Huasheng Plastic Launch PCR-Based Empty Lip Gloss Tubes to Tackle Cosmetic Waste

In a bold move to reduce plastic pollution, our company are unveiling empty lip gloss tubes made entirely from **post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastics**, signaling a new era of circular design in cosmetic packaging.

Closing the Loop: PCR Innovations

PCR plastics, derived from recycled household waste like bottles and food containers, are being transformed into durable, high-quality lip gloss packaging. Many European Countries use customizable empty gloss tubes made with **95% PCR content, diverting over 200 tons of plastic annually from landfills.

*“PCR materials once faced skepticism for lacking ‘premium’ appeal, but advanced cleaning and molding technologies now deliver flawless finishes,”* explains Dr. Sarah Lin, Packaging Engineer at GreenLab Solutions. *“These tubes meet the same hygiene and durability standards as virgin plastic, with 40% lower carbon footprints.”*

Brands Leading the Charge
- **GlossRefill Co.** launched its *EcoTube V2* this month—a lightweight, PCR-based lip gloss tube compatible with 90% of refillable lip products. Early adopters report a 70% reduction in single-use packaging waste.

Consumer Demand Meets Regulatory Shifts
82% of consumers prefer cosmetic brands using PCR packaging, driving sales of refillable lip products. Meanwhile, stricter EU regulations now mandate **30% PCR content** in all cosmetic packaging by 2025, accelerating industry adoption.
In response, our company has developed an empty lip gloss bottle containing 30% PCR to meet the needs of the EU market and cosmetics brands that require the use of environmentally friendly packaging. The product is made of PETG material mixed with 30% PCR, and we also use stainless steel for the brush head. This brush head is not easy to breed bacteria and is more hygienic and can be used repeatedly. Please refer to the product picture below.
