shiseido.

Slender and elegant, the ISTAY flacons honour the emblematic original design of l’Eau d’Issey fragrance bottles which were intended to remain sedentary, unlike the IGO caps which complete them.

Containing 20ml of fragrance and an integrated vaporizer, the IGO capclips easily on and off the ISTAY base, presenting an ideal travel format.

Light and unbreakable, Its technical culmination is achieved in the women’s version of l’Eau d’Issey for which the nomadic cover cap is fitted with a spherical actuator containing a safety device to guarantee a perfect seal.

Both the men’s and women’s IGO caps mirror the color shades of the original fragrances — the lacquer of the men’s iteration and metallization of the women’s — while ensuring optimal performance of the aluminium, leather and silver finishing.

Pujolasos team launches the first wooden cap with disposable plastic inner for recycling, manufactured from natural materials, such as wood and with a specific plastic inner designed to be recycled after its useful life.

This innovation is compatible with most existing and potential developments, both in perfumery and cosmetics, oriented towards sustainability. The disposable plastic inner can also be injected in PCR. This patent is applicable to any material that covers such plastic innovation, not just wood.

Wood is a noble, organic and 100% natural material associated to luxury and sustainability. If it is complemented with this “Woodle®” innovation, it responds to the current market need and demand aimed at offering consumers sustainable packaging products for the beauty sector.

For Paco Rabanne's Invictus, Cosfibel created a metal coffret in the shape of a football.

Cosfibel rose to the challenge of transforming tin by stretching it to the limits of its resistance. Each of the two parts necessitated around 10 successive production operations, from stretching and shaping to the embossing of the décor that renders the effect of stitching on leather.

The two halves that make up this coffret are held together with a metallic hinge and closed by clipping together thanks to a groove system.Inside, black PET chocks hold the fragrance bottle and a deodorant in place.

Once filled, each coffret is deliver in a transparent PET cover manufactured by the Grumbe factory in Spain.

Courrèges presents a line of 100 % eco-designed fragrances. Named Colognes Imaginaires, the collection is the result of a marketing approach initiated by the brand in response to new consumer demands. The four different natural fragrances, available in a 100ml format, demonstrate a sustainable approach, from the juice to the outer box via all the different packaging components.

In line with its sustainability strategy and consistent with the shape of its historic bottles, Courrèges chose the Verdi model in lightweight glass. Coverpla added an adjusted pump on a screw collar (CV15). As such, the product can be refilled at the point of sale or recycled once the pump and metallic parts have been removed.

Designed by Coverpla, the Verdi model is part of the Ecoline range from Luigi Bormioli. It reduces material usage (by up to 40 %), using 100g of glass for a 100ml container. This approach allows an average 60 % reduction in carbon dioxide emissions throughout the value chain, from production to sourcing (compared with either plastic or blown or molded glass).
