For its Cycle fragrance, Violet has chosen a Coverpla bottle.

site-industries-cosmetiques Cycle 001 - Violet chooses Coverpla for its range of perfume bottles.

In line with its commitment to development, Coverpla has signed a collaboration with the Violet brand for the Cycle fragrance. This is a deliberately limited edition, but a sustainable one, since the bottle proposed by Coverpla is refillable.

Cycle is a creative, ephemeral range of green fragrances, in limited editions and refillable using an aluminum dose that can be ordered over the Internet. For this specific project, Coverpla supplied the Ecotube model from the Ecoline range developed by Bormioli, whose key feature is a 40 % lightened glass.
The brand has chosen the Ecotube 100 ml model for its sober aesthetic and environmental credentials. It features an Aptar screw pump for safe refilling. The brand then chose a wooden cap in a beautiful vintage spirit.

"This eco-designed, refillable bottle was just what we'd been dreaming of. Through Violet, we want to address the social and environmental challenges of our time. We designed Cycle with respect for nature. To achieve this, we insisted on sourcing environmentally-friendly materials. From the cardboard of our pack to the aluminum refill, we've thought of everything to minimize the impact of our product on the environment," explains Victorien Sirot, co-founder of this new adventure for a brand with the prestige of yesteryear that has been dormant for too long.

Cycle marks the contemporary version of this new era, - a creative capsule in the wake of uniqueness - explains Victorien.
This eco-designed, refillable bottle came just at the right moment in our manufacturing schedule, as there are very few of them on the market. Coverpla made us the right proposal. Naturally, we said yes.

Cosfibel reveals metal for Paco Rabanne's Christmas set

Now available in retail outlets in France and abroad, the Paco Rabanne Christmas set is available in metal, with 6 of its fragrance references produced by Cosfibel.
Identical in design, these tin boxes adopt a color and product composition specific to each fragrance: One Million, One Million Parfum, One Million Lucky, Olympéa, Black XS and Pure XS. The box has a simple shape with a lid held on the base by a groove. Inside, the products are held by a transparent wedge under which appears a sheet of metallic paper crumpled to the color of the box.

Tinplate, a safe bet

Once again the brand has chosen tinplate for this festive collection. Cosfibel has worked on the lid and the sides of the base using the embossing technique, a material effect obtained by stretching the metal. The decoration is then protected with a varnish.

An eco-designed sleeve

The sleeve, usually made of PET, has been deliberately replaced by a kraft cardboard belt made by Grumbe with hot stamping.

 

In-cosmetics global will finally be held in October 2021

It's done! The organizers of in-cosmetics global have finally decided on new dates for the cosmetics trade show.

Reed Exhibitions announces that the next edition of in-cosmetics global will take place from October 5 to 7, 2021, again at the Fira de Barcelona.

The organizer states, " This early announcement should help stabilize the impact of COVID-19 worldwide and, when safely possible, ensure that the event can continue to play its vital role in bringing the global industry together again. "

Roziani Zulkifli, exhibition director at Reed Exhibitions, adds, " After consulting with exhibitors and key stakeholders, we recognize that in order to host an international event, more time is needed to allow for the reopening of borders and the lifting of travel restrictions. It is clear that the industry needs to meet in person later in 2021. Large-scale events are subject to ever-changing national and local guidelines and regulations. Our priority is to deliver an attractive and fearless face-to-face event in October, as far as we can, with combined virtual solutions, that will give our exhibitors and visitors additional time to adapt and continue on the road to recovery (...).

While we were not able to host the live show in 2020, it has been exciting to move into the digital world. We've hosted five virtual events in the past seven months and the virtual cosmetic formulation summit on November 17-19, 2020, which will focus on formulation in the age of climate change, and we're not stopping there! Our current focus is on keeping the industry connected during this time, encouraging collaboration, promoting new and innovative solutions, and helping to nurture critical business contacts, so watch this space for a virtual experience next April."

Quadpack celebrates the first anniversary of the acquisition of Louvrette

What happens when German technical excellence meets Barcelona creativity? Innovative solutions multiply, and are developed and produced in a sustainable, inventive and efficient way. This is one of the results of the "marriage" between beauty packaging manufacturer and distributor Quadpack and German manufacturer Louvrette, an unusual but highly successful alliance. Since the acquisition, which propelled Quadpack into Europe's Top 10 beauty packaging suppliers, much has happened.

Quadpack is now firmly established in Germany, Europe's second-largest market for cosmetics, as well as in Austria, Switzerland and Scandinavia. In addition, the Kierspe plant has become Quadpack's manufacturing center in the heart of Europe. The company is thus responding to market demand for localized supply, with no interruptions and shorter lead times, a lower carbon footprint and greater control, thanks also to the Spanish plants - Quadpack Plastics, Quadpack Impressions and Quadpack Wood.

Significant sums have been invested in the 8,500 m2 manufacturing facilities, including 0.5 million euros in molds and 0.3 million euros in a state-of-the-art assembly line. In addition, decoration and assembly capacities will be reinforced in 2021 to facilitate in-house late differentiation and increase agility.

Eight ranges comprising over 70 products have joined Quadpack's Q-Line family, drawing on Louvrette's expertise in sustainable product development and the art of injection molding. This close collaboration with Quadpack's designers and developers will deliver further eco-friendly innovations over the coming year, as part of the company's "positive-impact packaging" program.

The current portfolio includes a host of smart, modular solutions that can be shipped to any region for decoration and assembly, reducing time-to-market and promoting sustainable sourcing. This is particularly true of Louvrette's popular airless range, which is attracting interest beyond Europe, in the USA and Asia-Pacific, other regions where Quadpack is present.

Thanks to Quadpack's experience in mergers and acquisitions, the integration of Louvrette went smoothly, and the past year has been used to invest in the future and cultivate synergies between the teams.
Louvrette's arrival accelerates the realization of Quadpack's 2020-2025 strategy for each of its five pillars: global expansion, agility, sustainability, collaborative innovation and providing a great place to work.
Despite the effects of the pandemic, as a Quadpack company, 2020 is set to be an excellent year for Louvrette, with sales on track to be 10% higher than in 2019. Fabian Erlhöfer, Quadpack Country Manager for the DACH+ region and CEO of Louvrette, is not surprised. He remarked: "Both organizations already had the same passion for packaging, the same commitment to sustainable development and the same deep respect for their communities. These values, which have brought the two companies together, will drive their future as part of a global family ready to leave its mark on a global industry."

Seppic demonstrates the benefits of Sepibliss on sensitive skin

Seppic presents new results on Sepibliss, a natural herbal oral solution for sensitive skin.
Sensitive skin is a worldwide concern that affects over 50 % of the global population. This condition is constantly increasing due to various factors such as pollution, poor cosmetic habits, emotional stress or poor diet. The demand for new, innovative and effective solutions is therefore increasing. Seppic today unveils new studies on Sepibliss, an innovative natural solution for sensitive skin.

In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study, Sepibliss was found to have protective effects against the major reactions to which sensitive skin is prone. The study was conducted on women with sensitive and reactive skin and Sepibliss was found to be effective after only one month of treatment.
These results support the recently published in vitro study which proves the soothing action of Sepibliss on the main markers involved in the inflammatory process and the nociception response (sensory process at the origin of the nervous message causing unpleasant sensations such as itching).
Formulated for dietary supplements, Sepibliss is a natural ingredient - a 100% virgin oil from coriander seeds - obtained by eco-extraction and free of additives and preservatives. Sourced and produced in the South West of France, this fully traceable ingredient is in line with Seppic's strategy to offer natural and ecological products to its customers.

Hygiene - Beauty - Aesthetics: The Febea asks that local shops remain open

chicken - Valenciennes

Following statements by the President of the Republic, the FEBEA regrets that sales outlets such as perfumeries, parapharmacies, hairdressing salons and beauty salons have not been designated among the businesses that may remain open. The FEBEA has informed the government of its wish that these outlets should be able to remain open from now on, and throughout the period of confinement.
As FEBEA president Patrick O'Quin explains: "Most of these businesses are very small enterprises, which have already been considerably weakened by the initial containment.

According to a study by Asterès, forecasts were already gloomy for these businesses, with an estimated 25% drop in sales for the year as a whole.
Following the announcement of the new containment, Patrick O'Quin said: "Keeping these local shops open is a condition of survival, especially as they have made considerable efforts to welcome their customers in perfect health safety conditions".

The FEBEA points out that the run-up to the festive season is essential for these stores: perfume shops, for example, generate a decisive share of their sales in November and December.

What's more, they are important outlets for social interaction: "Hairdressing salons are often the last shops in small towns," says Patrick O'Quin. "Wellness is an essential element of health, as defined by the World Health Organization. In fact, it became clear during the initial confinement that our compatriots were severely lacking in social ties. The result was a 3-fold increase in disorders linked to depression, anxiety and addiction.

Launch of ozmi, the first complete digital platform for the creation of cosmetic products

Product design - Brand

ozmi, the first complete, easy-to-use digital platform for cosmetics creation, is now available to beauty and skincare professionals.
The first platform launched by German start-up Chemster GmbH, ozmi is a digital ecosystem of integrated services open to all players in the cosmetics industry, designed to reduce the difficulties involved in creating new cosmetic products, while offering brands and suppliers an intuitive user experience.

"ozmi aims to offer innovative brands and solution providers an indispensable tool that enables them to create cosmetic products faster and easier," says Udo Eberlein, CEO of Chemster. He adds: "ozmi takes the complexity out of the creation process, and is a truly trusted partner throughout the value chain."

"The beauty and personal care sector is a fragmented industry where information is often unclear or unavailable," he explains. Consumer behavior and demands have transformed product cycles. Today, the consumerization of business also affects the field of cosmetics creation. Industry players expect a technology application for professional use to be as easy and convenient to use as those used in everyday life. With ozmi's transparent approach and user-friendly navigation, we are meeting this demand.

On ozmi, users can find ingredients, formulations and packagingfor cosmetic products, establish partnerships with suppliers, manage projects and receive advice so they don't run into unforeseen difficulties in the design process. And in order to ensure that users' data remains secure and under their exclusive control, ozmi fully complies with European legislation, particularly those relating to RGPD.

Features available today :

  • Simplified search for formulations, ingredients, suppliers and packaging, with filters and detailed results.
  • Collaboration between users: easier contact during the tendering process, basic materials and services at every stage of the project.
  • Project management tools that provide advice from briefing to formula creation.

ozmi's functionality will continue to evolve. According to Udo Eberlein, the platform will take the next step by offering additional functionalities based on user demand: "We're constantly working to make ozmi even more user-friendly. Companies achieve better results when they pool all their projects with their partners on ozmi. This considerably reduces their time-to-market and increases their competitiveness," he concludes.

The international roll-out of ozmi will be gradual, starting with Europe.

 

Coverpla shares the laurels of the FIFI awards

Perfume - Unisex perfume

On October 8, the Fragrance Foundation presented its awards to French perfumers. Among them, Ganymède by couturier Marc-Antoine Barrois and Parfums Bastille, both developed with Coverpla.
Each year, the Fragrance Foundation entrusts a jury of professionals with a selection of fragrances chosen according to various criteria: design, launch, innovation, commitment... The Awards presented during a virtual ceremony pay tribute to the entire fragrance industry, from juice to packaging.

100 % Coverpla packaging

In the "independent niche brands" category, Ganymède fragrance is the fruit of a partnership between fashion designer Marc-Antoine Barrois and perfumer Quentin Bisch. Coverpla was responsible for its development from A to Z. As for the fragrance, we quote "an intoxicatingly sober scent in the image of the couturier's dreamlike universe".
In terms of packaging, the brand chose a bottle, cap and pump cover from the Coverpla collection, combined with an invisible pump from Silgan. Assembly and decoration are carried out in the Coverpla workshops in Nice.

Coverpla supports responsible innovation

Hors-piste, Un deux, trois, soleil, Demain promis, Pleine lune, Bataille - these are the signature fragrances that Bastille Paris defines as "natural perfumes for a free spirit". They were awarded the prize for "responsible innovation for a perfume". In line with the ISO 9235 standard, 95% of these juices are made from natural ingredients, a real challenge for perfumers!
The 100 % packaging, made in France, features a recycled cardboard case, and the bottle includes only the plastic required for the pump and cap insert. For its part, Coverpla supplied the Laura bottle from its collection, in a 50ml format. The brand chose it for its thin glass base, which avoids excess material. The catalog includes over 150 references, all designed by Coverpla and produced by partner glassmakers. The Passion cap, also from the catalog, is a further addition to the range.
