The deodorant market has shown an increase in consumer desire for more eco-friendly packaging solutions in an effort to offer opportunities for sustainability. When you are looking for empty deodorant containers, considering packaging options that are more environmentally friendly may offer an advantage for your business given the increased demand by consumers for this particular feature.
A more eco-friendly solution doesn’t necessarily mean abandoning plastic altogether. Recycled plastics, such as post consumer resin ( PCR) materials can be used in place of standard plastic to offer a more environmentally conscious option for your deodorant products. Explore some of the benefits you can enjoy when ordering PCR, bioplastics, and other specialty polymer materials from DISTRIBUPACK for your empty deodorant containers.
The Market’s Demand for Eco-Friendly Products
The deodorant market is projected to experience an annual growth rate of 1.94%, and a large part of that is the surge in demand for eco-friendly products. In fact, consumer preferences are a major driving force for eco-friendly packaging specifically. While you may excel at making your deodorant using sustainable methods, DISTRIBUPACK can offer the same kind of excellence with empty deodorant containers that are more sustainable. Consumers are demanding more eco-friendly products as they become more aware of health and sustainability concerns for themselves and the environment. At DISTRIBUPACK, we offer superior-quality PCR containers as a substitute for traditional plastic stock for nearly all of our offerings.
What is PCR?
Post-consumer resin (PCR) is a type of plastic material that is made from recycled plastic that has been sorted, sterilized, reground, and repurposed. This process is significantly more sustainable than manufacturing plastic using raw virgin materials since it offers a significantly smaller carbon footprint by design. By recycling plastic, the life cycle of traditional resin is extended with additional usage all while directly decreasing the total amount of plastic that is sent to landfills overall. Some of the materials that are used to make PCR include water bottles, plastic coat hangers, and many other everyday plastic items that are just typically thrown away in the trash after being used.
Promoting a Circular Economy
Containers made from PCR do not have to be the end of the material’s life either. When your customer finishes using your product in a PCR container, they can then recycle the container and start the process again. This is the very essence of recapturing “waste” as a resource that is then manufactured into new materials and product types. By contributing to circular economic principles, the manufacturing costs can be better controlled while less plastic ends up in landfills wasting away. This works in contrast to other unsustainable materials, which may be difficult for consumers to effectively recycle due to complexity and potential contamination.
Personal Health Considerations
One of the primary reasons why the deodorant market is trending towards eco-friendly solutions is personal health awareness. Deodorants and other personal care products should be friendly to the body in all aspects, and the packaging that it is in is no exception. Just as our traditional plastic deodorant sticks are safe with no harmful chemicals, our PCR deodorant sticks offer that same health and safety benefit. By using more eco-friendly plastic solutions such as PCR, you can offer your customers more peace of mind when using your product. Plus, it can show your commitment to health and the environment as a brand especially if your formula highlights the use of natural and organic ingredients in your deodorants directly.
The Importance of Functionality
In pursuit of eco-friendly packaging, it is important to not compromise the usability of your products by the end user. When choosing eco-friendly alternatives to less sustainable packaging types, it is important to recognize that the customer still needs to be able to use the product simply with ease, understanding, and convenience. PCR empty deodorant containers from DISTRIBUPACK offer the same reliability and utilitarian applications as our traditional plastic products so you can be confident it is the absolute best.
